    I wouldnt be surprised if he told him to **** off, seriously. Ali,im sure, would have known about King travelling with Frazier in Jamaica and leaving with Foreman and now here he was again, trying to do the same thing

    Mickey Duff tells a story : When John Mugabi was on the rise Duff had to leave Mugabis camp to take care of something.King calls Duff and tells Duff thst Mugabi is begging King to sign him but King wont out of respect for Duffs contract with Mugabi.At which point Duff tells King he didnt know King could speak Swali(dont know if I spelled that right-it was Mugabi tribal language)-King responds he doesnt speak it and Dudd informs him that thats what Mugabi speaks-Duff says after a long pause King hangs up.

    Theres a chapter on him in the Tyson book. ive always wanted to type it up, just never get around to it would take me hours. Numerous interesting stories about him, the guy is one dirty mutherfunker.

    FYI: Roy Williams wasn't undefeated when he fought Holmes, Roy was 23-4.

    "I saw him outside a hotel, i asked him about the money and he denied it, so i stomped him, i stomped him and stomped him, i loved this man, but i stomped him"
