Not a bug but an adjustment needed. We use boxrec formula for boxer score. However for some reason after 20 years we get values of 50,000 for boxrec. I just checked boxrec and not a single boxer there is over 2000. PBF is at 1,700. So we have some issue. The formula seem to be correct but our values are now though the roof and that has direct effect on boxer wages, trade value, etc. So I will adjust this value and put safeguards in place that it does not have such a drastic effect.
What does that mean to you? The trade value of your boxers will go down meaning that your gym level might decrease. Keep an eye for it. If you gym level goes down as usually you will still be able to keep all your boxers that you already have but might not be able to sign new ones until you gym level goes back up.

The best way to adjust it in my opinion is like so - any boxrec value over 256 will be recalculated as follows 256+(currentvalue-256)/2 .... this will be done for a few turns until we get to values of about 1600 for our world champs. The charts plotting the increase in value will take a hit at first, but I will adjust historic values later once we arrive at our end-point.

The problem with boxrec rating is that while great in real life, B2G is not like real life. IN real life boxers do not fight every 7 weeks and they do not always fight the opponents that are next to them in rankings. Here we do force #1 to fight #2 and so forth so we end up with ratings going thought the roof after x game years.

i will also adjust best score for each boxer accordingly so we will have consistency there.

it should only effect the very top dogs. Because the formula for earning is based on spectators*ticket price*fight interest. Then at world level there is an additional adjustment that I added that is a multiplier if combined record of two fighters is greater then 5*times the average in that division at world level. ( I added that when we realized that it was not possible to keep world champs because they asked for so much money and would never be profitable - that was done about 8 month ago)
So it used to be average score in division was 7,000. Li + Oyal score at 70,0000. So their usual payout is doubled (70,000/7,000*5=2)... But now average is 5,000 and Li + Oyal score at 33,000 so multiplied by only about 1.3. 33,0000/5,000*5~1.32
But as you can see it would only effect these very top guys because the modification is only made when combined score of both is over 5*times the average. . This is only done at world level. So really only world champions are effected if you look at fight for #3 in World vs #4, etc you will see no difference.
On positive site that the boxers demand will now be lower for all boxers with score over 256.

Pav there's something probably related to the latest change - I've got this message in my financial report:
Your gym has a low cash balance or a negative cash balance.
That is OK - as long as you still have boxers in your gym you will avoid mandatory administration(bankruptcy). If you would rather start over instead of struggling with no money you will see an option to submit to administration above when your balance is sufficiently negative.
But my current cash balance is over $55M...
