Why Lucia Rijker ranks #56 in Boxing

Lucia Rijker ranks 56th among Boxing athletes on GOAT Rank and 847th of 1063 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 79.1 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 84, Peak 90, Longevity 62, Honours 74, Statistics 86. 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 1996–2004 with 8 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1997, which sets the Peak component at 90. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 90 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes professional boxing wins 17, knockouts 14, kickboxing record wins 37, kickboxing world titles 4.

Immediately ahead sits Anthony Joshua on 79.7, a gap of 0.6 points. Directly behind is Salvador Sánchez on 78.8. 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.
