Hey Scully! You ever come up to Ontario to watch some of our Amateurs? They should kick out Dan Rafael and put you as the Boxing analyst on ESPN.

Hey, my man, funny u should ask, I am actually talking to Syd Vanderpool about maybe bringing a team of mine up to match up with his team...how far are you from Toronto or Kitchener???

[ICEMAN JOHN SCULLY]

Bump....come on, all u boxing fans and NO ONE IS ATTENDING the induction of MIKE TYSON????

Yes, very exciting.

This will be my third IBHOF Induction weekend, and my fourth visit overall.

I hold tickets for the memorabilia show, the VIP ****tail reception, the Banquet of Champions dinner, and of course the Induction Ceremony itself.

Cannot wait.

I am good friends with a former boxer who has been and loved it. He gets invited up there a lot cause he says a lot of the old time fighters like him cause the way he always conducted himself as a gentlemen. I plan on going on day that would be a good trip to make happen.

Damn fitefanSHO about how much a package like that run? I don't need exact numbers but a roundabout figure would be cool.

[fitefanSHO]

Not including travel (3 hr drive and hotel 2 nights nearby) and accommodations, $225 per person. It's very reasonably priced IMO but I think that stuff is long sold out, I bought over the winter. Glad I did, the IBHOF is a great time. I went the years Ray Leonard was inducted and George Foreman, 97 and 2003 I think it was.

I have heard NOTHING BUT great things about the weekend...I know a guy who told me one year he was walking on the street and ended up walking to McDonald's with Paul Spadafora...and he ran next to Hopkins in the roadrace...etc...I really look forward to going there for the first time in a few weeks...

You will have a blast.

There is really no line between the fighters and the fans for the most part. At least that is how I remember it being in the past. It's orderly but very interactive. Great opportunity to get some good autographs, or chat with your favorite fighters. Go to Grazianos across the street on Saturday night and you will see everybody there.

Iran Barley was checking out my wife one night, no kidding.
