...and got to thinking about something.
From a skill/statistical standpoint, discounting things like home town fighter, judges, ref, etc., if you were to make your own set of "power rankings" for professional boxers, which categories would you apply the most weight?
For instance, in NFL, you might use strength of schedule, and margin of victory.
Maybe something like strength of opponents, based on who the opponents fought (maybe even narrow it to last 3 fights)? Accuracy? KO%? Just kind of digging for some ideas.
