Former heavyweight champ Roy Jones Jr. is the latest boxer to take a pounding from the IRS. After it was recently revealed that Floyd Mayweather Jr. was hit with a past due tax bill of nearly $3.4 million, former four division champion Roy Jones Jr. has been hit with an even bigger bill for $3.5 million dollars. The Detroit News reports that the IRS filed a $629,085 lien against Jones on March 21 with the Santa Rosa County Clerk in Florida. Those taxes are owed from 2009, but there is also another lien, which was filed on February 11, 2008 for $2,946,650 in Santa Rosa County. That bill is for Jones' earnings in 2003 and 2004. Jones returns on May 22 in Moscow against dangerous cruiserweight Denis Lebedev.Comment

Did Floyd pay his tax bill , yea the same one mentioned in the article? So knowing for fact that Floyd always had the money to pay that tax, why do you suppose he was hit with that tax bill? The truth is that its a lot of money to give up at once and it's clear some fighters simply don't feel they are obligated to pay tax for one reason or another.Comment

Are you sure about that? There can be no other reason for a fighter of Roy's caliber to continue fighting bums and cab drivers unless it's for the money.
None of these fights add to Roy's legacy and he has no chance in hell fighting any of the elite fighters at light heavyweight or cruiserweight.
Roy may not be as broke as Tarver but he can't be far from it otherwise he would have just hung up the gloves permanently. Boxing needs a pension badly.Comment
