      Maybe it's supposed to be a joke like "this is the Don King way" of doing things. I don't know. I could see citizens petitioning for it as a joke. But can't believe city counsel members suggested it. Wouldn't that just hurt their PC credibility as "community leaders" who aren't supposed to have senses of humor even about funny things, let alone about someone being killed?

            "Cleveland's city council won't further consider a proposal to put Don King's name on the street where the legendary boxing promoter stomped a man to death in 1966."

            And that come only few days after his support to "Don" Trump? so I'm on wikipedia to see if the mayor of Cleveland is ********.... and the answer is yes ^^

              Reading this story is just laughable, you have to remember that don stomped a man who weigh a 100lb who was no physical threat to him (Don was at least 300lb)

              And that piece of **** got sent down on a man slaughter charge and served 4 years

              Fast forward 2 years later the judge and jury were ringside for an Ali fight

              Only in a America hey!

                Geez... you Trumpiots are a sick joke sometimes. In your mind, everything is political. Anyone with a lick of common sense would know you don't name anything after a murderer. Or maybe they should, according to you. I can see it now.... Ted Bundy Women's Center, Charles Manson High School, Jeffrey Dahmer Boulevard, Jack The Ripper Stadium, John Wayne Gacy Daycare Center...

                And no, I'm not a HC fan, so don't start in with any clap trap b.s.

                  Don King reminds me of the Frank Zappa song "I Am The Slime".
