Yeah, right... predators don't die. This is a part of human life, and a HUGE part of capitalism. As long as there's someone ready to be taken advantage of (and boxers are prime for that) then there's going to be somebody there to take advantage of them.
Yeah but will they have the personality longevity and ability to deceive the public like these two. Of course there will always be promoters but will they be celebrities like these two are.

Yep, Floyd would still get 180 mil and Pac would still get 120 mil. But Don King would have had Floyd use King's cousin as his trainer, King's son as his accountant, King's daughter as his lawyer, King's aunt as the cutman, and done the same for Pac, and Floyd would end up with about $20M left and Pac about $10M left or some shyt.

Of course there will be. Everybody always talks about someone being the last... There's NEVER a last. Sooner or later there will be an UPGRADED version of Don King.

When? Cause in almost 40 years of him and Arum in the game I have yet to see someone take that throne and have the personality to match. Never will we see a promoter who was such a celebrity that he has had an HBO movie on him.

only thing don king did was beat cacs at ther own game.
Came in with no education or resources or outwit all them mafia promoters. Gave fighters more money tthan they ever got even if they were on the shelf for years. Yet he gets a bad rep.

All cause cacs were mad. Till this day he's the face of robbing fighters when Italians done worse.
