    Anyone else at least for nostalgic reasons happy to see Don back in the ring in the center of a major fight again & sitting with Mayweather Jr. to boot.
    (Don making moves)

    Just a change of pace of the usual De La Hoya, Arum, Shaw we have been used to these last years..
    (P.S. it's still "F" Don king all day)

    Don King, for all his flaws, has never tanked an important fight the way Bob Arum has.


    He is known for at least making the fight happen.

    In a way :lol: It's nice to see him back.

    Then again, when a few years down the line I hear of Kotelnik being penniless, I'll be reminded about why I hated King in the first place.

    He gives the fans what they want and knows how to promote a fight from Manila to the U.S

    He's probably more bad for the fighters he handles than he is good for the fans, but fortunately we boxingfans are a selfish bunch of assholes and we just wanna see the fights. Hurrah for Don King!! lol

    Don King is back. And his ability to have the judges scores always turn out in his fighters favor is back as well. Haha. Not saying we saw "horrific" judging tonight but all six judges scoring the main two fights 116-112 in favor of King's fighters is interesting, at best. Especially when both guys got outlanded.

    I have the same nostalgia for Don King as I have for your avatar Antonio Margarito...NONE. Both of these men should go away.

    Imagine if this was DON KING'S ploy all along ?

    Truly the greatest promoter of all time ..He's prob like hmm I don't beleive the hype around this fight is enough (Mayweather Pacquio ) ..Whats missing ?Oh I know me !!


    Imagine if King says lets make it in Manilla :lol::lol::lol:
