For promoting four of the most coveted guys in boxing: Cotto, margarito, Pavlik, and Pacman (all not really old I might add).

And for saying that UFC is “a bunch of white guys that can’t compete in any other sport.”

Well boozeboxer, following your own reasonng, Don King should be at the top the list.


Do you want a list of top promoters by country? Or a just a list of the more popular ones?

Has he even had a winning fighter this millenium? Kings role as a significant promoter died along with the myth of the invincible Tyson.

Recently Don King has the habit of signing prospects only to put them on the shelf and only allow them to fight once a year.

Didn't he also make the Hatton-Kostzyu fight and Calzaghe-Lacy both were legit fights at the time
