While I understand where you're coming from, I don't think the poll was serious at all. In fact, it would be the first time in the history of the sport if an opponent who won a poll actually got a fight.(Gotta check to see if a poll was ever used)
Adding to that, what boxer other than Khan would actually feel entitled to a championship fight simply because he did win a poll (Do anyone here realize just how crazy that sounds
).
Maidana took the best approach to that polling nonsense -- "Fuck the poll, let's setup a fight between Khan and Maidana."
While Maidana could care less about polls, Khan went all in, contacting everyone he could to get a vote. Still with all that, he still only beat out Maidana by about 5K votes ....... Which is sad numbers for someone who believes he can fill a stadium.
