    What is it with Steve Kim?

    He constantly berates fighters. He said Deontay Wilder proved nothing after he beat Stiverne, he always bad mouths Andre Ward. He said with the Zou Shiming decision today that the judges will "get the decision right" in the future, that they'll, in time, "learn to give the hometown verdict."

    He then retweeted an image which mocked Shiming and Freddie Roach in the Shiming corner during the fight using a meme. He seems to be a very spiteful person. You'd expect him to be at least a bit neutral since he writes about a host of different fighters.

    Going back to what I said about his negative opinion towards fighters, he then re-tweets tweets from other twitter users who share the same opinion as him. There was even a thread on here recently about him going all out on twitter.

      I like his youtube channel "Undisputed Champions Network" and he seems alright on there. He seems to be a big GGG fan but often downs other fighters. I haven't seen his twitter account but I hear he posts a lot of nonsense.

        None of these writers are neutral, hell nobody in boxing is neutral.

        Kim's okay, I can take him or leave him, not sure why people get so upset over a damn writer.

          He's a massive ****** sitting behind his computer, mocking fighters non-stop. I'd love to see him in the ring with someone.

            He does, but then, twitter is about 99% nonsense.

            But he, like Dan Rafael, do have some news on there if you wade through the crap about whatever shows they're watching (Kim) or whatever is new with pro wrestling (Rafael).

              He goes hard on some fighters that he doesn't like, harder than some other writers. I've seen fischer been going hard lately, but I just started following him.

              Also people get mad when he criticizes their fighter...but that goes for everyone when their fighter is criticized

                I think Fischer is right near the top of the profession (Ring mag?), that just tells you none of these guys are without a strong bias.

                Iole says a lot of stuff I don't agree with, but I say just ignore them, they're just writers, they're kind of supposed to generate debate and controversy from time to time.

                    Kim, Fischer, and Montoya (the guy that started the Mayweather PED rumors) are all buddies and all started at MaxBoxing. You'll notice that they all hate on certain fighters and all ****ride certain other fighters.
