Boxing Olympic Rankings

[Ogreman 355]

So I decided to try and figure out who would be the likely qualifiers at the world qualifying tournaments and well many many hours, lots of procrastinating and a contender for the ugliest excel file ever created later I ended up ranking every boxer who competed at the continental qualifying tournaments and doing well some other stuff too.

 

Obviously these are just my rankings and well I will fully admit aren't especially accurate even if I did spend a significant amount of time thinking about every position but they should at least be the most accurate boxing rankings out there.

 

Just quickly in terms of boxing rankings that already exist the IBA have a ranking which is based on points system based on how far you get into their competitions. Even in a normal cycle where everyone was competing in the IBA's competitions they would still be woefully inaccurate because of the way they are calculated. They are also self perpetuating given that these rankings determine seedings which then effect how far into competitions boxers get. Anyway they are completely useless.

 

Then boxrec has a ranking system which is accurate enough and as I understand based on the quality of your opponents you beat/ lose to. It does fall into weird pitfalls  where sometimes it overrates/ underrates one group of boxers and then when they keep beating/ losing to eachother and it gets stuck in a cycle and ends up with some weird rankings as a result. Also if you keep losing to good boxers without fighting bad ones or only beat bad boxers without ever fighting good ones it can end up with weird rankings. Finally while boxrec results database is very good it is still missing a lot of competitions particularly outside of Europe.

 

And then finally Taylor O'Higgins (worth a follow on twitter) used to do an amateur boxing rankings on the Fight site and he is a boxing coach so obviously knows a lot more about the actual boxing side of things than I would. He has mentioned doing the rankings again a couple of times on twitter but as far as I know hasn't posted them.

 

So ye hopefully these fill a bit of a hole and help with some of the qualifying/ medal projections on this site where some of the boxing related projections have been a bit hit and miss.

 

I'll only post the top 50 boxers in each weightclass and the top 60 or so in my country rankings but I have linked an Excel file with the complete rankings of every weight class and ranked every country plus the same stuff but broken down by continental if anyone wants to look at them.

Right so here goes, W54kg was by far the trickiest weight to rank by a mile, lots of good but no great boxers.

Index

• Example : Qualified boxer.
• Example : Projected qualifier at the 2 world qualifying tournements.
• First underline : Number of qualifiers in a given weightclass.
• Second underline :Threshold for realistic qualifiers at the world qualifying tournaments.  
• >/<  Boxer could/ should be ranked higher (>) or lower (<) than they are.
• ?     Boxer may be replaced for the world qualifying tournaments/ may not be their country's best boxer.
• ??    Boxer didn't compete at continental qualifiers for reasons I am unaware of.
• (F)/ (L) - This is just a note that Tugsjargal Nomin-Erdene and Monkhor Namuun seemingly have swapped weightclasses as they both competed in differetn weight classes from where they commpeted at Asian Games at the Koln boxing cup. 
• These rankings include every boxer that competed at any of the continental Olympic qualifying tournaments.
• I've listed the Russian and Belarussian world championships squads here under the rankings and an approximate ranking for them. The majority of these boxers as I understand are affiliated with their respective militaries and will not be eligible to qualify for the Olympics.
• I've also added an approximate ranking for boxers who missed their continental qualifiers or are clearly more talented than the boxer that competed for their country at the continental qualifying tournaments and who would be in with a chance of qualifying for the Olympics. This could have been a more extensive list and I would expect lots of countries to tinker with their squads for the world qualifyiers but for simplicity I opted to restrict them to only clear cut cases

@Ogreman where would Sara Kali be in the women’s 66kg rankings? She actually won the Canadian Boxing Trials for the first World Qualifier, although if she can’t book her ticket there, Cavanaugh will have another chance in a head-to-head battle for a spot at the second World Qualifier.

● Ranking system is a scale starting at 77 and then declining at declining intervals down to 6 points for the 40th ranked boxer in each weight class. Beyond the top 40 boxers in a weightclass the points assigned are a function of the total number of boxers in a given weightclass.

● It's a predominantly arbitrary point allocation system.

● Country rankings are a cumalative total of their respective indivual boxers ranking points. Highest possible country score is a 1000.

● Projected qualifiers refers to the number of boxers already qualified per nation plus the boxers that would fill the world qualifying tournament quota places based on my rankings. Naturally, they do not include the nine universality quota places.

● Realistic qualification ceiling is the number of boxers I perceive to be above a given threshold in every weight class below which I think a boxer would need a very lucky draw or favorable judging decisions to be in with a chance of qualifying at the world qualiying tournaments.

● Projected medallists are just the top four in every weightclass although it should be noted that these rankings are an assesment of how I would rank things now and not necessarily a projection for how I see the Olympics playing out.

● Medal ceiling is the total number of boxers who I would consider medal contenders. Medal contenders are roughly the top 8/9 ranked boxers in every weightclass but some weightclasses do differ slightly from that (High of 10, low of 6). Boxers outside this threshold will obviously win some medals at the Olympics given how volatile and unpredictable boxing can be but the vast majority of Olympic medals will be won by boxers inside these thresholds.

 

 

So I designed a ranking system outlined in part above to look at which countries had the strongest Olympic squads. This is not an assesment of the best boxing countries just how good they're Olympic squad is. Most of the results line up with what I expected but obviously there are a few strange ones.

Thanks for a huge job, it really simplifies future predictions.

 

Here are some insights from Ukrainian squads (not confirmed yet, but 70% possible according to the Trials-National Champs):

Marianna Basanets (UKR)

Basanets lost at the Trials, so there can be a replacement with Anastasia Molochko (not so well-known boxer but we will see what she brings)

Maria Bova (UKR) ?

Anastasia Chernokolenko (UKR

You got it right, Bova can be replaced, and her replacement is Anastasia Chernokolenko, who left no crumbs on all of her opponents in the Ukrainian Champs including 5th place in Tokyo Lysenko and Bova herself. To my mind, Chernokolenko looks really powerful in 66, so it would be interesting. 

 

Meanwhile, Chernokolenko will be replaced in 75 by youngster Karolina Makhno, who placed fifth at the 2021 WCH

Taras Bondarchuk (UKR)

He is out probably, he decided to move to non-Olympic 60 and lost in the semifinals there. Our hope for this weight is another young athlete Aider Abduraimov. 

 

26 minutes ago, Ogreman said:

Yaroslav Khartysz (UKR)  < ?

It's also right, Khartsyz is likely to be replaced with Danyil Zamorylo in the first tournament, he shockingly lost to him in the final of the Ukrainian Champs

Finally I wanted to do a similar thing the country ranking above but for continents. Last time I brought like this up on this site I managed to start a very circular and aimless debate about the merit of continental quotas so to be clear this is much more about comparing Europe, Asia and the Americas than the merit of Oceania's quotas. Also the continental quotas were assigned based off performances in Tokyo where Russia won six medals so while Asia matches Europe in some of the men's weights points wise. It doesn't necessarily mean the quota allocations were wrong.

@Ogreman where would Sara Kali be in the women’s 66kg rankings? She actually won the Canadian Boxing Trials for the first World Qualifier, although if she can’t book her ticket there, Cavanaugh will have another chance in a head-to-head battle for a spot at the second World Qualifier. 

I did actually see this result, It was just an error that she wasn't listed at the bottom of the rankings. I put her 29th but obviously beating Cavanagh merits putting her higher but at the same time her historic results aren't very good.
