Why this placement

Methodology

Matthew Saad Muhammad ranks #368 with a 76.75 score on the 60-100 H&G All-Time Index. The data-derived proxy signature-win marker points to a win over Marvin Johnson in 1979, because that defeated opponent carries a 1,893 Peak-form Elo in the same v1.2.2 export. The parsed-opponent data records one reversal pattern: he later lost to Marvin Camel after an earlier win over the same resolved opponent. Data Confidence is Medium, so the rating should be read with wider uncertainty. Peak-form Elo is 1,829 (±176), separate from the 60-100 career Index.
