Say what you want about Don King. People shit on him so much but nobody could put an event together like he did. No promoter has yet put on better undercards than that man.
Bob Arum was sucking back then with freak show undercards with the likes of Butterbean and Mia St John(enjoyed the view but as a boxing fan it was eh)
While Don King was putting on night of the rematches
Julio Cesar Chavez vs Frankie Randall
Azumah Nelson vs Jesse James Leija
Gerald McClellan vs Julian Jackson
Ricardo Lopez vs Kermin Guardia
Simon Brown vs Terry Norris
Meldrick Taylor vs Chad Broussard
Now that is an event. Look at all those names in one PPV card. No problem paying $60 bucks for that(Which was cheaper back then). Compared to what we're paying $60 bucks for now
Remember when Butterbean got KTFO by that chump from the midwest? That was one of the funniest moments in boxing
Nah, can't say I remember that one. I never really followed that circus act.
Neither did I. It was on some undercard. Dude was on the canvas for like ten minutes. Made Jones-Johnson look like a flash knockdown. I have to find it on youtube somewhere
