Boxing needs Don King to rule it again

Is he a snake? Of course he is! But guess what? EVERY promoter is a snake! At least he's a snake that gets things done! Remember when boxing and Don King were synonymous with each other? We would have already seen Pac vs May; Donaire vs Mares; Bradley vs Khan and countless others. I mean, the man made a middleweight tournament for god's sake. Us fans would win..the fighters, not so much though. But hey, we're always complaining on the forums of ducking, fights not being made, etc. Don King would use his iron snake fist and prevent that BS from happening. Just saying. No thanks Don King was a thief always stole from the boxers

Lennox is far too old now though lol.. The only version of Lewis I would have considered was the guy who fought Tommy Morrison.. That was when he was pretty cute. http://www.ameyawdebrah.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/lennox-lewis-08.jpg haha what a dish... (all homo)

Don King's time has passed now. but he use to run shyt when boxing still mattered.. Don was the very definition of black Jesus.. the issue was Black Jesus had two sides.. He had the gentle side when he showers you with his love, but he also had the ruthless side. Lennox Lewis learned about just how evil Don could be. Lennox Lewis split from Don King and unlike Tyson , Lewis is still rich and happy. The side effects of this split is obviously 1-Draw against Holyfield 2-KTFO against Rahman 3- Knocked out (Controversial) against Mccall. Don King was to blame for both of Lewis's losses... If he had play the good house boy like Tyson did. he would have been undefeated, and Bowe.Tyson would have been fed to Lennox in the 90's..... But Lennox stood for principle, justice, honor, and humanity. Lennox rather be knocked out than continue in that cess pool of corruption which surrounded Don King. Lewis sacrificed his very health for honor and righteousness and should damn well be applauded for it. I salute you Lennox. We will never see a champion like you again. lennox admitted years ago that mccall caught him with a good right & he admitted to taking rahman lightly & showed up 10 days before his fight in south africa(huge altitude change)after filming ocean's 11 or 12 & partied & mingled with celebrities while rahman was there for 3 months training. don king had nothing to do with his losses. i think he stayed clear of king as his promoter but he was holyfield's promoter for the first lewis fight & lennox refused to get bullied into a don king contract. right before the holyfield\lennox fight king tried to get lennox to sign with him but he refused then the draw happened. after the rahman fight lennox went to court to immediately invoke his rematch clause before don king could get his hands in there before he got his rematch. if king won the court battle lennox wouldn't have got the rematch. king promoted several fighters lennox fought but he generally stayed clear of him. he promoted only a couple of his fights.

Yeah Don King would be great for the sport of boxing if he could have a revival. I guarantee you there would be a much easier time getting marquee fights made cause Don King is about his paper. Plus he'd bring another personality and always brings attention to the sport, you can make a case that he's probably the most famous non-fighter personality in boxing history. We need that brother with the wild hair and weird English back in the game

he put on the best PPV for years...he ruled the 80s & 90s...there was always quality fights on his cards. no one will ever put cards like his together again. now it's one good fight maybe 2 with some duds. on a don king undercard the opening bought would be a HW title eliminator not a up & comer fighting a can...

One thing that boxing misses about Don King is his creativity and ambition to try things which hadnt been done before. Putting on events all around the world, taking Tyson to Tokyo, Ali/Foreman to Zaire etc. Making his fights global news instead of just American news. His fights had fun names, concerts and all kinds of entertainment. Now we get fights in Vegas over and over, with names like 'dream match' and 'ring kings'. It just doesnt inspire the imagination. He was a snake though.

Lol no.. You should be banned just for that stupid idea So you're telling me that the Golden Boy/Top Rank feud is better for boxing???

I wasn't watching boxing then so I'm not sure, but Bob Arum has to go, that's for sure. the $h!t King pulled back in the day makes Arum look like a choirboy

In regards to the MW tournament, he only made it when he thought his boy Trinidad would win it. Hopkins was trying to fight don king belt holders for years. Good point, although I think that Bhop wanting to run his own ship as manager, promoter & fighter had a lot to do with him not getting those shots.

with the screw job King gave many, many fighters during his hay day, my gut reaction is HELL NO! But man I sure miss those PPVs with 3-5 quality fights on them.
