Why does everybody hate Don King ?

[holmcall]

Tom Hauser used to vilify him; now he loves him. Go figure??

...still, I am yet to see another promoter come up with the fight cards Don King came up with.

The monsters . Sometimes I use to go to bed before the main event

I'll give you an example, remember the event called "Revenge: The Rematches"? Any other promoter nowadays would have each of those fights in the fight card as separate events really.

Don is no beter or no worse then most big promoters when it comes to the way he treats/treated his fighters....Don just had bigger stars, and he had bigger ideas then most...The man made boxing the money machine it has become, there was not such thing as million dollar paydays with double digits before Don.....The man brought promotion to a whole new level and contrary to popular belief he is a hard worker....Most promoters today have a huge staff of people doing all the leg work...Don still at his age is hands on everything....

To understand exactly how good King is as a promoter for those who don't know the behind the scenes workings of Ali/Foreman do some reasearch.....No one but Don could have pulled that off

As for his past aside from boxing yeah he was shady, he was an enforcer but I can name a 100 guys who have done worse


Love King or Hate King you have to respect what the man does/has done....Don went beyond the biggest player in the game he invented the game
