From Wikipedia: Controversies Don King has been a lightning rod for controversy throughout his career. He has been the subject of several lawsuits by boxers he managed who alleged that they were forced to hire King's relatives and cronies. He has faced charges of tax evasion by the IRS. Rumors of jury-tampering have swirled around him. And it also became known that the rights to pay-per-view fights he promoted were awarded to organized crime figures, some of whom may have known King from his book-making days. King has been investigated for possible connections with organized crime. During a 1992 Senate investigation King pleaded the Fifth Amendment when questioned about his connection to mobster John Gotti. In public, however, he has responded to mob allegations by calling them racist. Mike Tyson, the former Unified World Heavyweight Boxing Champion says of his former manager, King: "(King is) a wretched, slimy, reptilian mother--. This is supposed to be my 'black brother' right? He's just a bad man, a really bad man. He would kill his mother for a dollar. He's ruthless, he's deplorable, he doesn't know how to love anybody." Lawsuits and fraud prosecutions filed against King King has been involved in several litigation cases with boxers that were focused on fraud. They include a 1980 trial in which Muhammad Ali sued King for underpaying him $1.2 million for a fight with Larry Holmes. Ali settled for $50,000. Tim Witherspoon sued King and won $900,000. Mike Tyson sued King for $100 million, alleging the boxing promoter cheated him out of millions over more than a decade. It was settled out of court for $14 million. In May 2005, King was sued by Lennox Lewis, who wanted $385 million from the promoter, claiming King used threats to pull Tyson away from a rematch with Lewis. Terry Norris settled a lawsuit out of court against Don King for breach of contract for $7.5 million. In early 2006, Chris Byrd sued Don King for breach of contract and the two eventually settled out of court under the condition that Byrd would be released from his contract with King. On September 3, 2009, boxer Ricardo Mayorga filed a suit against King, alleging that the promoter has failed to arrange boxing matches for him. The federal suit, filed in Miami, also alleges violations of the Muhammad Ali Boxing Reform Act: Mayorga says King set up a conflict of interest when he appointed his son, Carl King, as Mayorga's manager. Lloyd's of London Insurance company Lloyd's of London sued King for $350,000, claiming insurance fraud in a Julio César Chávez fight that was canceled. King was charged with insurance fraud by the U.S. Justice Department. The judge declared a mistrial after a hung jury in 1995, and he was acquitted on a retrial in 1998.

Yea, and Tyson punched him in the face when he found out he was keeping his money :boxing: good on him...im proud he did that..if i were tyson i would have done the same to that money robbing bitch..

I have always heard for years that he "steals" money from boxers or something of that affect.. But I was curious if any of you ni99a's had actual details or examples of some of the dirty dealings King has done to earn this rep. What specifically has he done? Has tyson,Ali,Chavez,Trinidad,Mayorga,Cambell or any of the MANY others boxers he's promoted ever open up with spec's??? The only person to actually beat him in court was Terry Norris. I think its more something along the lines of him being willing to draw up deals that fu(k over his fighters, not getting his fighters many fights, and just genuinely being conniving...not that he's the only boxing promoter to be that way.

Ali,Tyson,Lennox Lewis,Tim Witherspoon,Terry Norris,Chris Byrd,Ricardo Mayorga have all sued him....he was also sent to jail For man slaughter and homicide...pretty much Shows his true colours that piece of sh*t.... (Spits On Floor) Yea, and Tyson punched him in the face when he found out he was keeping his money :boxing:
