Becuase most of their fighters suck and it's cold and rainy there
that fat f*ck is so unprofessional its bordering on retarded.
lol of course theres not many champions from such a tiny country!idiot!,what other country the same size has had as many champs as scotland?
Not a country, but Puerto Rico.
I meant only boxer of note today. Buchanan won the lightweight belt and defended it once losing in his second defense to Duran. Do you consider that great? Meh.... I don't but more power to you. You should definitely be proud of Buchanan ascending to anworld title, no question. But to say he was a "great" world champion? Sorry brother, no disrespect but I'll disagree with you on that one.
Pehaps in world terms he might not be considered a great but a good fighter none the less,Good enough to be inducted into the hall of fame infact but whatever everyone is entitled to their opinion,However he will always be great in my eyes.
It wasn't just that but more youre flipant remark about "nobody of note" It's a sad day in boxing if being world champion and successfully defending youre title several times is nothing of note.

He was undisputed world champion and inducted into the hall of fame.
But to dismiss any world champion as nothing of note is disrespectfull imo.

and what has the weather there got to with anything?.the dickwad.
should get a petition going to get him to be a better journalist or warrent for him to to be fired!.
how can a fat idiot like him be able to even think about slaggin off hard working athletes behind their backs.what a coward.
So much bias in his work,no intelligence about his stance on anyone or anything,no balanced arguments what so ever.clear blind favourtism based only on word of mouth.
No intelligent answers or even any replies at all to back up some of the nonsense he types from his fat head.
I hope Booth and Haye jump that fool and make him **** his fat self.
I wonder who was ducking who when rafeal and haye were in the same room,im sure it wasnt haye as hes no idea who that amateur journalist even is!.
the guy was brave enough to take a back of head photo from distance,but if you do see him interview Haye you can bet your bank balance he wouldnt say "ducker" to his face.And Haye if he did know he would most likely jump him own him with his own arguments and see fat dan back down shut up and go cry on espn while eating a big cake.
What an ignorant thing to say,Scotland has had some great world champions.
Have you seen Buchanan vs Duran..

As for Rafeal, love or hate him he is the only boxing scribe I know that gives fans a chance to post their opinions and vent when needed. He gives fans an avenue to communicate to the movers and shakers in boxing. Damn near everyone who is anyone in boxing reads the weekly chat transcripts.
I thought Vancouver had one of the highest quality of living standards in North America?
Rafael is a keyboard warrior who is ducking Haye in Las Vegas as we speak.
Dan Rafael could say that about British Columbia and it would be true. All of our fighters suck and it's cold and rainy here.
Rafael is 100% honest in his comments about David Haye being a fraud and a ducker. Some UK fans (like boxingscene's "Mr Blobby") are absolutely ridiculous in how they nuthug and overrate Haye and that's what Rafael sometimes responds to.
Scotland's Ricky Burns is a quality fighter though.
I like Rafael because where other journalists often give us incorrect information, he gets his facts right.
Wat up Tua?
Feeling the Avatar.
What are your predictions for the fights tomorrow?
i like maidana. he's my type of fighter. touch , good power , etc.
that said i like khan a lot.
i think khan easily.
the kid has very good skills , good pop , size and speed.
i think khan is the best 140 fighter. he'd beat bradley , devon , etc.
