Comments Thread For: Stiverne Sues Don King, Claims Violations of Ali Act

Every time I hear about King I remember the Lennox Lewis story, where King was jonesing to get Lewis signed. Lewis, after a fight, said he'd meet King for breakfast the next morning at like 9am. But Lennox left on a 7am flight. HA

But yeah, King is the old guard snake who just needs to go away. Thing is, Karl will probably just follow in Don's footsteps without even missing a beat.

How can a fighter be ****** enough to sign with King? His bad history of cheating fighters is sooooooo long.....

Main reason is that the guy is persuasive as hell and is an incredible salesman. Lots of smart guys signed with King. Worth remembering too that a lot of the time guys don't have a lot of options and are desperate for anyone to move their career forward.

Hasn't Don King stolen enough hard earned money from these guys over the years he is what 85, what is the purpose of him still scamming some guy who just wants his opportunity he is more than set for life.

You would think he would have at least learned a little something over these last 75 years of ripping dudes off. Every single one of his fighters leaves him in the end and he just keeps on waiving that dumb little American flag around like it means something.

How does Don King still have fighters?

I think Stiverne and Cloud are like his last two that mean anything at all and Stiverne is about to leave it looks like if he isn't with someone else already.
