this guy was the espn guest analyst, why?

I know more about boxing that Rafael, and I am better looking and in better shape as well. I should have that job.

Dan Rafael owns over 20,000 fights and it seems to increase every month.

Dan Rafael bores me; I like the analysis of Al Berstein, Teddy Atlas, Larry Merchant, or even Brian Kenny.

I think I would obviously prefer a fighter (or maybe some trainers) in that role of coming on ESPN and talking on air to the audience as an "analyst"... the things that others in the business could offer insight to are things that Teddy and Joe are already privy to for the most part. IMO when it comes to having guys come on the air to call the action in that capacity it ios OBVIOUSLY more interesting when a fighter gets on there because he can surely tell you things that nobody else could in regard to what is going through the fighters mind etc etc etc. THAT to me is what the audience get to hear enough of

was Rafeel A Boxer Before? Why Not Hasve Real Boxers B Analysts? That Would Be Real Cool, Dont You Think???????????

they said it tonight and i read it online too.

on which show was Rafael guest anaylizing? ive watched the last two FNF and he wasnt there

i think a analyst is the guy thats like supposed to break down the action in the ring down and tell the fans on tv what the guys in the ring is doing and what they are supposed to be doing. I dont got impression that this guy is qualified to do that, thats all. fighters and trainers should be doing that job!

the guy does know a fair bit about boxing and is qualified to be on TV IMO. He does a weekly column for ESPN anyways on boxing and they mention that every week. I think he rates Jorge Arce a bit too highly but thats just me

he is like 400 pounds.
