Reader comment on:
Shady Maneuvering Mars Heavyweight Championship

Submitted by Bottle of Vodka, Feb 15, 2007 17:02

Don King defines sleazy and this story reads like it's written by a King PR hack. King refused to let any of his fighters face the Klitschkos because he wants to control the division and is the main reason we've not had a unified champion in many years. Besides Peter didn't earn a mandatory title shot. He lost to Wladimir and split two fights with Toney who is old and fat and his people know if he fights Vitali his head will fly into row 6, seat 9.
