Why Amir Khan ranks #120 in Boxing

Amir Khan ranks 120th among Boxing athletes on GOAT Rank and 1070th of 2289 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 80.3 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 74, Peak 88, Longevity 82, Honours 76, Statistics 84. Those categories are normalised against the full Boxing reference universe of 267 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.

The record covers 2005–2022 with 18 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2006, which sets the Peak component at 88. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 88 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes world titles 2, olympic medals 1, professional wins 34, career knockouts 21.

Immediately ahead sits Tyson Fury on 80.3, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Jake LaMotta on 80.2. The position moves whenever the verified record moves: new titles, new seasons or a corrected source all feed straight back into the same formula, and every change is dated on this profile.
