    Whats he in court for now? The stealing when he came out?
    The guy is the definition of scum.

    I know this sounds horrible not knowing the bloke personally but I'm glad he's going back to prison. It means we won't ever have to see the truly awful sight of him vs Ricky Burns. Ricky would bum him harder than any of those Spanish gringos will when he goes back inside.

    I think every manager of note has had a go with Scott now.
    I'm going out on a limb here but I'm starting to think Scott might be a tad "difficult"

    Having shared gym with him for a few years I can confirm this is true. Difficult and dangerous character alright.

    You're not the first person that's shared a gym with him to tell me that Archie.

    Now I fully accept this is speculation but I heard he loved to play the little prince at the old gym in French Street.
    To the point where people stopped training there because of it.

    Nonsense,i can only comment on when i trained Scott up until when he pulled out against Nicky Cook,if other boxers trained as hard as Scott did in the gym they may have achieved so much more,in the gym Scott trained very very hard and ran twice a day, he was a very very tough talented man,horrible to see him in the papers so often but boxing wise i have many great memories working with him.

    I have to agree with Billy here, I have seen him at the gym on a good few occasions when Matty was sparring with him and he was polite and gave Matty some great advice after it. After sparring he just kept his head down and trained like a demon and left the gym. He has always trained that way even when he was younger and Lee was at the gym sparring with him.

    Whatever problems he has outside the gym he is a total gentleman inside it, he was very professional in his approach to his training there too.

    Maybe because he managed to get CAUGHT doing all these petty things.

    As I made clear Billy, I'm accepting that it's speculation but I can tell you for a fact that about six years ago at Morrison's gym, two guys on two separate occasions told me that they had stopped training along the road because of incidents regarding Scott.
    Your comment is fair outwith the first word.I accept and stated that it was hearsay,but for you to dismiss it as "nonsense" would suggest I am lying,which I am not and have no reason to do so.
    I commented in the wake of Ricky's last fight that Scott was an absolute beast of a trainer and never suggested otherwise.
    He may well be "tough" in boxing terms,but there are incidents I know for a fact took place that would suggest he's anything but tough when he takes liberties with people.
    Or is that also "nonsense"?
