But but but there were extenuating circumstances... King extenuated his foot til he heard the "ting" of the man's brains hitting the curb..... You know extenuating?

His fighters usually ended up on the right side of bad decisions. Not sure if that is good or bad promoting?

Good if ur aligned with King, bad if ur not....

I truly miss that. Can you imagine PPV's featuring 4 of the top 10 p4p fighters in the world? In good matchups, for the most part? I miss the days of seeing Chavez, Norris and Nelson on one card. As a promoter, Don King is criminally underrated.

I don't agree. Most people rightly contend that kings immoral behavior overshadowed his promotions. Even if ming was a John gatti, if he had managed to put his shows on and pay his fighters I would agree. Many promoters take from the fans these days.... King took from the fighters.

That was deep. Pretty much sums this whole thread up.
