    Who's bothered? Don King has made a lot of big fights happen. He works well with Arum. In a big fight like this (May/Pac) anyone is welcome to help make the fight happen. Hell, he can even try Donald Trump if he can.

      What do you care?

      You want the fight made right?


      If Don King helps the fight get made then so be it. Him signing with King has no bearing to anyone on Boxingscene. It's his money to gain and/or waste.

        well, apparently it was a good decision for Trinidad. Hopefully, it would also be a good decision for Floyd jr. We'll see...

          Roy Jones worked with King for the Ruiz fight and it wasn't the worst thing in the world, Arum is way worse than King so why not?

              Agreed, King would work the media and put the fight and money ahead of each man and force this thing to happen. I think he could get Floyd the 0 days full random tests and the 60%.

                If he accomplishes that, then i'll consider him a more powerful dark sith lord than Darth Bob.

                But seriously. If he does accomplish this, then he should be the P4P greatest promoter in boxing history.

                  Honestly they weren't outrageous demands to begin with, a random test and a 60/40 split is about a 5 million purse guarantee difference out of 50 million.

                    Something must be brewing because Floyd posted another pic of him and son king at dinner.
