He kept up with Saitama. There IS a calc, but unfortunately the website that has it changed its policy so we currently cant see it.

The rating comes from the fact that, while Saitama can of course blitz him if he wanted to, Boros still somewhat kept up with, blocked attacks from and landed hits on a Saitama was more serious than the one that jumped from the moon.
Without that though, he'd still be At least Massively Hypersonic+. Since he's remarked by Saitama as being the most powerful person he ever fought at that time, including the numerous people he faced prior who are MHS+. As well as by WoG being on par with Garou, who can blitz S-Classes, including the especially fast ones.

How are you judging levels of "seriousness"? And he only blocked attacks during the second transformation, nothing was blocked or reacted to when he was using Meteoric Burst.Ryukama said:
Why not rate him off the fact that he can do the equivlent of "throw a baseball at 90 mph and then wait a second, run up to it and grab it outta the air" when he turns Saitama into a projectile?

Saitama when ridiculously casual did his Sub-Relativistic feat by jumping from the moon. Saitama needed to put more effort than that to be faster than Boros.

Basically what Matt said.
No it isn't. If Saitama without any effort at all can do a Sub-Rel feat, yet he puts even a small marginal part of effort against Boros, we can logically deduce Boros is faster than that feat.
Do you really think Boros couldn't survive that mountain punch he threw at Genos or that "punch" he threw at Sonic by accident? Those hits that Saitama did extensively holding back and not trying at all logically wouldn't be as strong as the ones he threw towards Boros while restraining much less and actually being intentional.
It's that same reasoning. If a character a speed feat completely easily, and puts some effort into fighting someone, then that someone scales to the easy feats.

Saitama was visibly putting more effort during his Consecutive Normal Punches than during his moon jump.
When Saitama jumped from the moon he was still drawn in a simplistic goofy style, but when he repeatedly punched Boros he was actually detailed.
Since the two scenes literally happen one after the other, one can reasonably infer that Saitama was putting much more effort into doing that than the former feat
Which is why Boros gets Sub-Relativistic Speed and Multi-Continental Durability.

Let me give you another example.
Saitama accidentally one shot Suiryu without even intentionally trying to fight him.
Boros tanked a punch from Saitama that he threw with the intent to kill him with it.
Which punch do you think is stronger? That one he threw at Suiryu or the one he threw at Boros? Although my example is far more extreme than this one, it's the same thing. Saitama put no effort into his moon jump, yet a tiny bit of marginal effort keeping up with Boros. Therefore it can be reasonably deduced that the Boros > the moon jump.

I'm just explaining the general reasoning behind why that rating was implemented.
If others disagree upon scaling in such a way, or consider that Saitama was indeed serious when performing the moon jump feat, then I'd suggest Boros be rated "At least Massively Hypersonic+, likely/possibly higher".
This being since he's still regarded as Saitama as the most powerful person he ever fought at the time and did put some marginal effort towards. As opposed to the plethora of MHS+ people he's effortlessly or even accidentally blitzed prior. Plus him being comparable to Garou, who can casually blitz S-Classes that are capable of blitzing other S-Classes that blitz MHS+ characters.

The calc was mach 38,000~ for the moon jump.
