Don King is a clown and a genuinely bad guy [View all]
"Don King talks black, lives white and thinks green."
-Belinda Ali
-Belinda Ali
He is the perfect "black friend" for Donald Trump. He is a clown and a genuinely bad guy. Tim Witherspoon , who was once in Muhammad Ali's training camp , was in a training camp for one of Don King's fighters. King told him "we serve pork here" unlike in Ali's training camp. He once made a young Larry Holmes grovel before he loaned him fifty dollars. He was behind a past it and sick Muhammad Ali coming out of retirement to fight Larry Holmes. Holmes didn't want the fight because he saw no upside fighting an old Ali but he said when someone waves eight million dollars in front of you it's hard to say no. Muhammad Ali successfully sued him for not giving him the proceeds from the fight which was blood money King tricked him into taking pennies on the dollar.
He screwed every boxer he worked with.
