Story of a ‘Harlem Don’ Stealing $600,000 from the Man Who Robbed Mike Tyson of His $100 Million Resurfaces During Tupac Murder Case Discussion

“The only justice in this case is the street justice,” declared Greg Kading, the former lead detective of the American Federal Taskforce. He was responsible for delving into the late 90s murders of iconic rap artists, Tupac Shakur and Biggie Smalls. Kading’s stark assertion sheds light on the enduring mystery surrounding these tragic events.

Meanwhile, the famous American journalist reminded his viewers and Kading about a story related to a Harlem Don, who robbed a large sum of money from Don King. Yes, the same Don King who once allegedly robbed Mike Tyson.

DJ Vlad reminds Mike Tyson’s story about Eric Von Zip

The reporter, DJ Vlad, talked about the whole Tupac murder case. However, amidst that conversation, Mike Tyson was also discussed.

Vlad recalled how Tyson narrated the old incident where Eric Von Zip, a Harlen Don, robbed his former promoter, Don King. They used Tyson’s old clip where he explained, “One day Don comes and tries this s**t with me, put around $600,000 and in a bag. And then Zip just told, ‘Come, let’s come back later. We’ll talk about that’.” And that’s how Zip took $600,000 from King.

“He walked them out the door, and he’s like, ‘Hey man, let me get some of that money to pay some people, I gotta pay the people, people at WBC’. ‘Don, just come back. Please come back not right not now. He’s just not feeling well.'”

He also talked about how Zip was quite a sweet talker and walked King out the door. Tyson was baffled after seeing so much money. However, it seemed that Don King took his revenge on Tyson, as he was able to steal $100 million from him.

Details of Mike Tyson’s accusation of fraud against Don King

In a bold legal move, former heavyweight boxing champion Mike Tyson filed a $100 million lawsuit against Don King back in 1998. Tyson alleged that King orchestrated an elaborate scheme. He deprived him of tens of millions of dollars over more than a decade.

The lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court in Manhattan, portrayed King and his companies as a unified entity that exploited Tyson’s vulnerability. They took advantage of a boxer who was deemed unsophisticated in contractual matters.

The legal action asserted Tyson’s deprivation of fair participation in deals exceeding $100 million. He also attributed his financial distress to a prolonged pattern of fraudulent conduct. The roots of this alleged deception trace back to 1986 when King entered Tyson’s life, assuming various roles from manager to promoter until 1998.

In the end, the case was settled for $14 million, and Tyson never got his $100 million back. As it turns out, the duo didn’t hold animosity against each other even after the infamous legal dispute. What are your thoughts about this? Tell us in the comments section.
