          He ripped off too many fighters to name, that alone ended up being his demise.
          There's a video Don King unauthorized bio, you should watch it, it tells you about how he promised Ali $8M for the Holmes fight (knowing he had Parkinson's) and only gave him $50,000. Also, he ruined the career of Tim Witherspoon. At least Tyson beat his a$$.
