Dan Rafael: "Thank you for not letting Roger Mayweather speak during the prescon"

Thank god that they don't let roger speaks during prescon.

**** you, Dan! Die, you fat cunt.

Hahahahaha that sig is fuking hilarious!!

Of course Roger has all the right to speak because he trains one of the fighter who is involve in the fight, I just saw him speak now and he didnt say anything stupid or swear on stage so i dont get why idiotic journos like that Fat bastard would say something like this.

From Dan Rafael's blog: http://a.espncdn.com/i/columnists/rafael_dan_m.jpg "Whoever made the decision not to allow Roger Mayweather to talk during the formal program: Thank you. He adds nothing constructive whatsoever, unless you consider a stream of profanities and insults to other trainers who are not even there constructive." http://espn.go.com/sports/boxing/blog/_/name/rafael_dan/id/4965030/mosley-mayweather-bring-fans-force it doesnt matter who agrees with what roger mayweather says, he should still be allowed to say it. it doesnt matter who speaks or what they say, there is always going to be people who agree and disagree. im sure there are people who dont agree with some things dan raphael says but does that mean he shouldnt be allowed to speak in public? i would think him being a reporter he might try to stay somewhat neutral instead many of his articles seem to be just his opinions.

Did he talk about how he got boo in his hometown??? Fat Bast**d!!! http://www.boxingscene.com/forums/showthread.php?t=362450

wow, i really honestly dont like roger but this is just plain bad journalism, shame on him, who does he think he is? he has no right to talk about roger like that, roger is an accomplished world champion and respected trainer, rafael is a big fat baby who watches boxing.

fukk dan. he gets all his info from this site. if it wasnt for boxingscene he would hav a job

I've come to the conclusion if I ever meet Dan Rafael in person I will be restrained for cursing his bitch ass out.

I agree, I've still to hear a coherent sentece, something that makes sense without any derrogatory remarks from Roger's mouth.

LOL I love how all the Floyd fans and stans made sure to be first posts.

I wonder what he thinks about Roach then?

I was actully mad when Roger didn't talk the guy is pure comedy and only speaks the truth I don't know what all the hate is for

I agree with Dan. Roger is a piece of crap.

The Lincoln Theatre was packed to capacity (about 1,000 people) with fans and media for what I'll refer to as more of a pep rally than a news conference. Even after the doors were closed, there must have been at least another 500-plus people standing around outside wanting to get inside. Washington is definitely a good fight town. What I thought was great was that both Mayweather and Mosley did their best to sign every autograph, pose for every photo and chat with the fans after the formal program. In what other sport can a regular Joe get so close to the stars? Good to hear. this is where Dan Goossen failed Paul Williams IMO I always thought cities like DC Cincy and Atlanta were possible hotbeds of boxing fans looking for someone to get behind judging by the large crowds at this, the great attendance shows in Cincy get I was right

ROGER is idiot on another level. I don't think you're in a position to be calling anyone an idiot.

I appreciate Raphael for consistently writing about boxing for a mainstream network. I really do. But I resent him getting into personal beefs with the athletes and trainers. Its not his job. He is just a journalist. He doesnt need to try to become a personality. Whats worse is you already know he did this because his feelings were hurt for being booed by Floyd fans, in his hometown. Thats bitch-like, if you ask me. Fact of the matter is that Roger is a fan favorite, one of the main reasons why 24/7s are so entertaining. He pisses more boxing knowledge in a day then Raphael will ever have. Roger is part of the show... so I say let him speak.

i agree with dan. Regardless of whether anyone agrees, Dan is still a fat fukk
