During Mike Tyson’s career he was used by his promoter Don King. King didn’t care for Tyson like D'Amato did. When D’Amato passed away Tyson just wasn’t the same. D'Amato never used Tyson for his money. But when he passed Mike was on his own and had to choose someone to promote him. As a young black male it was hard to stay away from the money and the fame. Don King took advantage of that and promoted Tyson.
Tyson’s career started to take a down fall because he had no one to care for him like D'Amato. King was all about the money and didn’t care if Tyson got into trouble or not. Tyson wasn’t getting good training and all he wanted to do was party he admitted in his movie Tyson. Tyson is still a hall of famer in boxing but he could have been even better if he had people to look after him instead of just his money.
This Just shows you have to be careful for who you can trust. It can have a bad effect on your career like it did on Mike Tyson. It could be a great lessoned learned.
