Why Matey Kaziyski ranks #150 in Volleyball
Matey Kaziyski ranks 150th among Volleyball athletes on GOAT Rank and 3085th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 82.6 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 78, Peak 88, Longevity 88, Honours 78, Statistics 82. Those categories are normalised against the full Volleyball reference universe of 308 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.
The record covers 2003–present with 22 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2009, 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 championship medals 1, italian league titles 4, champions league titles 2, club world championship titles 3.
Immediately ahead sits Brankica Mihajlović on 82.7, a gap of 0.1 points. Directly behind is Nelli Abramova on 82.6. 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.
