it's this guy right here... Brayan Flores, he's also a Welterweight, which happens to be the modal division (the one with most boxers in) by fortuitous circumstance.

6(2) - 11(8) - 1
If you mean "what does NSB consider an 'average' record?" then that's a different question altogether. You'll see legit top 10 guys, even titleholders sometimes being described as 'bums' on here and P4Pers called 'average', so I'd say it really depends on what company you're keeping.
Televised fighters, the guys that grace our screens on the regular usually have winning records by a good margin, mostly are old enough to have built up a least a passable resume and had a decent number of fights and most have probably taken a loss or two... I'm pulling this outta my ass, but something like 28(20) - 3(1) - 1 would be entirely the sorta record I'd expect to see on a fighter on the main or second main billing of a significant card. But - a guy who makes it as far as a headline slot on a televised card is not in any way 'average' for the sport as a whole... they represent the cream of the crop, the top coupla % of boxers in the world, no matter how they might be refered to by us jaded boxing afficianados.Last edited by Citizen Koba; 05-02-2020, 11:04 AM.

Go to #11408 and see what you get...

....
'Less we got someone of a mathematical bent who can come up with a good approximation more easily using statistical shortcuts? Guessing you'd need to take a statistically significant sample size etc... probably be easy enough if you access to the actual raw data on the Boxrec database though. Ummm. Lemme think about that a bit... Guess you could take a random sample easy enough just based on the Boxerec #s, but how many?
....damn you.
EDIT: And now you got me looking up confidence intervals and confidence levels and standard deviations...
Ok... not sure I got this absolutely correct but I reckon that if you picked 96 records at random and averaged the W / L / D you'd end up with a 95% chance of being within 10% of the average record for the entire population (of pro boxers). I'd have to be real bored before I actually crunched the numbers though...

Match the 96 random numbers generated above to the record #s on the Boxrec global P4P list (linked below) and you're good to go I reckon.

A quick scan has Lonnie B... a guy I'm quite fond of for what it's worth, as the highest ranker at #199 p4p (though the ordering is kinda irrelevent for this purpose) his record is 22-5-0, next is Wlod at #209, 58-4-1, #348 Hironori Mishiro 9-0-1, then #406 Felix Verdejo 26-1-0, then #499 Cristofer Rosales at 29-5-0 etc, etc... do that 91 more times and average 'em and you're there.
Taking an average of just those 5, all of whom are in the top coupla percentiles of the boxing world you get
29 - 3 - 0
(28.8) - (3) - (0.4)
Which is actually pretty close to my estimate for a televised level fighter a coupla posts above.
I'm pulling this outta my ass, but something like 28(20) - 3(1) - 1 would be entirely the sorta record I'd expect to see on a fighter on the main or second main billing of a significant card.Last edited by Citizen Koba; 05-02-2020, 02:01 PM.

I have no ****ing clue.....who watches average boxers?
I mean, it'd be hard to do wouldn't it? Keep up with guys who never make it big? Below average would mean going to club fights and **** like that wouldn't it? Not even televised for the most part. Hell, i'm not sure there are enough normies on TV to actually get a handle on what a regular, middle of the road, fighter actually pans out to.
Top tens and big names are hard enough to keep up with. There are what like 20 divisions? 4 bodies? I'd be interested in the average fellas, but, seems like work just to try.
