    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.
    Just shows what a crappy job he's been doing and thats the reason he's losing ground.

      At Heavyweight his biggest names are, Valuev, Peter, Ruiz, Golota, Toney, Mccline, and Briggs

      Cruiser he has Cunningham, Jones, Mormeck, and Braithwaite.

      He still has Trinidad

      Daniel Santos, Cory Spinks, Ricardo Mayorga

      Luis Collazo

      Devon Alexander

      Julio Diaz

      Barrera

      Joseph Agbeko

      Juan Palacios

      Those are the guys i guess who can most make him money
      Theres still a lot of fighters there that Don can still make money off
      Not quite the empire he once had though..
      His got the heavyweights on lockdown bar the two biggest names

            Since the heavyweight division has been reduced to ashes, so to has DKP. The company had depended far too long on the heavies and now it is paying the price.

            Even the young guys they do get in other divisions--like Alexander and others who have been mentioned--get ruined by DKP-induced inactivity. It's sad.

                disses Don king in an interview on F.ightnews

                Which brings me to the question: Is Don Kings Empire falling?

                What fighters does his currently control?
                Also He was **** hot for Boxing in the 70's 80's 90's but his older
                then the Marquess of Queensbury is it time he called it a day?
                since tito's first loss...



                don king is only a matter of a heart attack or some shoking news and hes gone...
