King Dom says his health is much better than Mike Tysonis suggesting… claiming he is feeling fine and great after his 10-day hospital stay — despite MT basically saying he is on the verge of death.
The legendary boxing promoter released a statement through his representatives on Saturday … telling fans he is recovering and feeling well — and that he has a lot of love for Mike Tyson.
It’s a short and to the point statement… but clearly, DK wants everyone to know that his health issues are not as serious as previously reported.
ICYMI… Tyson went on the “It Is What It Is” podcast with Cam’ron and Mase — where he was asked about his current relationship with the controversial fight promoter.
Iron Mike says straight out that Don is not doing so well… citing his age and health issues as the main reasons.
As we told you…we contacted sources close to Don King, who confirmed Tyson’s comments — admitting he is not in the best of health after needing a blood transfusion in hospital.
So, King may just be faking it… pretending he’s feeling great when his health is really bothering him — in any case, Tyson’s comments blew up so much that Don finally felt the need to address them.

The King is famous for organizing the “The Rumble in the Jungle” and “Thrilla in Manila” fights between Muhammad Ali and George Foreman — but also for the $100 million lawsuit Tyson filed against him after Tyson said he stole millions from him. The two settled the lawsuit for $14 million.
Bottom line… Don says he’ll be around for a long time to continue watching the sport he loves, but others aren’t so sure.
