Why Jeff Chandler ranks #133 in Boxing
Jeff Chandler ranks 133rd among Boxing athletes on GOAT Rank and 983rd of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 85.0 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 86, Peak 94, Longevity 72, Honours 84, Statistics 90. 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 1976–1984 with 9 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1981, which sets the Peak component at 94. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 94 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes title defences 9, career wins 33, knockouts 18, world title reigns 1.
Immediately ahead sits Seniesa Estrada on 85.0, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Sandy Saddler on 84.9. 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.
