    I have a hypothesis that the WBC want to rank Paul to give him a shot at Makabu, who is about King's only fighter of note. That way Sulaiman can get King paid and alleviate any financial stress he appears to have.

    It's 2022 and boxers are STILL signing up with Don King?? Why would anyone still sign up with him knowing his histories of ripping fighters off over the past decades? You'd think by now everyone would learn.

    "Welcome to the bermuda triangle of the WBA heavyweight title Mr Dubois! I see you are suing Don King, good good just as the process states. Please take a seat over there next to Mr Oquendo and Mr Charr. Can I get you anything while you wait for the next 5-10 years?"

    Does the blame go on Frank Warren for sending Dubois on this WBA journey?

    Don King is scum and is sued by every fighter he cheats. Strange it took this guy so long to sue him.

    Didn't Tim Witherspoon lose years of his career over this issue?
