Friday Night Fights: On the FRONTLINE with Don King

Via the PBS warhorse FRONTLINE, here is Jack Newfield's 1991 "Unauthorized" profile of the boxing promoter. Less than an hour's worth of airtime can only thumbnail the greatest shits of Newfield's superb book THE LIFE & CRIMES OF DON KING, but sometimes seeing is disbelieving.

After the episode, I've queued the money shot from the HBO biopic DON KING: ONLY IN AMERICA. Motherfucker!
