That's right, right, 0:02:03.160 --> 0:02:05.120 I heard it. I just saw a number. Yes, it's 0:02:05.200 --> 0:02:07.400 it's up like near like nine hundred and thirty million, 0:02:08.720 --> 0:02:09.360 pass a billion. 0:02:09.480 --> 0:02:10.400 Crazy a couple of. 0:02:10.400 --> 0:02:14.400 Weeks for a bio fit. Yeah, it's crazy, amazing. That's 0:02:14.560 --> 0:02:20.600 probably I think number two of biopics. 0:02:20.280 --> 0:02:24.480 Music up like it's it's been a good yeah, yeah, yeah, 0:02:24.480 --> 0:02:26.519 it's crazy, man, but good times. 0:02:26.840 --> 0:02:29.520 What kind of research did you have to do to 0:02:29.560 --> 0:02:31.520 get to get ready to play don Ky Man? 0:02:32.560 --> 0:02:38.000 So I looked at like all the video of how 0:02:38.680 --> 0:02:40.760 I looked at a lot of footage of Don, and 0:02:40.840 --> 0:02:45.480 I looked at other portrayals of him, and you know, 0:02:45.520 --> 0:02:48.160 it was all kind of silly, you know, And so 0:02:48.520 --> 0:02:50.720 I just went to did a little background check. I 0:02:50.760 --> 0:02:52.320 don't know if a lot of people know this, but 0:02:52.400 --> 0:02:55.160 Don King went to jail for killing two people, right. 0:02:56.800 --> 0:03:02.760 Two too, did four years and got out. 0:03:02.880 --> 0:03:07.440 That's crazy four years and got out and man, and 0:03:07.720 --> 0:03:11.320 just was like, Yo, this is America and that's what 0:03:11.440 --> 0:03:13.240 made him go off onto that, And so. 0:03:13.200 --> 0:03:15.800 I was like, don wow, you know. 0:03:15.880 --> 0:03:18.320 But then I also started thinking once he started became up, 0:03:18.560 --> 0:03:22.120 when he became a boxing promoter. From what I heard, 0:03:23.040 --> 0:03:24.840 they were saying that he took a lot of money 0:03:24.840 --> 0:03:27.640 from a lot of people, but nobody came after him. 0:03:28.080 --> 0:03:28.640 Ain't nobody. 0:03:29.639 --> 0:03:32.720 You never heard of nobody coming after Doe because Don 0:03:32.880 --> 0:03:35.320 was plugged, you know what I mean, he was plugged, 0:03:35.360 --> 0:03:37.160 like out in Vegas with them boys. 0:03:37.200 --> 0:03:39.440 I mean, get out for two and four years. 0:03:39.560 --> 0:03:44.680 You two boxes four years, and you took millions from 0:03:44.720 --> 0:03:48.160 people from from allegedly took millions from people or whatever. 0:03:48.200 --> 0:03:51.240 And they were saying that and nobody came after him 0:03:51.320 --> 0:03:55.400 or whatever. I was like, Nah, I'm we're gonna We're 0:03:55.400 --> 0:03:56.440 gonna play him different. 0:03:56.520 --> 0:03:58.920 Yeah, it's a different don you know, we're gonna we're 0:03:58.920 --> 0:04:01.480 gonna show how how he get down, you know. 0:04:01.840 --> 0:04:05.920 So that was my that was my thought process as 0:04:05.960 --> 0:04:09.720 far as, like, you know, looking up what he was 0:04:09.880 --> 0:04:13.160 and what he meant to that moment in the movie 0:04:13.320 --> 0:04:14.400 and the film or whatever. 0:04:14.640 --> 0:04:16.719 I heard Don King say this before. He's like a 0:04:16.720 --> 0:04:19.560 lot of people assuming me they don't like me. But 0:04:19.600 --> 0:04:21.520 one thing I always do is read the fine print. 0:04:22.040 --> 0:04:24.960 So he must always kept his contracts in tect kept 0:04:25.160 --> 0:04:27.360 always read the fine print, you know what I'm saying. 0:04:27.400 --> 0:04:29.640 So his corent the reason why nobody probably got him 0:04:29.839 --> 0:04:31.320 because he always had his paperwork right. 0:04:31.360 --> 0:04:34.200 Probably that's real. But Don always thought different. Even in 0:04:34.200 --> 0:04:38.440 that movie where Ving Rings played them. He said in 0:04:38.480 --> 0:04:41.040 that movie, he was like, he was like, I washed 0:04:41.040 --> 0:04:44.880 my hands before, I before, I before, I mean, I 0:04:44.920 --> 0:04:46.400 mean that was the first time I ever heard some 0:04:46.440 --> 0:04:48.080 ship what. 0:04:49.600 --> 0:04:50.920 Before I hate for grind mine. 0:04:51.000 --> 0:04:53.479 That's the former movie movie was that was. 0:04:57.600 --> 0:04:57.720 Good? 0:04:57.800 --> 0:05:01.080 Yeah, yeah, but that was his mentality all always thinking different, 0:05:01.200 --> 0:05:03.039 always playing against it. 0:05:03.320 --> 0:05:05.720 Was a little bit more hood like you said, yeah, 0:05:06.080 --> 0:05:07.240 he wasn't going to play. 0:05:07.040 --> 0:05:10.600 With yeah yeah, no, no, no, everybody that played don 0:05:10.760 --> 0:05:13.120 King played them silly, and they felt like they could 0:05:13.240 --> 0:05:19.600 because you know, the hair, the flags and him always smiling, but. 0:05:19.839 --> 0:05:26.520 He was with the ship.
