For heavyweights 200x2 records make no sense, wouldn’t it be better to instead look at performance against opponents weighing over 200 pounds ?
Imagine if tomorrow a boxer turns pro who weighs under 200 pounds but is by far the hardest hitting, fastest and most skilled heavyweight of all time. He KOs Wilder, Fury and Joshua with a single jab, goes on to rule the heavyweight division for a quarter of a century and amasses a record of 800-0-0 and 800 KOs.
It is quite obvious he is the GOAT.
Then in old age he decides to come back for 2 more fights and now weighs over 200 pounds. He loses one and wins a decision on the other.
According to 200x2 record, this guy is the worst heavyweight champion in history with a bum record of 1-1 and a powder puff puncher with a 200x2 ko% of 0% !
