Why Oleksandr Usyk ranks #23 in Boxing
Oleksandr Usyk ranks 23rd among Boxing athletes on GOAT Rank and 263rd of 1063 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 87.6 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 88, Peak 92, Longevity 80, Honours 90, Statistics 88. 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 2013–present with 12 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2014, 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 undisputed reigns 2, world titles 8, olympic golds 1, career wins 24.
Immediately ahead sits Andre Ward on 88.4, a gap of 0.8 points. Directly behind is Juan Manuel Márquez 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.
