Fat Dan hates and insults boxers because he is ........

[holmcall]

It seems more like you started the thread cause your a little butt hurt that he didn't know who you wrote for. I dont mind Dan at all.

Horseshit. I've disliked this fat slab of slop since he first came on ESPN. He is a plajurizing hulk of lard who wrote for his HS newspaper and did some serious jock sniffing in the locker room because he was too uncoordinated to play sports. And my dislike is on record long before I met this pig in person at Foxwoods. This guy hates boxers.

“What is about to go down Saturday night in Monterrey, Mexico, is everything that is wrong with boxing. Vivian Harris is going to fight. He is taking on Jorge Paez Jr. in a fight that should not be taking place…. Harris is a shot fighter. A badly shot fighter, who has not been a remote factor for about seven years.” –Dan Rafael March 17, 2014


Harris, of course, went on to beat Paez, Jr. on March 22 deep in the heart of Mexico.

just cause he works for ESPN doesn't mean he always has to be right. Harris, if were talking about the same one is shot. He got stopped by Ortiz not so long ago?

Yeh I'd give Fat Dan a well intentioned pass on that one. Harris was on a terrible run of shaky legs and being dropped and hurt by glancing punches. Watching him leaving on a stretcher and slurring was enough to hope he won the lottery and immediately retire. That was ugly stuff.

Just because Harris won the fight doesn't mean he should still be fighting. Carried out on a stretcher. Slurring words. Having won only 1 fight in 6 years, with 6 of those 7 losses by KO. These are valid reasons that Harris should be done as a fighter.

From what I gather he was a third choice late replacement for Erik Morales?! Just the thought of a worn down and punch prone guy being shipped down to Meheeco as a late sub should give anyone pause. He beat Paez, he should retire on a high. But he won't.

Good points and they are taken on Harris, but the way Dan went after him was cruel. And remember, the stretcher bit involved a head-butt--though probably even more damaging than a punch.


Check this cruel one out:


“Harris [is] a fighter that should be put down. If he were a horse, he’d either be taken to stud or the glue factory.”—Steve Kim of MaxBoxing


Rumor has it that Kim lives with his mother. If that's true, then that's all you need to know about this "macho man."




Two more quotes:


“#ESPN #boxing writer Dan Rafael says Vivian Harris should no longer be fighting. Based on Rafael’s own wisdom, Rafael shouldn’t be eating!” –Rick Glaser




“I cannot be the only one who finds something distasteful about suggesting a fighter is fit only for breeding or the glue factory, or describing him as “damaged goods”, especially when the writer professes a sanctimonious concern for the same fighter’s welfare. Nor can I be alone in detecting a whiff of condescension…” -Matthew J. Bailey http://therumpuscompass.com/tag/vivian-harris/

But Dan Rafael didn't say any of those things!!! Steve Kim did. Rick Glaser did. Matthew J. Bailey(who I suspect is you) did.

Are you really that dim that you continue your argument against Dan Rafael by providing cruel quotes from other people?!?!

Rocco, you are in and out of this thread like a short dick. Please just f--k off.

This was canned outrage” and “blind grandstanding” Sam Geraci of Fightnews said he could not understand “how any person with ethics can write something that harms the earning potential of a fighter without having verified information on why a fighter may have been denied a license in one region and granted one in another."

You started 3 threads against 2 analyst and 1 boxing writer and your a writer yourself. Max kellerman is understandable as he isn't as good as and interviewer as he was a couple years ago. Teddy does sometimes get annoying with all the metaphors but that's just nitpicking. With Dan Rafael just by naming the thread "Fat Dan..." just shows how your hating on them. They made it to a good spot in boxing making decent money and meeting the fighters and my guess is your just filled with so much jealousy that you hate them for being where you want to be.

Probably true but you continue to read my posts, don't you? BTW, you need to change your moniker. Maravilla is shot as stale shite.

And oh yes, if you want to let Fan Dan sit on your face, be my guest.

Now your just being a hypocrite saying Dan talks shit about fighters and there you go calling Martinez " shot as stale shite" when he isn't close at all to being as shot as the fighter you ran to defend who got a fluke victory in Vivian Harris.

I highly doubt this guy is a writer. It seems to be rather obvious trolling.

@holmcall, you are getting more popular by the day.
