More quotes by Don King
She's (Christy Martin) voluptuous and intoxicating no smear lipstick. Here's a woman who pounds it out and her lipstick don't smear. Revlon should jump on that like white on rice, you know what I mean? Max Factor, Elizabeth Arden.
Don King
America is the greatest country in the world - I love America. What I've accomplished could not have been done anywhere else.
Don King
You see, the problem with me is I'm so good even my friends think I'm doing something wrong. Flair and flamboyance is not illegal. It may be detestable, it may be offensive, but it's not illegal.
Don King
I'm an ardent American Football fan.
Don King
I never get tired because it ain't energy that's being dispenced. It is GOD speaking through me.

I tell Donald Trump that the establishment will tell their lies. They will try to keep him down. I tell him, 'Now Mr. Trump, they're treating you like a black man.' I say, 'Mr. President, you know what it's like to be a black man. No matter what you say or do, you are guilty as hell.'
Don King
You go for the quality of the performance, not the longevity of it.

When I came into boxing, when it was more out of control, no fighters got an opportunity to fight. I came in: everybody got an opportunity to make a living in America.
Don King
I will fight for America till the day I drop.

I can't believe what I said about myself. What I said in my own private conversations with myself to an ESPN producer are my business, and I had no business saying them to someone else.
Don King
You sign an agreement you make a contract, you live up to it. You never get what you deserve. You get what you negotiate. You got a right to say yay or nay.
Don King
If Trump were a boxer, he'd be Muhammad Ali. Because he's going to win. He's going to run his mouth, he's going to talk a lot and he's going to win. And you ain't going to know which way he's going. You had the Louisville Lip, he'd be the New York Lip!
Don King
Don King is a damn sleezebag. King is nothing but a strong-arm man. He has taken his gangsterism and put it into boxing.
Don King
If he says he has the pizzazz and the sizzle, I have the steak, and substance. I've made more money than he's made. I've made bigger deals than he's made, when he's got the complexion to get the protection.
Don King
I never cease to amaze myself. And I say this humbly
Don King
Don't worry about appeasing the establishment. Don't acquiesce to an alleged power. Be with the people, not the establishment. The guy that's sitting next to you, that's who you got to beware. Judas was sitting right next to Jesus.
Don King
When you lose the title, that doesn't mean you lose the contract to what you had. Just like when you win the title, it doesn't mean you win brains, PhDs and MAs.
Don King
There's nothing wrong with options. Options are everywhere. In movies, in sports. Options is not a dirty word. I need to pay my overheads, you know. I invest a lot of money developing a fighter and then I deserve to reap the rewards.
Don King
From the very beginning I used sound business practices in everything I did. White businessman uses them to make money he's a genius. Black businessman uses them he's a crook. That's the way it is.
Don King
It ain't about if he knocks a guy out. It's about how he knocks a guy out. It's the style, the improvisation.
