Why this fighter is ranked here

Editorial decision

01Unbeaten 6–0 record with six stoppages supplies the amateur board’s strongest combination of perfection and repeatability.

02DCS title wins at welterweight and middleweight prove the résumé across championship settings.

03Inactivity since March 2025 is a real deduction, but the multi-title all-finish résumé still holds the top position.

Evidence standard

01Completed results control; announcements never count as outcomes.

02MMA, bare-knuckle MMA, boxing, kickboxing, and Muay Thai records stay separate.

03Conflicts remain visible until stronger evidence resolves them.
