    Nobody knows about the Peterson brothers lol. Shawn Porter is only known because he sparred with Pacman.

    You are truly an idiot.

    Any real boxing fan knows who the Peterson brothers. They also know who Shawn Porter is.

    Your problem is that you are not a boxing fan. You are in love with Khan and that is all. You have no knowledge of who is the sport or what it takes to be successful in the sport.

    Actually it is fans like you that hurt our sport. You are not a passionate wnough boxing fan to encourage other potential fans. You don't have the knowledge to help grow our fan base. Pretty sad actually.

      He's alleged to have dodgey dealings with his fighters otherwise Don King can promote a fight big time

                King is a great promoter when he has the right guys. I know thats not saying much being that any top promoter can handle the right guys well, but King is alot better at selling his bull**** to the public than most promoters. Arum looks like a bigger crook than King for doing sometimes less than King. King however can come across as more trustworthy despite being exactly what he appears to be and thats what makes him a better promoter than almost everyone.

                I think King could promote anyone and make it seem great even if it isn't and King has been known to put his guys in some tough fights no matter what the outcome.
