Legacy
Frederick won at amateur and professional level across a decade in which the professional ranks barely existed. The record is thin on famous contest names because most of those contests are gone, which is exactly why nobody has written it up.
Most-met rivals
Compare any two athletes →In 4 meetings, Warren Frederick finished ahead of Don Ross 4 times to 0.
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.
Sources
Competition placings on this page come from our own contest database and cover 1967 to 1985.
Contests of this era awarded a height or weight CLASS title and then a separate OVERALL title, and several also gave a Most Muscular award. In the table below, a class win and an overall placing at the same contest are both correct and are not a contradiction, and a Most Muscular row is an award given at that contest rather than a win of it.
Win rate here is first-place finishes as a share of all 13 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.
No height, weight or birthdate on record.
