    Forget the Tyson part, I actually like the King of the Nile idea.

    although the God he worships is green, King was a hell of a promoter.
    I can't imagine Bob Arum ever displaying that level of creativity or insight.
    If Tyson had one left in him he could wipe out all his debt and it would be a huge event. Plus having his own Promotional company Tyson could get a larger slice of the pie.

    LOL. Arum must have read this and start shaking in his boots. Probably telephoning all around to see if there was a shred of possibility that King and Tyson were actually planning a come back.

    People often wonder how King is still worth 9 figures after being relegated to punchline status and enduring all those lawsuits. Simple answer...he's MUCH smarter than he looks or sounds.

    Don King is funny until You remember he shot a man in the back, beat another to death, robbed some of your boxing heroes blind (Ali, Holmes, Tyson, etc.), rigged entire tournaments and threatened to have the fighters killed after leaking it, the list goes on. Every fight he was involved with was shady in some way or another. Boxing is still recovering from Don King, it may never recover completely. If you were one of his fighters you were basically a slave.

    I wish the sport would just agree to banish this guy and journalists would agree to ignore his rambling but I know it won't happen.

    :rofl

    yeah Arum is worried about a guy that hasnt been relevant in more than a decade. Arum has enough creativity or insight to stay at the top, while kings only champion won his title on ESPN2 last time out :lol:

    A reporter asked King that question regarding his net worth.
    No magazine or Net worth internet site has ever been able to find out how much he is actually worth.
    King's reply to the reporter,
    "baby, if you can count it, then you ain't got it".

    That comment is a lot more complex than it seems.

    Look at this, just look at this.

    The belt is already kept hostage, Stiverne doesn't wants to fight and lose it, the reptilian mother****er, assassin, woman beater, mobster and supreme corruptor still thinks of having any power and is of course planning to build up other fake fixed fights in WWE style.

    Now THATS what happen, with one belt free. Imagine the absolute BROTHEL there would be if the others belts weren't held by the champ.

    King has a lot of wonderful stories

    heres one, taken out of Tysons autobiography.

    Witherspoon was promoted by Don King and managed by Carl King (yep, father and son)

    Most of the time, if someone has a problem with their promoter, they speak to their manager!

    After one of 'Spoons fights was over, King charged him for expenses incurred.

    When charging Spoon for the cost of hiring sparring partners, what should have been $700.00 was 'accidentally' made into $7,000 because King put an extra zero 'in error'.

    Both Kings robbed Spoon blind and he took them to court, he claimed he lived in a one bedroom flat that most people would be ashamed of.

    Once the Kings got a whiff of the court case, they blackballed Spoon and made sure he never receieved any big paydays again

    This is why we didnt see Tyson/Witherpsoon.

    King is a crook and a big time theif (and a murderer too)
