Im sick of hearing about poor hard done by Mike Tyson who was matched soft and lavished with $300 dollars ! Did Don King force him to rape that girl ? Don King showed errors of judgement but to suggest he wanted Tyson to fuck up is ludicrus. Don King promotes Evander Holyfield and is still making him money and lots of it , do you hear Holyfield complaining or Julio Ceasar Chavez or Tito Trinidad ?
What did Don King do to McClelland ? Not stump up his end ? Well I suggest you read War,baby' and Dark Trade' or get your facts right .


Then we have the faceless HBO making millions out of fighters at the very top of the sport whilst the promoters like Don King and Frank Warren build them up and have them stolen . What about De la hoya - Felix Sturm ?Nobody ever says anything about that.
The Middleweight tournement that put Hopkins on top who's brainchild ? Tito,Holmes and Joppy all controlled by Don King , no ? HBo wouldn't touch those fighters,it was King that made that happen .
Hopkins career was languishing,he wasn't with HBO yet now he has the greatest of success .

What about Ricky Hatton, Joe Calzaghe and Naz all built up by Sports Network !
Where were HBO when Naz was fighting Peter Buckley at the York Hall and where were they when Joe Calzaghe couldnt sell out Cardiff Castle and the Cardiff Ice Rink when he was boooed back to the dressing room ?

I am not a fan of Frank Warren or Don King we all complain about them not matching their fighters yet they take the risks put their end in show paitence when a fighter pulls out at short notice or puts a shit performence in and then fighters run off when the big bucks are shown .

I think it's time people grew up.
Big Dick as Jaz pointed he killed two people, one he shot in the back and the other he kicked to death for owing him money.

A crazy hairdo and a jolly eccentric personality shouldn't disguise the fact that he is evil to the fucking core and would kill his own gran for a buck.

I find him entertaining but he's up there with the likes of Hitler, Pol Pot and Saddam in terms of character traits.
Seems like Big Dick has some anger issues, seems to dish out warning that we all need to get our fact right and grow up and listen to him open up about things he is going to tell us that we don't know. You obviously have the internet try a Google search on some sujects before you get your panties in a knot and don't refer to the same two books you've read.

Bilbo has it right the man is manipulative scum who used to run a numbers racket and killed one man for a few bucks.He ties fighters up with deals that would need a dozen lawyers to unravel and had his son do work as a manager so he could do the promo work and get a slice both ways.
