Cliff rold and myself had alittle bit of a back and forth about Dan rapheal, ESPN's main boxing guy.. I think Dan is an idiot and is only taken seriously because he is with espn.. Cliff has met him personally, and vouched for the guy..
But then I read Dian's recent fight freak chat, and just had to shake my head..
Dan said curry isn't worthy of hall of fame, but a few moments later proceeded to say serg Martinez is a first ballot no-brainer..
I ask, how is serg much greater than curry???
Serg best wins are pavlik, paul Williams, and chavez jr
Curry has wins over mccory, starling twice
Both guys were two division champs, and both were the "main" "real" champ, curry at welter, serg at middleweight..
I just don't see how curry can be dismissed so easily, yet serg is a first ballot guy..
I think this is just another example of how Dan raphael is in way over his head when it comes to covering boxing, let alone voting for the hall of fame.
