Listen to what Iceman John Scully had to say.
Iceman John Scully spoke about a wide variety of topic “On the Ropes”. Highlighting the conversation was his thoughts on Manny Pacquiao and the prospects of a showdown between Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather Junior. Here are some excerpts from the show:
On Manny Pacquiao’s victory over Miguel Cotto:
“The old adage has always been a good big always man beats a good little man, but he’s (Pacquiao) destroyed that time and time again now, four fights in a row.”
On the prospects of a mega fight between Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather:
“The only fight in boxing that matters now, there’s only one fight, and that’s Mayweather and Pacquiao”
On Pacquiao’s trainer Freddie Roach:
“For the last few fights, Freddie has not only trained him and orchestrated a brilliant fight plan, but he’s laid it out. He told people ahead of time how it was going to go and what they were going to do, and he called it perfectly, so you have to give Freddie Roach a lot of credit.”
On Floyd Mayweather Junior:
“ A lot of people I find they don’t like Mayweather personally so they don’t like him as a fighter, but that’s very ignorant to do that. It’s like with Ali. Chances are, the people that think he wasn’t a good fighter also think he’s a draft dodger. They confuse the two hates.”
On his working relationship with Matt Godfrey:
“So far I think we’ve really worked well together. We have a good relationship and he understands boxing.”
On Tomasz Adamek moving up to heavyweight:
“Could that guy take the best punch of Vitali or Wladimir Klitschko? If I was to guess, I would say no.”
On his experiences sparring with Roy Jones Junior:
“One of my proudest things in boxing is actually the fact that I was called back repeatedly to spar with him in training camps.”
On the short term future of boxing:
“Boxing hinges probably on one fight, and that’s Pacquiao and Mayweather.”
