Much love, respect & appreciation to John Scully. Solid fighter back in the day & a great dude with a extraordinary passion & heart to help cats. Glad to see him getting more attention & ideally with that attention comes more money to help ex-boxers struggling.

Great story...he's a compassionate soul. I always like reading John Scully's posts on here. I didn't realize he was training Artur Beterbiev.

Agree. I remember when he used to be on the AOL boards back in the day (early 2000's).

Guy has more knowledge of boxing than most on this earth.

Class guy, humble, and here he is definitely doing the right thing helping out.

Kind of surprised he posts here sometimes as some people are just filled with venom or trolls with personal agendas. Not too mention the other assorted weirdos.

Jade, just to clarify, I HELP in training camp, work on stuff, but I am NOT Artur's head trainer, that would be Marc Ramsay (also trains Lemieiux and Alvarez).

Thanks for your words.

AOL message boards and chat rooms were the LB 4 LB of the internet back then, werent they???!!!??? I see the venom, its CRAZY sometimes...but after a while I realized the mentality and hate these people have inside of them...they dont count and they know it. I assume most of them go through a phase and after a while it dawns on them how crazy it is, what they do, and they drift away from it.

It's always good to see someone making an effort to help fighters. There are too many of them who are down on their luck.
