Dan Rafael's choices for end of year awards

[beenKOed]

Dan Rafael is a useless tub of goo, he deserves absolutely no respect imo. Many people who post on this site know more about the sport and are better writers. Having said that all of those picks were pretty straightforward, excepting for the round of the year. Why should it go to Martinez-Chavez Jr, just because Julio had him hurt after getting his ass whipped in all the rounds prior? It was certainly dramatic given that, but in the round itself there was barely any two way action. Off the top of my head I'd say at least a couple rounds in Rios-Alvarado were much better, or in fact the last round of Pac-Marquez as Manny was knocked out in the dying seconds after having it in the bag. The first round of that special FNF a while ago between Kim and Beltran was also great.

I always find myself on the wrong side of something, that's life I guess. I like Dan Rafael and I don't see anything wrong with his picks.
The last half of the 12th round of the Martinez v Chavez had me out of my seat, it was truely gripping. Pac-Marquez 4's last round did not affect me like that, all the excitiment of that round was in the last seconds of the round.
I like Rafael's pick for round of the year.

Trainer of the Year has to go to Rob McCracken.

It's easy to overlook him because Carl was already a world class fighter, but he turned into a scarry KO artist this year and you have to say that this must and can really only be attributed to the training.

Also coached GB Olympic team to 3 golds ;-)

Yupp, for which he gained an MBE, but I don't believe Dan's choices include amateur achievements.
