Like him or not, in his prime no one could put on an event like Don King. He just brought it all together when the time was right.

He is one of a kind, he like an Icon of boxing. When people see him they know who he is. I love the version of him in The Simpsons

What promoter doesn't have a great deal of controversy around him?

He ran an illegal bookmaking operation, and was charged for killing two men in separate incidents 13 years apart. The first was determined to be justifiable homicide after it was found that King shot a man in the back and killed him while he was attempting to rob one of King's ******** houses. King was convicted of second degree murder for the second killing after he was found guilty of beating to death an employee who owed him $600. In an ex parte meeting with King's attorney, the judge reduced King's conviction to nonnegligent manslaughter for which King served just under four years in prison.

he also robbed many other boxers as well.
