    I miss King's being a force among the big men:dead His roster among the heavyweight has never been weaker

    # 1 Nikolai Valuev
    # 2 Kali Meehan
    # 3 Sam Peter
    # 4 Daverryl Willmson
    # 5 Ray Austin

    King needs to disappear from boxing, they guy has been hurting his fighters by not putting cards at all, just letting the European promoters or other promoter put them on under cards. No network want to negotiate with king, the only thing that king is good at all is in the under cards the guy put a lot of awesome under cards that can be main event. sadly most of the cards are not shown, and king knowing that they are inactive put them to fight dangerous opponent for peanuts.

    He should just retire as a promoter and take over as WBA president. He already owns them.

    King used to have a lot better hold on the HW division but all those controversial decisions and avoidance of good fights will catch up to you. Now King's down to his last good card, Valuev, after that, King might as well retire or focus on bettering his business and promotional style, but he's older now and we know that won't happen.

    Add, Ruiz, Golota, Briggs, Liakhovich, Drummond, and several other young fighters.

    DKP has a good stable of fighters, only that he loves to keep them inactive.

    King always focused on the heavyweights and when he has no one then you know he's running out of business and soon I hope!

    King owns 100% of Ruiz.
