-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.

(72,602 posts)The man is scum. He had Mike Tyson build a huge mansion way out in the
countryside of northeast OH and skimmed lots of money off the top. I think
Tyson never really lived in it and sold it at a loss but King got his cut off the
top. A friend's father or father in law did some of the plumbing on the project
and I heard 2nd hand that King was always pushing him for some kickback $.
The plumber got his money for what he did and quit the job rather then stick
around and put up w/King.
Trump and King belong together.
BTW I still can't process how Trump is gonna be POTUS.
