Comments Thread For: Coyne Challenges Don King: Three Years In Hell Is Up

[ShoulderRoll]

Wonder what the boxing landscape will be when the two dinosaurs, King and Arum, kick the bucket? Oh the greener pastures that will spring up!

Far be it from me to wish death on anyone. But both of these old ****s should at least retire and get out of the sport.

This is one aspect that's killing boxing. DKP doesn't want to work with Coyne any longer, so they abandon him. Coyne's team finds a fight, and now DKP wants to stop it? BS on that one...
I've worked with Coyne's team. They did everything they said they would, and were the upmost professionals. Heck, one of his guys even went and sold some tix to help with the show...

don king use to put on the best PPV cards but he isn't the ruler anymore but he has stiverne(he has always been a HW guy)& has pulled rabbits out of his hats in recent years. he was the main reason haye won the WBA title & got haye his 3 PPV fights. he sold out valuev to get 3 options on haye. he got his piece of the pie on PPV money on the ruiz, harrison & wlad fights. he still has a couple of decent fighters in his stable. he hurts more fighters then he helps nowadays but he has made guys boatloads of money. it's not his fault they spend it. the real problem is if you lose a couple of fights he will put you on the shelf. he will get you good fights only until he has better fighters to soak his money into then they will get left behind. the key is to not sign multi-fight deals with him.
