    How Split Decision Rank’s Boxers

    Results

    Wins, losses, and draws form the foundation of each fighter’s position. Activity matters — boxers must stay active to remain ranked.

    Performance

    The manner of victory or defeat counts: dominance, ring control, and the quality of the performance are factored in.

    Track Record

    We assess recent form and strength of opposition — fighters must beat relevant, ranked opponents to climb the list.
