Worth opening for what the record actually credits. The finishing blow is not described as landing on the alien at all — the punch goes into the beam, and it is the wash coming off that impact which leaves him fatally injured on the deck. Everything before it he grew back from, including being pulled apart limb from limb. So the pair are separated by two ranks on a distinction most summaries collapse: the alien took three ordinary blows and a barrage that pulled him to pieces, re-formed out of all of it, and was finished by the backwash off a punch thrown at his own beam. Nothing about the order moves, but the mechanism is the part that gets misremembered.

The connecting record

Saitama killed Lord Boros in One Punch Man (manga).

Manga only. In the webcomic Metal Knight recovers the body and Genos finds it in a tank, and the source does not say whether he survives.

The victim · Lord Boros · rank 3

Crossed space on a prophecy that promised him somebody worth fighting, then absorbed three ordinary punches, a run of Consecutive Normal Punches that pulled him into pieces, and last the shockwave off a Serious Punch. He regenerated from all of it bar the last. Ranked on what he took rather than anything he landed.

Lord Boros on the One Punch Man ladder

What this does not settle

One death in one work. It is the only place the record puts these two in the same room, and it is evidence about that meeting and nothing wider — not a general matchup, not a rematch, and not a ranking of its own.

The ladder above it is argued from everything either of them has been shown doing; this page is argued from one citation.

Where the two disagree, the disagreement is the point, and it stays visible rather than being resolved by whichever of them happens to be on this page.
