Terrible boxing journalists

[jehoshaphat]

Dan Rafael irritates me above all others and I go out of my way to avoid reading anything he writes. I try to avoid a fair chunk of so called boxing 'journalism' as it is seldom ever anything of the sort. It is almost like boxing is largely populated by Fox news style opinionists rather than anything cogent or informing. I read Fightnews to keep up to date, but that is as far as I go these days. You might as well watch the fights yourself rather than rely on the interpretations of others. It's the Wikileaks approach, just read documents and don't bother with the media filters that inevitably distort the world. Boxing has a lot of shitty faux 'journalists.

Perfectly said. Great points and advice.
