More quotes by Don King
I don't promote boxing, I promote people. Boxing is a catalyst to bring people together.

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
I am a product of a rat and roach infested black ghetto. It is easy for me to rationalize my dealings as a numbers man. I'll defend men today who are involved in it.
Don King
There's only one rule anyone connected with boxing must keep in mind - everything you here in boxing is a lie.
Don King
Mike Tyson has been given ever penny he has coming.
Don King
When we started, it was based on lies. It's changing now. There are no secrets in the business. You've got to come with the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. It's becoming very confusing.
Don King
People are my most important asset. Faith in the supreme being, trust, credibility and performance are the things that have brought me to the top.
Don King
Muhammad Ali - he was a magnificent fighter and he was an icon... Every head must bow, every knee must bend, every tongue must confess, thou art the greatest, the greatest of all time, Muhammad, Muhammad Ali.
