Comments Thread For: Holyfield's House Sells For $7 Million, But Owes $14 Million

[-PBP-]

Never would of thought selling your house for $7 million would be a bad thing.

Maybe the best thing he can do at this point is pick up the phone to Mike Tyson and try to persuade him to take the millions on offer for a third fight in the Middle East. It would disgrace the sport horribly but maybe that's just karma for the way boxing failed to look after these guys.

How's Mike doing for money?

Mike's doing well as far as I know.

Looks like we're gonna get that Holyfield-Ruddock dream fight.

Holyfield, who filed bankruptcy in Fayette County, Georgia, in 2008, has been alerted that the Georgia Department of Human Services has gone to court on behalf of Holyfield’s 18-year-old daughter. It alleged he owes $372,097.40 in child support that has gone unpaid since April 2010, according to TMZ.

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported in 2009 that Holyfield, whose 54,000-square foot house was up for foreclosure in 2008 and 2009, has child support payments of more than $500,000 a month. He has at lead 11 children.

This part is totally off-the-hook:

"child support payments of more than $500,000 a month"

SIX MILLION a year in child support!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yet another rags-to-riches.....to rags boxing story. I shouldn't feel bad for him but I do. Holyfield was a true warrior in the ring and provided boxing fans with countless exciting cw-hw battles and he suffers from dementia pugilistica as a result of it all...

It's a true story that's sadly going to continue through his children. Unless they are an exceptional student and have strong moral compasses, do you think an 18 yr old girl is going to be wise with her money, or is she going to take her friends out to the mall, buy ***elry, and have money mooching friends? If she runs out of money, what do you think she'll do?

If she loved her father, she wouldn't want to put him in danger by fighting prime heavyweights. Obviously the fact that Holyfield is still boxing proves something...

[Carpe Diem]

Everyone says that.

No. I'd really live a simple lifestyle. I wouldn't own a private jet, buying multiple cars, mansions, $500k-$1M worth of ***elries, ect. If you hang around with the wrong type of people[Rappers, Actors, ect], then you'd probably live that type of luxury lifestyle just to compete with them and trying to impress them. But if you choose to live a normal middle class lifestyle by having real friends around[family and friends who won't takes advantage of you financially], then you'd be fine.

Same thing will happen to Mayweather, and even faster because of his ********.

WTF? 50k a month per kid? More if some of those offspring are no longer kids. Where's Justice? Sounds bogus.
