Why Jackie Fields ranks #119 in Boxing
Jackie Fields ranks 119th among Boxing athletes on GOAT Rank and 911th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 85.4 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 84, Peak 92, Longevity 76, Honours 88, Statistics 88. 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 1924–1933 with 10 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1929, which sets the Peak component at 92. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 92 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes olympic gold medals 1, world title reigns 2, career wins 73, knockouts 30.
Immediately ahead sits Pone Kingpetch on 85.4, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Eddie Booker on 85.4. 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.
