Why Sammy Angott ranks #114 in Boxing
Sammy Angott ranks 114th among Boxing athletes on GOAT Rank and 888th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 85.5 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 82, Peak 90, Longevity 82, Honours 84, Statistics 92. 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 1935–1950 with 16 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1941, which sets the Peak component at 90. Statistics is the defining strength of the profile at 92 out of 100, and it carries 15% of the final score. The underlying career record includes world title reigns 2, career wins 98, career bouts 126, title fights 8.
Immediately ahead sits Peter Jackson on 85.5, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Marvelous Marvin Hagler 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.
