    Evander Holyfield should be a lesson to all boxers. 100 bedroom house and 3 divorces, what a fool.

      You'd think he'd help his brother out but maybe he has and he's just blown that too.
      More than once.

      For such an average fighter, Leon made a huge amount of money. He blew it all and then whatever Michael gave him too

        Big George is actually broke.

        Oscar De la Hoya is really the only name that comes to mind. Maybe Tito if it's true about his gas company in PR.

          Carl Froch runs a property development company with his brother. They own lots of different properties around the country. He even mucks in himself with the work, when he isn't training you can find him laying floors and plastering walls etc.

Plus, I think all his seemingly reckless spending is a big ol facade to the public (he is "Money May" right?). Floyd is more business savvy then many give him credit for, hell I could be way off though.
            I think you're right...honestly, I think Pacquaio has higher chances of going broke since he gives away alot of his money, and sometimes trusts the wrong people with his money.

              He gambles heavily, that being said asking GB for an advance to pay his taxes is a good sign so far as showing that he isn't keeping the bulk of his money in hard cash.

                Michael doesn't have to give Leon anything imo.

                Michael managed his money well during the course of his career. It's not Michaels fault that Leon blew all his money.

                  I can understand where you're coming from but certain things is an issue of family pride. If I had millions I'd be embarrassed if a family member close to me was working just above minimum wage.

                  Wouldn't exactly pay for them to live a flashy and expensive lifestyle but I would ensure that they live a respectable life.

                    Paul Williams is real smart and has invested his money very well from what I hear

                      Big George is actually broke???
