    You are going to start insulting my wife now?

    Just because you can't hang with me in a boxing debate? Then embarrass yourself by going on and on about how sexy you think another man is?

    You aren't worth my time. I'm done with you.

    That means yes and she would also be keen on some two on one action involving Haye and Wlad...

    I think he is not that of journalist, he is more of a columnist isn't he?

    Who cares? There have been bits of corn in my **** whose opinion counts for more than Dan Rafael's.

    That means you guys are a bunch of lowlifes who don't have a hot wife of your own.:good If you did, you bums wouldn't have to sit around fantasizing about mine.

    The fact that when you guys even fantasize about another woman... you are fantasizing about her with David Haye shows exactly where your head is at. What a pathetic life you guys have.:rofl

    Haye fan #1 "Oh my god, mate... look at that bird!"

    Haye fan #2 "Can you imagine David Haye having a go at her?"

    Haye fan #1 "No doubt, mate. She would be in heaven with his powerful body, while she stared into his beautiful eyes."

    Haye Fan #2 "**** geeza, that would be amazing!"

    I wasn't serious, hence the wink. I don't take any debate on ESB that seriously and I hope you weren't truly offended. Just ESB banter.

    I've heard a Rafael defender use the columnist argument before. The fact is that he's the lead writer (and often the only writer) for ESPN and does everything from reporting, compiling rankings, etc.
     
  10. Dan Rafael is a fat sack of ****.

    Does he refer to Haye as "Ducker" in his articles. If it's only in his twitter account, then that is seperate from his job and he is entitled to express his opinion and sound as childish as he pleases.

    Rafael use to always dog out both of the Klitschkos a few years ago before they proved beyond all doubt that they were best in the division. Maybe if Haye steps up in the ring, Rafael will start giving him some credit too!

    He does it in the weekly chats for sure but I don't think he calls him that in a proper article.

    He does it everywhere. He even does it in the rankings:

    When Klitschko said he would reschedule his postponed defense against Dereck Chisora (14-0), David "The Ducker" Haye found another way out of their proposed fight, saying he wouldn't allow Klitschko to take an interim bout. Fine. So Klitschko will fight Chisora, then move on to a likely September bout against Tomasz Adamek. Remember this: Haye, with a thin résumé and no real legacy as a heavyweight, needs Klitschko a whole lot more than Klitschko needs him.
    Next: April 30 vs. Chisora.

    All "The Ducker" had to do to get the July 2 fight with Wladimir Klitschko was sign the agreed-upon contract. But he threw a fit when Klitschko said he would take an interim fight and encouraged Haye to do the same. Instead, Haye took his ball and went home. So he can follow through on his promise to retire by his 31st birthday in October, and let's see how he is remembered.
    Next: TBA.

    hes an awful journalist.

    anyone could do a better job than him.

    he has contacts and collects news,but he doesnt give good articles with much insight or good consideration into three sides to every story,one persons side,the other side and then the truth.

    he must have a thing agaisnt brit fighters.

    not only does he disrespect Haye,and only while hiding behind his computer screen,he also has anti british rankings!.

    he strangely believes everything the klitschkos say,and can not fault them for anything,but you bet your ass if Haye used the contracts and such that klitschkos do he would be furious!.

    he allows spamming off haye and floyd on his chats,yet this actually goes agiasnt the terms of conditions of his own chats!.haaaa.

    He ranks khan at no 3,when hes fought malignaggi,kotelnik and maidana,all top opponents in the divsion,all dangerous in different ways,and he beat them all pretty convingly and entertaingly. alexander struggled with kotelnik,and bradley fought peterson,not the as good as paulie or as dangerous as maidana.

    also he ranks froch as no 3!.and bute and ward above him.

    frochs last few fights: pascal(win),taylor(ko win),dirrel(close win),kessler(close loss),abraham(complete shut out.)

    no one can say that ward and bute have fought better opposition than that,or fought whay better than froch has fought!.or fought in so many different places.

    that guy is a fat joke of a man and a so called"journalist",hes a disgrace to standards of decency.
