First job: I had two jobs when I was 14. One was working for the Seminole Tribe in a concession stand twice a week selling hot dogs. I loved it! It was at the old Seminole Village and Rodeo Grounds, where the Hard Rock sits today. The other was in maintenance, cleaning up a racquetball and health club after school. It was called The Bodycenter and owned by Walt Lambert of Northeast Promotions. He was great to work for. Funny, my first two bosses and I all ended up in the boxing business.

Funny Boxing Memory: The first time I met my first fighter Mitch "Blood" Green. He asked me if I had at least $5,000 in the bank. When I said yes, he said OK, you my manager. He also nicknamed me Scotty "The Body." Mitch always cracks me up [smiles].

Most treasured possession: My family photos. I hate posing for pictures but love looking at pictures of my kids at Disney, first day of school, last day of school, everything they do.

Biggest Sports Thrill: Watching my son Josh win a gold medal at the World Racquetball Championships and watching him win a bronze at the Junior Olympics. I am so proud of him.
