      im not sure about floyd though. i kind of read from Arum`s comment before that when floyd was still on his stable and not yet a big name, the guy was financially troubled in a sense that he was like doing extra work aside from boxing just to pay the bills in his house.

          I think JMM has a degree in accounting and both the Klitschko's are well educated too. Middle class?

            The Marquez brothers grew up poor in a dangerous part of Mexico City. I remember reading about how they were all cramped in a small home. Rafael even got robbed there a few years ago and thrown into the trunk of his car.

              Klitschkos are children to an upper middle class family. Father is a high ranking officer, mother is a teacher.

                I didn't know that. I guess Juan did fairly well then, considering that's the kind of environment he came from.

                Makes sense, they seem like the regimented type.
