    Do some research before you make accusations. The information was sent out in a press release from a member of Cameron's team or his promoter. At least our writer shaked it up a bit, while the NZ writer appears to have posted the press release word for word under his own byline, which is not a crime but doesn't show much work ethic either.
    Then the press release should have been cited by the writer in question in both cases, and just because Dan Rafael rewrites them all the time and passes them off as original doesn't make it right or ethical.

      This site also often just prints press releases as articles without identifying them as such, which is also confusing to the reader, who often mistakes them for objective stories from a journalist. I've seen that happen often here.

      It's a good boxing site, but some of this stuff is very very sloppy and it can become misleading.

        Usually you could tell by either the category or the author
