Don King: Only In North Korea!

Legendary boxing promoter Don King has hinted that he hopes to put on a boxing match in North Korea.

The 81-year-old businessman told CNN that he wants to accomplish “sports diplomacy” on the Korean peninsula and help bring North and South Korea back together.

King explained to the cable news network that he has made his pitch to both the South Korean ambassador to the U.S. and a representative of the North Korean government he met in New York who said he would pass his proposal on to the country’s new leader, Kim Jong-un.

Though he is hopeful for a positive outcome, he also admits that the odds are not in his favor.
