Here's my opinion... I think that for the most part, people vote honestly on who they thought won. However, often people in the same crews have similar styles. When this is combined with the friendship between two people, it just makes one more naturally inclined to think that their buddy's punch was better and it's hard to have an objective view. I don't think people really cheat on purpose, but I definately think that having your own crew vote on your battles is an advantage. Past statistics will prove it and show how rare it is that crew members vote against each other.

Vote - No
