How database updates are handled
2
Review before publishing
New fighters, events, bouts, and updates are reviewed before they become live database records, reducing duplicate and low-confidence entries.
3
Preserve entity relationships
Bouts connect fighters to events, promotions, weight classes, belts, and rankings so every profile strengthens the broader kickboxing graph.
How P4P ratings work
Fighters start at 1000. After each completed bout, the rating movement depends on expected outcome, opponent strength, K-factor volatility, victory method, and championship stakes. Beating a higher-rated opponent earns more; losing to a lower-rated opponent costs more.
Stored vs displayed score
The stored rating remains intact. Inactivity penalties only reduce the displayed score so active fighters are represented more fairly in rankings.
Rating modifiers
Volatility K-factor
Ring rust
> 24 months inactive
K = 60
Rookie
5 bouts or fewer
K = 60
Elite
> 15 bouts and > 1150 rating
K = 20
Veteran
Everyone else
K = 32
Higher K means bigger rating swings. Conditions are evaluated top-to-bottom; the first match wins.
Method and stakes
KO / TKO
x1.2
Split / majority decision
x0.8
UD, draw, other
x1.0
Title fight
x1.15
Championship stakes stack with method modifiers, so a title-fight KO receives both boosts.

Corrections and transparency
Methodology improves as the database improves
KickboxHub rankings are independent from promotional rankings. If a record, result, fighter profile, or event page needs correction, the best path is to contact the project team with a source and the exact update needed.
