Yeah, I see what you are saying. On the other hand though there are still many people on ESB that believe the US media and that 100 out of a 100 in any major sport are americans (except for a few thrown in for political correctness and to make it look like an international ranking).

As long as those people abound here there will be others that are naturally sceptical.
I am sure that there are instances as you say where they are too sceptical.

Regarding the bias from smaller countries is certainly true that it exists too. However, the point is that the US fans and media far far out-shout any bias from elsewhere. If the US fans were less biased (or rather if there were less biased fans, because for sure there are also many clever american fans that don't believe the world stops at the US borders) then we could see and take notice of the other biased fans. As it is now there may be some rowdy mice in the room, but everyone is talking about the rowdy elephant in the room because - it is a rowdy elephant.

The Americans are convinced James Toney was the P4P number one in the past! Sometimes I become frustrated with explaining the same facts to Americans over and over again and just want to kill the lot of them. But I refuse to resort to terrorism to impose my boxing opinions on America, that would make me nearly as bad as they are. Even though I am 100% right.
