    Anybody got any stories on him.Here's what ive read and heard

    Once ran his own gang in New York with up to 100 soldiers

    When Don King owed him money he took his gang to Madison Sq garden to confront him but king had already hired armed bodyguards.

    Wasn't he out of the Black Spades by the time he got into boxing, like around the mid-1970's or so? Iran Barkely was in the gang with him, and said in his book he was the toughest one. I've heard a story once about him and Tim Witherspoon hanging out and drinking, and Mitch supposedly shot one of Don King's cows, and blamed it on Tim.

    Iran Barkely's, part of which is on Google Books.
