I feel really bad for Holyfield...he's broke and has to still box at 50 yrs old. His house was auctioned for a fraction of what he paid and owes on it with some of the proceeds going to pay off the IRS for back taxes. He extended his boxing career in his 40's trying to live a lifestyle that he couldn't afford and now has run out of years with nothing saved. Had he walked away from the house a decade ago he could have retired with enough money to live a modest and comfortable retirement because he actually made some decent money in his 40's...but he refused to give up the mansion. He's a stubborn old man which is what made him such a great boxer.
