    He's quite well educated from what I heard, upper middle class type upbringing, not that it made him less of a fighter.

    Mikey. He bought land and properties and owns a lot of nice cars. Also a car customization business, I think. And CBD oil.

    :lol:

    Danny I think does well, but he's only got a mansion and a barbershop to show for it.

    Yeah but he in ammies fought every one, anyone put in front of him to get chance to become even just noticed.
    He had put all his life and soul in boxing even before he turned into a pro. Every thing he had.
    Some internet calculations, I think, nothing more...... unless revenue services reports posted in etc.
    Yes. He didn't fought his mandatory in real prime Briedis. More mobile version of Briedis than Usyk had in the ring.
    Sure, so good boxer he was to not do this fight.

    Marco Antonio Barrera got his law degree and became a lawyer down in Mexico from what I hear, and when I met him a while back he seemed to be doing very well for himself.

    Erik Morales I hear lives quite well and has been appointed to a government position in Mexico that is the equivalent of director of national parks in the U.S. or some such (somebody correct me if I got that wrong).

    Juan Manuel Marquez seems to be living like a king from what I’ve read.

    If I recall correctly, didn’t Bruce Seldon have his manager invest his money in some sort of trust fund that will pay out $30K a year for the rest of his life? While that’s not going to afford you a rich lifestyle by any means, collecting an extra $30K a year on top of working whatever job he has doesn’t sound too bad to me.

    Leonard and Hagler did well. and Duran and Hearns did not. Who knows why. Hearns is one of my favorite fighters, but I don't understand how he lost it all. All those millions.

    I think Haye went bankrupt after trying to open a bunch of gyms in Dubai under his Hayemaker name. There was reports in the press at the time he'd been arrested for bouncing a check which is a crime in Dubai. That's why he most likely made a comeback, he was never fit enough to really compete again at top level he simply needed the money after the Arabs fleeced him of his millions.

    He clearly made a load of money on this comeback with the fights with Bellew doing well on PPV in the UK. But he's nowhere near as wealthy as he was. Hopefully he's more careful with his cash this time around.
