When ranking fighters, do you go by OFFICIAL decisions or who you think won?

If underdog won close but controversial fight i will use that to rank him a bit higher, but if the clear favorite won controversially i dotn use it to rank him higher.

if the fight is close you have to credit the official decision to judges who put in reasonable cards
if it's a robbery you call it like you see it.

I try to keep my bias for my favorire fighters under controll and go by who I think won since my rankings don't have any effect on anything anyway. If I headed a boxing organization like the WBA or a magazine like Ring that would be different and I would have to take the official decision into account. I noticed Ring did not lower Pacquiao or raise Bradley in their rankings after Bradley's win over Pacquiao.
