He gets credit for simply being there and taking a cut. He didn't do anything in particular that a hundred other promoters weren't there to do. High visibility, crazy hair, promoting himself as much as his fighters & taking most of the pay.

Hahahaha, the dude is, by far, the most successful promoter in history and you can't give him any credit. Pathetic.

Didn't do anything a hundred other promoters weren't there to do?!?

What is wrong with you . . .

How convenient. Don reigns for decades, things fall off a cliff without him, but we're not going to give him any credit for the success during his time . . .

Yes, about as convenient as you thinking the big purses came from Don King and not the advent of PPV.

I’ll just end it with this. How many fighters has Don worked under?

Has any single one of them had one decent thing to say about the man?

He’s scum and bad for boxing

I was unaware that Don King created PPV. My bad. Please carry on.

I’m sorry, I just never thought in my life I would encounter a don king supporter who’s last name wasn’t King. This is very foreign to me.

yes we definitely shouldn't give king any credit for the success of ppv, especially since he promoted the first ever boxing ppv and promoted many of the biggest ppvs of all time . . .

Don King is a legendary promoter whether you like him or not boxing is a dirty game promoters been robbing fighters way before king got in the game.The HW division is 5 deep it's far from being stacked.

Why would you give a creature like that credit for anything? If he came near me I'd spit point blank in his dying face. Go get yourself some morals.

And with fury being the next contestant on “my 800lb life” I think saying “5 deep” is generous
