i believe boxwreck! no questions asked!
I don't know if Floyd is number one but he's certainly amongst the top ten or 15 fighters of all time without a doubt. By any measure you would have to include Floyd among the greatest fighters of all time.

Easily the worst top 15 ATG ranking I have ever seen
Having Mayweather at #1 was bad enough, but the rest of the list is a joke too. Azuma Nelson ahead of Duran? Wlad ahead of Harry Greb? Robinson behind Moore?
who the hell came up with this crap?

I don't care what anyone says. Apollo Creed should be ranked number 4!
Just copy and paste that link and the rankings will come up ... Also if you have any ideas on how to improve the app please let me know. I'm a stats and data guy by trade.
I'm definitely very curious about how your rankings are calculated. I was planning to read through your code but it's not particularly convenient to do so on my phone. I'll take a look later and see if there's anything I can suggest.

a while back I created my own rankings based on boxrec data (only up to 2014). I included factors like years in the ring magazine top 10, years as a champion, elo rating, win / ko percentage. Before you make fun of the rankings and say Tim Bradley is better than Marvin Hagler click on combined to get the rankings based on all factors. you can sort by any of the individual factors or adjust how important they are. Also I know this is flawed because multiple boxers with the same name were grouped together. but I think it is pretty cool to play around with and both Floyd and Manny should be up there based on the factors I calculated.

They also have a 'What If' feature that guesses the odds of two fighters against each other.
Mayweather 99% to beat SRL (Also Pacquiao and Khan 99% to beat SRL. BR is convinced SRL is ass I guess).
Pacquiao 80% to beat Amir Khan (That might be right if Khan had a chin).
Pacquaio 50/50 with Canelo Alvarez (I wonder if they adjust for weight at all)
Thurman 50/50 with Porter (Sure)
Brook 70% to beat Vargas (Maybe this feature isn't totally useless)
