Gerald McClellan thread

[Thread Stealer]

The day Don King croaks, many people in boxing will rejoice and feel a sense of justice.

King did donate some money for G-Man's benefit dinner, $25k, which is still probably less than what he underpaid him when he fought.

Don King was probably bitter at McClellan and didn't pay him because he was a 'failed investment'.

Such a sad story, I'm disgusted about how no boxers have ever came to visit him. What do you think?

You wouldnt want to step into a ring if you saw what has become of the G-Man. Nigel Benn said it himself, he said something along the lines of he feels very saddened by what happened to him and would like to go visit him after he has retired. The reporter asked why he had to wait till he retired and Benn said that he wouldnt be able to fight anymore knowing what he could do to someone or what they could do to him. Its like motor racing, you dont visit someone who has had a big crash for fear of it happening to you. (Bit random I know, but I watched Days Of Thunder last night )
