    Why is everyone scared of Don King

    I mean lewis was standing right next to the guy who screwed him and he didn't even say nothing to him in the press conference in the locker room all the guys were saying it's a don king robbery in the press conference king said 'why didn't you finish it' lewis didn't say **** back.

    Mike Tyson had multiple disputed and didn't do nothing but sue him years later.

      Excerpt out of "Controversies" part of Wiki page:

      Don King has been investigated for possible connections with organized crime. During a 1992 Senate investigation, King pleaded the Fifth ********* when questioned about his connection to mobster John Gotti. In public, however, he has responded to mob allegations by calling them racist.

      Mike Tyson, the former undisputed World Heavyweight Boxing Champion says of his former manager, King: "(King is) a wretched, slimy, reptilian motherf--. This is supposed to be my 'black brother' right? He's just a bad man, a real bad man. He would kill his own mother for a dollar. He's ruthless, he's deplorable, and he doesn't know how to love anybody."

      there u go.. dude is a bad man..

            Mike Tyson attacked King at the Beverly Hills hotel. We don't know exactly what happened the other times. You can't believe everything you hear from the media.

              I had a list from a friend a while ago of stuff that he's did over the years. I'm not sure if it was from a book or whatever, I'll have to ask him.

              One that stuck out to me was supposedly Blank Contracts. He'd have some fighter's sign blank contracts, which basically he could edit to however he saw fit later on.

                  I personally like Don King and see no difference in him than any of the other promoters who have done boxers wrong since the beginning of boxing.

                  The reason I think King gets more hate about what he has done in boxing is because of low-class upbringing, criminal past and the fact that he is black. People can sit here all day and say race doesn't matter anymore its 2010 but in truth we all that is complete bull****.
