Why does Mayweather need Don King?

[NesNY]

If Mike Tyson, a self-admitted scumbag, ****** kid from Brooklyn vehemently calls Don King the biggest scumbag on the planet, there's gotta be at least a hint of credibility to that claim.

"Don King would sell his own mother for a dollar".

good luck, Floyd. Don't end up where Mike ended up.

Thing with DK and business is that you better cover all corners or he will **** your ass and get a judge to give him your wife and **** her too

why does any fighter need a promoter????

you missed the point. floyd has gbp on his side already. why would he need don king unless the rumor he's not in good terms w/ them and haymon are true.

Don is going to everything to get Floyd. He will make sure Floyd sr. Medical is right and he will help Roger in his court case. Don paper is long and he still powerful as f-ck.

Altho I don't agree that he sign with king I want to see the PAC Floyd fight.

i think you missed my point...why wouldnt floyd need king..and floyd doesnt fear manny..be real..lol

repetition is the mother of all learning....and Floyd Sr. has repeatedly said he doesn't want his son fighting southpaws for years.

Three fights ain't happening, that we can be pretty sure of.

Pac
Martinez
Williams

I think its mainly because Floyds a big name and virtually any fight hes in now is big... and King can promote the **** out of anything, hes a dodgey ****er and all that, but a damn good promoter. Its basically making the big even bigger.

Floyd should see sense though, King has a reputation of milking people dry and Floyd must already know this.

[Spacey1991]

Its wierd because even Floyds biggest haters would admit that Floyd is REALLY clever when promoting fights and how to generate money, but it seems like its got to a point were he thinks he smart enough to do business with King with no problems... but the harsh reality is that King is A LOT smarter than Floyd when it comes to this kind of stuff, hes practically a con artist.

Most people sign with King nowadays only when they really have to, and then jump ship at the first opportunity.
