Watching the Peter-McCline replays I notcied he showe ZERO emotion when Peter was knocked down. I then started to think, I haven't seen him ever show emotion in any fight now matter what happened lol.
Anyone notice this?

If I made a billion dollars as a boxing promoter, I wouldn't give a shit either. Don King always has his name value, and he will always be there to promote one top fighter after another. He ain't starving.

i remember him getting up and showing emotion when tyson was getting it against douglas. :yep
and smiling when tito was dropped by vargas. :yep
Both McCline and Peter are with him, why should he be pissed if Peter lost?
As a matter of fact for a man who has seen Foreman get KO'd vs Ali live and MANY more, this is nothing shocking for him if Peter DID get stopped in the third.

I have said this many times. When Don King is no longer part of Boxing, it will be a much better sport.

Don knows, as I know that Peter aint shit. He has ZERO charisma, or the skills with the mic to make a truly marketable heavyweight, and on top of that, the bum McCline nearly knocks his block off. But the Atomic Bull is the International Champ, and was promised a title shot, so Peter had better enjoy that little interim belt while he can. Mccall is also one of my favorite fighters, I think Mccall can take Peter especially after tonites performance.

that is because DK has options on both fighters so he could care less who wins
DK walks into the ring with the champ and he leaves the ring with the champ....doesn't matter to him if its the same fighter or not

One I noticed in post interview with Don was that he didnt show too much confidence in Peter by calling out any other opponents when asked who were they going to get a match up against. Don just said "well we have to go through the WBC to see who his next opponent next is." instead of saying, we want this guy next, although we may have to fight the WBC mandatory. He just didnt sound too confident in his guy.

Do you remember Don King at the Golota-Brewster fight? The camera turned slightly on people at ringside when Golota was knocked down for the 3rd time.....everybody had an expression on their face, people screaming, mouths opend, covering their head with their hands......and then there was Don King, no emotion on his face, no angriness, no disappointmen, no joy.
We're speaking of a man who has been at ringide for any goddam fight for the last 40 years, from strawweight to heavyweight, there can't be no surprise for him.

He sure showed emotion when the referee gave the longest count ever to Luan Krasniqi.

Don't be stupid- Dempsey got at least a 18 count after being knocked down by Firpo. Admittedly, that was because he was knocked out of the ring, but still... :yep

Yeah empathy is not his strong suit. Maybe it has something to do with killing 2 men (justifiable homicide and 2nd degree murder).
