8CN Thanks for joining us champ.
FV Thanks for having me.
8CN I heard that you have this big fight card coming up that you will be promoting. Tell us about it.
FV Definitely the card will be on November 6th at the Palms casino in Las Vegas. Zab Judah will be the main event, and I have Ron Johnson as the co -main event. We are still working on the opponents because a few of them fell out. It's going to be a great night of boxing so I encourage the fans to get your tickets and come out and enjoy the fights.
8CN Where can the fans get tickets to the fight?
FV - They can go to ticket master or at the Palms hotel. Just call and ask them for the box office.
8CN There was some speculation that you might be considering coming back to the fight game. Is that just a rumor or is that true?
FV Anything is a possibility. Right now I am just staying focused on my promotion. We'll see because nothing is for sure. There is definitely some interest in that, so we'll see.
8CN What are your thoughts on the Manny Pacquiao vs Miguel Cotto fight?
FV Right now Manny is the guy to beat right now. I just don't see Cotto messing with Manny's speed and intelligence. Cotto is a one dimensional fighter and we seen him quit against Margarito. Margarito beat him because he wouldn't let Cotto breath. Manny is smaller than he is, but he won't have problems at 145lbs. I definitely see Pacquiao winning. I am not sure if it will be a knockout, but it should be a decisive win. Cotto already quit once, so he's liable to quit again. When you say No Mas once, I have seen it many times before where they will quit again. Cotto is a fighter that has quit, so he may do it again. People remember that, the same thing for Roberto Duran, that's how people remember him, the No Mas fight, and that's horrible.
8CN If Manny beats Cotto, and he goes on to fight Floyd Mayweather Jr who do you think will win that fight?
FV I would have to know at what weight that they would be fighting at. Mayweather is a very challenging and gifted fighter. I think Manny Pacquiao is a machine though, he throws punches from many angles. A fight with Mayweather would be very challenging. I would have to see the first round, then I would be able to know more how it would turn out.
8CN Thanks for joining us champ.
FV Thank you, take care.
