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."

No copyright infringement intended. I only want to make sure those that haven't seen this version of the play have the chance to. It's one of the more amazing pieces of television ever produced. If you like this program please purchase the Golden age of Television DVD's from Criterion.
