Is Don Kings Empire Falling?

[brently1979]

I think he is falling bit time. Since Golden Boy is run by fighters, other fighters feel comfortable signing with them.
DON KING & Arum were the only really big shows in town for so long. Arum is doing better than King.

The day it completely falls down a ****load of fighters he screwed will be that much happier.

And Golden Boy Promotions is the damn best with guys like Oscar, Bernard, Shane etc. It just makes it awesome.

YOU are the FOOL. This is actually a very valid and interesting thread.

Thank you brently....

What would be better for boxing though? One big company or several others? Cause if one goes down, the sport will be in serious **** I reckon...

Yeah, I think Golden Boy is the future, but I would be nice to have another good promotor out there just to keep them honest.

I forgot to mention Lou Dibella he has some good fighters like Berto etc.

[flipside]

he's definitely not the same as before i think we can agree on that. he has the heavyweights but heavyweights dont sell no more.

[The Hammer]

Don King has been ruining fighters by keeping them inactive for too long. He signed young Mario Preskar, and then didn't have him fight for a year.

He's kept Steve Cunningham, Guillermo Jones, Wayne Braithwaite, Ray Austin, Larry Donald, Sergey Lyakhovich inactive for a year (or a year and a half) against their will.

Lyakhovich is now thankfully free of him.
