Why Jack "Kid" Berg ranks #32 in Boxing
Jack "Kid" Berg ranks 32nd among Boxing athletes on GOAT Rank and 310th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 89.2 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 86, Peak 92, Longevity 90, Honours 86, Statistics 94. Those categories are normalised against the full Boxing reference universe of 231 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.
The record covers 1924–1945 with 22 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1930, which sets the Peak component at 92. Statistics is the defining strength of the profile at 94 out of 100, and it carries 15% of the final score. The underlying career record includes world title reigns 1, career wins 157, career fights 192, knockouts 61.
Immediately ahead sits Virgil Hill on 89.2, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Dmitry Bivol on 89.0. 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.
