We really need a thread collecting the most valuable links to stuff like this. Tabulated results and collected data from various things. Google searches don't work very well at all.

 

Wilder = 160 points
5 years as WBC Champion - 10 points
10 fights against top 10 WBC opponents - 60 points
8 fights against top five WBC opponents - 56 points
4 fights against the highest ranked WBC fighter/champ at the time - 32 points
DRAWING with someone who was "the man" and would become "the man" again (Fury) - give Wilder two points

 

What?

What ratings are you using? I've heard of the WBC. I've heard of the National Boxing Association. I've heard of the Police Gazette ratings.

I've never heard of the Matt Donnellson ratings.

Even if you used the Ring ratings, Wilder has more than 21.

Fury and Ortiz were ranked in the Ring top five all five times Wilder fought them. How does Wilder end up with SIX points for fighting SIX times with guys in the Ring Top five?

 

It says FACED.

2 points for every year they were champion
6 points for every fighter they faced in the top 10
7 points for every fighter they faced in the top 5
8 points for every fighter they faced who was the highest ranked at the time
9 points for beating "the man"
4 points for beating someone who was or would become "the man"

And you only get points for fighting the NAME one time, even if you fight them multiple times?

What sense does that make? So Ali only fought Frazier once?

 

He certainly does rate very lowly when you don't include the fighters he fought or beat who were rated in the top 10 or the top five ... but you do for everyone else.

Ortiz was rated in the top five Ring ratings and WBC ratings both times Wilder fought him. Bermane Stiverne was rated in the top 4 in the Ring ratings and was the WBC champ when Wilder won the title from him. Stiverne was the WBC #1 contender when Wilder defended against him. Fury was the WBC top four when Wilder fought him the first time, was the WBC#1 and Ring #1 when Wilder fought him the second time and was the World and WBC champ when Wilder fought him the third time.

No points for fighting top 10 guys multiple times. No points for defending his title TWICE against Tyson Fury. No points for fighting Tyson Fury. No points for being the third longest reigning champ of the 21st century.
But give a lot of points to guys who were in the Matt Donnellson ratings.

Makes all the sense in the world.

This type of ratings system would be good if there was a pinch of accuracy to them. But when you refuse to include actual boxing organization rankings but focus instead on ratings by a guy named Matt Donnellson ... and you can't remember if you gave SOME guys points for fighting and beating people multiple times but not others ... it tends to fall by the wayside.

How the hell does Jim Corbett have 50 points?
