About Don King

Perhaps the most famous and outrageous hype man in boxing, Don King is an American boxing promoter known for his wild hairstyle and questionable policies. Born on August 20, 1931, King dropped out of Kent State University and started his own illegal gambling operation. After killing a man in self-defense, Don King took up a much safer business in the world of boxing. He eventually promoted such legendary boxing matches as the Thrilla in Manilla, pitting Ali vs. Frazier and even promoting individual fighters like George Foreman and Mike Tyson. Don King once said in an interview with Jet magazine that he uses a comb and Aqua Net to spray his trademark style into place.
