That's not what he said, he didn't say"I believe I won a close fight", he said he clearly won but the business had to save the GGG vs Canelo fight, CLEARLY the usual baby crying.
Class act like the other mate said...

What's the difference? He believed he clearly won the fight. Not showing class would be something like filing a protest or refusing to leave the ring. The fight was close. He thought it was a clear victory. A lot of people thought he won but it was close enough and Golovkin got the victory. I could see if he got dominated and said the same thing. It looks like he's being criticized for the same thing every other boxer does when the decision isn't favorable to them and there's controversy. That doesn't make him classless. It makes him human.

No no no, he said that he won but lost on cards because the Canelo fights has to happen and he was a victim of the business.

that's all speculation and he's accusing the officials of being corrupt when in reality he got his ass kicked in most people eyes and officials (including the 3 judges + Lederman).

I wouldn't say sore loser, but class act def not LOL

Not like he himself "dominated". Golovkin clearly edged that fight IMO, scored a KD no way Jacobs won 7 rounds. I barely found him 5 rounds, 6 at best, his flurries were hitting Golovkin arms all night.

You don't get win based on effort and sympathy.

Miller VS Fury would be a helluva fight

Again, I don't see the problem here. That was his justification for why he thought the judges didn't give him the nod. That sounds like rational thinking to me. I'm sure other people believed the same thing he did.

Nothing new here. I'm sure a majority of fans and a good portion of boxers believe the bold is true. Lederman has shown in the past he's unreliable with his score cards especially when it's an HBO fighter.

I wouldn't say sore loser, but class act def not LOL.

Then he's joining a long list of classless boxers. Marquez, Pacquiao, Golovkin, Kovalev, Hagler, Hopkins, Lomachenko, De la Hoya... I could go on and on.

Not like he himself "dominated". Golovkin clearly edged that fight IMO, scored a KD no way Jacobs won 7 rounds. I barely found him 5 rounds, 6 at best' his flurries were hitting Golovkin arms all night.

So if you think he lost then it's absolute gospel. What about the good amount of fans and people in the press that thought he won?
