Fat mess Dan Rafael shows little objectivity when writing about Klitschko/Haye...

Rafael is obviously biased. Yes, I side with Wlad, but as a journalist you should never step over the line, and Dan did - again.

But one thing you cannot argue with (something Wlad said actually not Rafael): how can Haye guarantee he'll actually show up this time? We went through all angles and everything, but at the end of the day you must realize he can't guarantee it and the Klitschkos just want to fight - they love to fight! Several reigning world champions, former world champions, unbeaten fighters and Olympic medallists, they take on anyone and everyone. Wlad did what you would've done in his place: getting the easy payday before the July fight that might or might not happen - and Haye announced he wants none of these plans. Both sides have a reason to side with, but at the end of the day, knowing their past, ask yourself: who would You trust more?

 

You can be critical without resorting to childish nonsense which Rafael has done. I get the sense that he actually has personal disdain for Haye which isn't something a journalist should do because it can interfere with objectivity.

 

Lol gotta love Rafael, mother ****er knows his **** and his sources are usually if not always reliable.

 

Why get mad at someone for just telling the truth???

 

Rafael is just a joke.

 

Fat ****.

 

Haye's a joke but Rafael's an even bigger joke. A professional fatboy that's never even had a schoolyard fight. The guy knows nothing and shouldn't be respected by anyone that has a clue about boxing. He's been a fan of boxing for less time than the majority of losers on here have been. He didn't pursue journalism for boxing at all. At least he used to have his journalistic skills up to par but now he's resorting to childish name calling the likes of which trolls on here use. Pathetic excuse for arguably the most widely read and known boxing pundit in America what a joke that he's climbed to this undeserving rank. This fool should never be paid for his dribble

 

:good exactly.

3 ****in times! :twisted:

 

I always liked brittish fighters,but Haye is a disgrace for UK boxing, I can't belive that people in UK can support a ***** and a liar like Haye. Lennox,Nigel Benn, Ricky Hatton, Bruno,Hamed, Eubank this are real brittish fighters, not Haye!

 

I still dont believe it wont happen, as much as Haye goes on about not fighting a Klitchko before he quits... which I think he wants to do early as he wants to get into the movie business).. :/

People here wont forgive him either for not fighting one, especially after all the smack talk. It'll be tragic if he doesn't get at least one fight in against one of the brothers, even if he says that he is content with what he's achieved... the UK public wont be imho.

It's a shame he cant have words with his mate Khan (GBP) and get them to move their fight a month later or something to allow this fight to happen!

 

Haye is a pathetic excuse for a HW champion, but journalists should be neutral. If I want to read biased, immature rants I can tune in to ESB any day of the week. Wlad has to be laughing his ass off though. I wouldn't be surprised if he's delaying the Haye fight just to make Haye recant on his promise to retire in October. Wlad knows Haye is completely full of sh*t and will never retire with millions of pounds to be paid just by taking a canvas nap.

 

Raphael calls em like he sees em. And he's a US journalist working for a US sports organization, so it's not like he has a pony in this. He's never been a big Wlad supporter either. Above all, Raphael has the wherewithal to realize that, Haye's hype machine notwithstanding, Adamek is the more deserving opponent for a title.

 

There are Reporters and there are Columnists. Columnists have opinions. Rafael is a Columnist. Who said he's supposed to be objective? He's calling it like he sees it. . . .like the evidence suggests is reality.

 

Bloomer - good point. I didn't realize Raphael is a columnist. Big difference. He's still a fat greasy f*ck though.
