    Also does anyone have the scores of British news outlets and the fight broadcaster (BT?), it seems a bit unfair to have only American media.

      They didn't buy Ring Magazine just to pump up Golden Boy fighters. They also bought it to trash fighters they don't like.

        LOL, suuuuuuuure. Also, Frank Warren is aligned with ESPN and Top Rank now so they probably have an agenda against him too so you may be right.

          So 40% had Wilder or a draw? Probably the closest scores to every elicit such emotional responses.

            Because Ring has consistently treated Showtime fighters unfairly.

            And it makes absolutely no sense to point to the propaganda arm of a major promoter as some sort of independent and unbiased source. We know Ring isn't independent, it's owned by Golden Boy. We know it's not unbiased, Ring's own reporters confirmed that and quit in disgust over it. So there's no logic in paying any attention to Ring.

              Shows how naive you are.

              It's not just corruption when they keep the middleweight title on Canelo despite the failed tests, it's also corruption when they strip Stevenson to try to trick people into thinking Ward vs Kovalev is "lineal."

                You still haven't explained why a GBP employee would have any reason to favour Fury over Wilder.

                  Dan Rafael had it 114-112 Wilder and everyone was giving him ***** on Twitter, lol
                  Lemme guess, you had it 9-3 Fury ?

                    Meh 60-40 Fury vs Wilder/Draw is not overwhelming. That's about what you'd expect coming out of a close fight between a boxer and a puncher.

                    I bet if you ran the same for Canelo-GGG 1 you'd 70-30 GGG.

                      Because Wilder is Showtime's top star. Oscar has a grudge against Haymon and has used Ring to harm Haymon fighters consistently.
