    WTF.

    Dont get me wrong, everyone has to take responsibility for their actions but King is notorious fror conning and swindling his fighters. If Tyson earned a billion then King probably took 850 million of it.

    Thats what Mike Tyson said, before King screwed him out of millions

    How do you know when a boxing promotor is lying?
    His lips are moving

    If that happens to Floyd, he'd only have himself to blame. Go into dealings with Don King with your eyes wide open.

    Wrong. Manny never agreed to adequate blood testing to the day of the fight. That said, Don King will get the fight to happen with or without blood testing. He's that good.

    King gets this fight done. Bank on it.

    I wish it was possible to bet on whether this fight would happen or not.

    They made him millions as well.

    So you're saying his swindling them is justifiable because they were too stupid to know they were being swindled? Seriously!?

    I believe he can get the fight done. That's all I need to believe of him to support his involvement in Floyd's career. You and I get what we want from this arrangement.

    Let's not forget what happened with Julio Cesar Chavez.
    As much as people still hate DLH for fighting him, that was the first time Chavez ever saw real money and why Chavez wanted the rematch. DLH did for Chavez in 2 fights what King couldn't do an entire career.
