Boxing is a lot more lucrative than bodybuilding.  King makes his living off suckng the blood out of Boxers and there winnings.  Bodybuilders don't make dick for their hard work as it is, what would King get out of a 10,000 first place check.  He does have some business savvy, but nothing close to what it would take to drag this sport into the mainstream.

You think bodybuilders don't make dick now, what would happen if King got ahold of the IFBB or PDI?  Think about all the money boxers supposedly made from their fights and how many are broke now?  And not to mention what he did to the greatest boxer of all time.  Fvck Don King, there is a special place in hell for him.
