    He's good at reporting fact.
    Not so much good at formulating opinion.

    Very Biased know it all fellow, goes overboard with his character assasination of boxers he doesn't like. Would love to see him go.

    seems to have pretty good legit source and not rumors as we hear so often, loves boxing and opinionated.

    You might disagree with him but then again, is there better journalist covering boxing right now?

    One time I ran into him, and I was shocked that he was giving me false information. Don't remember exactly what it was, but I wouldn't dare correct him. I think it was about Lamon Brewster or something... but I just assumed that he hadn't eaten enough donuts that afternoon..

    I agree with this except the last part. The Froch-Dirrell and Williams-Martinez fights he said were close, but weren't a robbery. During his chats he would get all pissed at somebody saying it was a robbery.

    Rafael is good for breaking news, because promoter's tell him what going to happen. As a boxing analysts, Rafeal is average.

    I enjoy reading his articles as a source for breaking news. He's one of the best in that regard.

    I like Dan and I think he is good for the sport...He does have some bias as do all writers but I think he gears them up more when he is talking about a fighter he doesn't like..
