Dontae accuses Dan Rafael of being racist because he blocked Rigo on twitter

[A.K]

Idk if he's racist but one thing is for certain if you block anyone and they didn't spam you or it's a ex of some sort you're a strait biiiatch no way around it, means your feelings were touched and you don't want none no more.

I always keep hearing of Dontae. Never had the interest to click on a link or watch a video. Dan has some good articles. Other than that not interested in them or their twitter drama.

Dontae is a black racist piece of shlt who keeps calling white fighters and other white people racist to get his clicks.

[DuckAdonis]

Lol why does he have him blocked?? Unprofessional Bitcch

[sugarsmosley]

Blocking Guillermo Rigondeaux on twitter is a blatant act of racism and Dan Rafael should be dismissed immediately of his position at ESPN. I can't believe that such a bigoted act of hatred is going unnoticed and thank you to Dontae's Boxing Nation for exposing and bringing to light this hate crime. Thank you DBN.

[Elroy The Great]

of course its racist....dans white and rigo is black.

nuff said

oh, wait....he isnt blocking every black athlete.

[ShoulderRoll]

In no other sport would this be acceptable.

Can you imagine Tim Duncan back in his day getting blocked by an ESPN personality just because he was "boring?"

[CubanGuyNYC]

Dan blocked him but talks so much ish about him. That's weak.

Shit is ******ed. I've read Dan's articles for years. He's a Rigo-hater. No two ways about it. Rafael loves come-forward, rock-em-sock-em fighters. Nothing wrong with that, but when a fighter fights in a different style -- especially one so talented as Rigo -- a supposedly professional boxing journalist should be able to write objectively about it.

Why would any leading broadcasters personality block a boxer who he or she reports on?

[OnePunch]

Dontae always trying to start race shit. But it's undeniable that the boxing media is the most biased and unprofessional in any sport. They aren't neutral or try to be like the media that cover other sports.

Rafael is not a reporter. He is an analyst.

There is a MAJOR difference between those 2 professions.

Dan Rafael is not a reporter? Of course he is you ****ing idiot.

Lets see what ESPN themselves gave for Rafael's job title in a press release.

"ESPN senior writer Dan Rafael has signed a new, multi-year agreement to remain at ESPN as the company’s lead boxing multimedia reporter and columnist."

Lets also look up the definition of reporter.

"a person who reports, especially one employed to report news or conduct interviews for the press or broadcasting media."

Doesn't Rafael do that?


Not a reporter though.
