    "Didn't #Toe Haye retire anyway?"

    "At least Haye's #toe is OK."

    "Haye is a big mouth fraud. His yapping is only that. #toe"

    "At least he's not bleeding from the #toe"




    I'm assuming he thinks mentioning Haye's toe all the time is funny? I'm not sure. Haye came out and said it was a poor excuse and gave Wlad lots of credit, so I'm not sure why this fat, pathetic slob seems to want to mention it all the time.

    People moan about the state of boxing. The state of boxing is fine, I think. What is worrying, however, is that such an abysmal journalist is one of the most recognized. He's an embarrassment to people like Hugh McIlvanney or Thomas Hauser.

    Haye should walk up to him and render him unconcious.

    I hope he eats himself into an oversized early grave.

    For someone as big as he is to be cracking lame biased jokes is pathetic. As a journalist youre supposed to be unbiased. I hated David Haye but Chisora got what he deserved and was already bragging to everybody he was going to slap Haye and had already assaulted both Vit and Wlad by surprise. He got a taste of his own medicine.

    His bias of hatred toward Haye and Mayweather is ridiculous. His love for Pacquiao and Lennox are often cheesy.

    Not good for a boxing writer to be so childish and bias. I wonder if Rafael would admit that Haye had a legendary three fight run at CW. I bet he would.

    Rafael never meant anything. He is just a sports commentator who does a lot of twitter. The guys like Bernstein from the past were much better than this guy.

    I'm a huge critic of Mayweather but the way Rafael writes about him is truly pathetic. If he wrote in the same way on ESB, he'd be considered a troll. I'm absolutely serious too. If he went from thread to thread, mentioning Haye's toe and Mayweather being a chicken, he'd be considered a pathetic troll.

    It's embarrassing.

    Have you seen the way he talks to the head of the WBA? It's like Rafael is the one who is of higher standing. He's acting dominant to a guy who sanctions thousands of fights, fighters, in a billion dollar industry. Rafael is just a writer who has no bearing on the sport, yet he feels self righteous and why? Because the WBA don't always give the belt to the right fighters?

    I'm not defending the WBA, by the way. Their belts are irrelevant in boxing, I think, like all the others. However, the WBA as a whole are good for the sport. The only issue is who they put the belts on.

    He's a fat inadequate troll who has never thrown apunch in his life & has the wit & charm of a potato.

    Just a low-brow clueless, attention seeking **** with nothing worthwhile to say

    Dan just tells it like it is. Haye is unlicensed retired fugitive boxer with a broken toe.
