    He has lost his stranglehold on the heavyweight division now though, considering the 3 main men of the division (2 Klits and Haye) have nothing to do with King or the WBA at the moment.

    i know and hop[efully it stays that way.

    Don King is like a drug for boxing. Good at the right dosage but too much of him becomes a serious bad addiction

    Benn should've maybe pushed for a WBC/WBA unification even after Nunn lost. A match with Virgil Hill was actually close to being made in early 96!

    He was set to unify vs Steve Little on the Mccall Bruno undercard but Little got injured and they brought in that late replacement who had Benn on ***** strret for a while, Danny someone.

    It just goes to show what a **** poor state of affairs that boxing is in when I look back and feel all warm and nostalgic about Don King...the man was/is a mobster thug but I would take him over Warren et al everyday of the week
