Oh that just crushed my delicate ego. Stop, you're so insensitive ;-) but your oblivious bias is kinda cute.

In terms of the overall scoring from the UK Sky Sports team:

* Paulie Malignaggi = 116-112 to Ward
* Matthew Macklin = 115-113 to Ward
* Spencer Fearon = 115-113 to Ward
* Paul Smith by three points to Ward
* Tony Bellew & Johnny Nelson 114-114 a draw
* Adam Smith = 114-113 to Ward
* Eddie Hearn = 114-113 to Ward
This unanimous agreement by 8 out of 8 that Kovalev didn't win is suspicious as hell, since 73% of boxing experts gave Kovalev the win.

On the other hand, if Kovalev was English, these hacks would be screaming bloody murder for 6 months.
The "73%" statistic you quote does not represent reality since it was only based on a sample size of sixty media scores, not the entire population (i.e. calculated from all the media scores in existence).

I’m supremely confident that I could carefully produce my own list of media scores, approaching or perhaps even exceeding sixty journalistic opinions, to dishonestly justify a claim that 73% of the media actually believed that Ward won.

Unfortunately, that’s the nature of statistics… their accuracy depends on how big the sample they’re supposed to reflect.
