Don King in Tokyo..

Uber boxing promoter Donald "Don" King was in Tokyo Monday night for the World Boxing Association Lightweight title fight between Jose Alfaro and Yusuke Kobori at Differ Ariake. The infamously flamboyant ex-bookmaker took time off from being sued to watch Kobori win by TKO. Don King has been jailed for murder and sued no less than half a dozen times, more often than not by his equally famous clients. He made promotional appearance for Bush's 2004 re-election campaign, represented Satan in the South Park episode 'Damien', and wears bling like it 'aint no thing'. Don King is 77 years old!

Andy McGovern shot the fight and caught these great pics of the cigar toting legend..
