Opponents are ranked by how often they shared a stage and how big the stage was, not by reputation. A meeting is one contest where both competed in the same division and both were placed.

Win rate here is first-place finishes as a share of all 5 professional contest results. It is published only where a career holds at least five, because below that a single placing moves the figure by twenty points or more.
