GREAT - GREAT PRESS RELEASE YESTERDAY ON SCUMBAG DON KING. I think this was already released a few weeks ago but just in case any of you missed it here it is again., --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- October 27, 2014 Don King liable for canceled title fight after boxers drug test Convicted murderer charged with crime once again A U.S. judge found boxing promoter Don King liable for breach of contract over an April 25 world championship cruiserweight bout that was canceled after one of his fighters, challenger Guillermo Jones, failed a drug test. The judge in Manhattan said Jones disqualification for testing positive for the diuretic furosemide, just a few hours before he was scheduled to fight Denis Lebedev in Moscow, plainly put King in breach even if the promoter had nothing to do with the failed test. King had been sued for $2.4 million over the canceled fight by the Russian boxing promoters Andrey Ryabinskiy and Vladimir Hrunov, who do business as World of Boxing LLC. Damages will be determined later. Scheindlins decision is dated Oct. 1 and was made public on Thursday. The case is World of Boxing LLC et al v. King et al, U.S. District Court, Southern District of New York, No. 14-03791.
