    I dont get the hate on Rafael. He actually says some very sane things and calls everyone out that needs to be called out. Of course he does mess up like all humans do but he is normally pretty good with his assessments.

    I did hear he called berto-ortiz for berto. I think he might have been drinking a bit too much that night.

    he's a biased, spineless mother****er.

    he talks so much **** about david haye but when he was asked about david haye on british tv with haye there dan started sucking his balls talking about how great haye is.

    Hopefully HBO coddled fighters will have to take decent fights now. Fat Dan knows good and bad matches, he just ****s up the scoring sometimes.

    Really? I'd love to see that video. Did Haye call him out for all the **** he had talked?

    say what you wnat about rafael but he cares about boxng as much as we all do and his intentions are good, it will be mroe from a fans perspective than a business one.

    Why dont HBO do a public poll. I think if the public votes for a fight, they will watch it.

    He may be biased but he knows which fights need to get made in the sport. Smart move on HBO's part.

    I would have preferred Brian Kenny ..Rafeal is as much of a poser as Kellerman !

    you'd think that but when you're under someones payroll you tend to criticize them a lot less.

    HBO probably hired the guy to give their in house fighters more publicity.
