That's what you are guessing. You have no facts to back that up.I mean, the majority of those people are people who drifted in from the heavies on fight night never to be seen again. Having Golovkin winning is completely reasonable in a fight that close, but if you polled the people who regularly post here (i.e. people who closely follow boxing), you'd almost definitely get considerably different results.

Pinched from reddit..
That's what you are guessing. You have no facts to back that up.
What about how the media have scored it? Seems like the majority of sherdoggers and the media scored it for GGG.
It's too easy too play elitism and discount the average sherdogger from the boxing forum regulars. It just so happens to suit your view point this time around.I have no facts to back up that the regulars vote differently from the clowns who came in from the heavies en masse and cried robbery? You can look at who voted for who you know.

Again you skirt the elephant in the room. Why did the media experts overwhelmingly side with GGG?If you want to poll clowns from the heavies who cry robbery over this fight and declare that boxing is a dead sport and hold that up as some kind of evidence that Golovkin was robbed, that's your business. You do at least concede that I have "facts" to support there is a difference in the way a poll among regular posters here would go between the one that exists here, though, right? It's more or less impossible to take robbery claims seriously for this fight.
Just under 40 % of sherdog lays down the truth.^ And yet over 60% of Sherdog thinks GGG won that fight. Sherdog lays down the truth....
Make your own argument as to why Golovkin won or not. No one gives 2 shits how Dan Rafael and Kevin Iole scored the fight.Again you skirt the elephant in the room. Why did the media experts overwhelmingly side with GGG?
