    He was what he was. He wasn’t a good guy he was terrible but he is an icon and was a really fun promoter 100%.

    Add Queen Elizabeth, former Mexican President Luis Echevarria, the two Popes and a few others to that list...those old peoples will live forever it seems!

    Blimey, he's done well to get to that age.
    Thought Tyson might have bumped him off years ago!

    Despite everything, he helped put on some of the biggest fights in history.

    Stomp an man to death and go to prison for it, and kill another man but got off through "justifiable homicide". Other than those events he's been an angel.

    A bit late to this one, read 1st and this page.

    To answer the OP, if Satan :devil2: agrees to it, yes.

    Taviris Cloud was King’s last relevant fighter & he became irrelevant ages ago . . .

    RIP indeed.

    Don King has all the strengths of a vampire, and none of the weaknesses. He's a day walker :confused:

    His eventual death will be huge, it'll celebrate his most phenomenal fights, his skullduggery, and the ghost of his career during the 2000's. That's fitting considering how polarizing he is as an individual

    Oh if you take a look at the WWE, you would notice that there is a big segment of "hall of fame" caliber wrestlers that received a real "life honoring" tribute despite the "not so" admirable things they have done outside of the ring. (See Jimmy snuka or the fabulous moolah ex....)

    That man can sit with a straight face and call Trevor Bryan the world heavyweight champion.

    That makes everything said about Chuck Norris null and void.
