great quote by Don King

[tarverthewoofer]

"You never get what you deserve. You get what you negotiate. You got a right to say yay or nay."

[BigMix27]

poignant fact, when you consider how many criminals are able to plea bargain their way to light sentences.

[cockey cockney]

Don King ain't nothing else but a product of Darwin's survival of the fittest theory.

Say what you want about the man... but he is the Greatest Promotor ever, and when he is on form, he is very witty.

"I can't believe that having said what I said was interpreted as having been what I said when I said it, because I said it where I said it, when I said it, and who I said it to."

"If you cast your bread upon the water and you have faith, you'll get back cash. If you don't have faith, you'll get soggy bread!"

"Mike Tyson has been given every penny he has coming"

He is an unscrupulous businessman, even though very good one. =)

Yea, you guys would probably like to allow Don to turn boxing into something like pro wrestling--all fake with fake judges, refs, and announcers.

Some aspects of boxing have been like that for hundreds of years, King is no different to premier promotors of the past. Making as much money as he can, doing whatever needs to do it. Boxing is not going to change anytime soon.
