Thank Don King?
If anything, Don is partly responsible for Mike's downfall.
Tyson's best Promoter and Manager were Jimmy Jacobs and
Bill Cayton...they were responsible for making the Story of "Tyson" known to the public; they were the hype machine...Tyson was the one that provided the story and later backed it up.
Tyson is the one that people went and saw...it is Tyson's fighting and his great interviews that gets crowds to spend money, not DON KING.
Tyson had the ability, probably one of the best talented fighters of all time, but he needed that Support system to keep him on track, without that, he derailed.
