Boxing’s greatest showman, Don King, has an undying passion for the sport. The most entertaining promoter of all times gets a special kick when he promotes any boxing event. In his 90s, when everything slowed down for the charismatic figure of boxing, it was the sport that persuaded him to prolong more years with energy.

Recently, the iconic promoter took up probably the last job of his life in a storm-damaged Miami. He himself went to sell a fight, which he has been doing with excellence for 50 years. King attended a ceremony on Saturday in Miami to promote a heavyweight clash between WBA title holder Trevor Bryan and the challenger Daniel Dubois.

However, the event did not live up to the expectations, which brought heavy criticism to the renowned promoter.

The picture of the event circulated on the social media platform displayed the vacant seats were more in numbers than the filled ones while the event was being promoted. Though it is not a huge issue, it happens. But when the event is headed by a man like Don King, then expectations are certainly high.

In another tweet he wrote, “And yes, it was a Don King event. Still a thing in 2022!”
