Don King, on Mike Tyson


"Why would anyone expect him to come out smarter?
He went to prison, not to Princeton."



"To me, boxing is like a ballet, except there's no music
and the dancers hit each other."

The gash on the forehead of the fighter was as gruesome as you are likely to see, unless you are watching a splatter flick.

But Badou Jack wasn’t appearing in “Friday the 13th Part 17: Broner’s Revenge.”

The Swedish born hitter, age 35, clashed heads in the ring at the MGM Grand, mashing skulls with foe Marcus Browne.

That occurred in round seven and the copious amount of crimson fluid on Jack’s face had watchers cringing.

And when the camera zoomed in on the slice, even seasoned fight watchers recoiled.
