    A lot of these boxing writers, are biased towards promotional companies. Like Steve Kim.. he get's GGG exclusives, so to him GGG is God....

    Dan Rafael loves Top Rank... so he does the same.

    Very hard to find an unbiased reporter now and days. Enews Ellie, is always at Robert Garcia's Gym.... so he is biased there.

    He dislikes Roach, so he talks horrible about anyone who Roach trains....

    Radio Raheem, he is cool in my opinion. He is straight up, and asks difficult questions to whomever he asks questions to.

    Rigo is boring. He also has a Glass Jaw which explains his fighting style.

    I don't care that he's boring. What I don't like about his is his arrogance and delusion. He think $1.5 million is too little for him to fight Lomachenko. Like on what planet does Rigo deserve $1 million, let alone $1.5 million against anyone at this point?

    Rigo is boring? wtf? There needs to be a mandatory 1 year boxing experience requirement when talking about artists of boxing like Rigo.

    I watch him so intently i tune out everything around me. Its like he is painting with his fists.

    If he fought like Kirkland he would've been knocked out nearly every fight in his career.

    There's something to be said about fighters being payed by their skill level, but unfortunately that's not reality. In reality fighters are paid by the measure of their popularity more often than for their skill. It's ironic that popularity does not follow skill level. :think

    Popularity is also determined by activity. If a fighter sits for 15 months, how can they increase their popularity? They just can't. Regardless of how "boring" they are, they can gain more and more fans by fighting often.

    That's something a lot of diva fighters fail to comprehend.

    people like fat Dan ain't proper boxing fans especially if they can't see the brilliance of rigo, he has a agenda to certain fighters which is sad because you don't see other reporters who rip their own product as much as boxing plebs do

    Rafael is pro Top Rank. It's pretty obvious.
