Why this placement
Why this placement
Tom Sharkey ranks #867 with a 71.89 score on the 60-100 H&G All-Time Index. The data-derived proxy signature-win marker points to a win over Charles Kid McCoy in 1899, because that defeated opponent carries a 1,768 Peak-form Elo in the same v1.2.3 export. The parsed-opponent data records 2 reversal patterns, including a later loss to Bob Fitzsimmons after an earlier win over the same resolved opponent. Holding the score back, sustained head-to-head rating level sits below the field of ranked fighters in this release. Data Confidence is Medium, so the rating should be read with wider uncertainty. Peak-form Elo is 1,598 (±172), separate from the 60-100 career Index.
