● = active (a fight within 18 months of the data date); the checkbox filters to active athletes while keeping all-time rank numbers. Cross-era caveat: ratings inflate an estimated +8–14 points per year at the top; the methodology publishes raw numbers and discloses the drift rather than hiding an adjustment. Details.
