Indexes are impartial and don't have an agenda to defend Dud like you do.

Jose Benavidez was good when he was an up and coming prospect and contender training with Freddie Roach. After getting shot he never lived up to his potential and hasn't accomplished anything since. Guess which version Dud fought?

like I said, keep using indexes that weren’t even relevant to the specific opponents you referenced while real boxing fans who know the sport assess it from a perspective of actually knowing boxing.

The Index is relevant to Dud's opponents as far as recent fights go. You're not going to get around that.

For the years before...we can all judge for ourselves if names like Indongo, Benavidez, Dulorme, etc. are any better than the names that currently give him a 30th ranking in the Index.

Real, knowledgeable boxing fans should be able to tell if the Index is an outlier or if it's actually indicative of a pattern for his entire career. They don't need you to make that call for them.

He’s only had 2 fights in the last 2 years so of course he wouldn’t fit into that index based in his inactivity. Just remember that you’re a keyboarder trying to say that professional boxers who have fought on some big stages aren’t good.
