Another post mentioned a particular thread, "Miscellaneous Boxers" which is, at this juncture, the most active (virtually posting every day). But it's not the only place to find boxers not included in the official pool.
Bear has been running his "Tomato Cans" thread for years; the "Ratings of the Day Council" (not active recently) contains some excellent alternative ratings of boxing greats and boxers from the 1950s/60s. Ice Tea has a journeyman thread while David Myers started up a thread for "Non-Heavyweights". And if you're looking for some obscure characters, I have my own ratings in The Spice O' Life." And there are many others, as well.
All of these threads contain excellent ratings and are worth taking a look at for those who don't find who they want in the official pool.
I just didn't want anyone new to the forum to get the wrong impression that there was just one thread in the Mods section for ratings not in the official data pool.

Yeah, I typed miscellaneous fighters because I mistakenly thought that poster had offered a request in that thread. I've gotten many rankings from Bear & a lot of DL's from threads from ages ago. Vistaman is another with a lot of good stuff.
