Interesting indeed. I've seen Wlad listed at $30 million for 4 years or so now, but the number never seems to update; I'm curious to see where he's really at now.
Keep in mind it says "estimated net worth" and apart from that we don't really know how they calculated this. I actually think they just added all the guaranteed purses and deducted taxes and that's it... Obviously they spend a lot as well, and sometimes have more expenses than just taxes. But overal a decently nice list to see how much they've "earned" in their careers is.
Crazy that Foreman is number one through his grill sales. He's not the only one to make more money from a side project though - part time promoter 50 Cent made more money from 'Vitamin' water than he did rapping.
I'm not clear on how Vitali is on this list and Wlad is not? I would think Wlad has had many more big $ fights than his brother. Unless Wlad just shells out all of his money or Vitali is the majority owner of K2 where wlads wealth wouldn't have to be reported?
If Roy Jones was really worth $45m then why did he get a court order to pay $650k to the IRS (which he failed to pay) and why did he have to travel to Moscow to get out by Lebendev for a pity purse of $500k? Roy Jones must be broke and no where near even $4.5m
these websites are never right :roflatsch Stan Lee (Spiderman etc) is interviewed in this months Playboy and the internet has him listed with a 250 million net worth he said he isn't close to that or even 100 million for that matter.
I doubt that the list is up to date. Wladimir's net worth was reported $30mil at the beginning of 2012 (or even prior to the Haye fight, not sure). I guess that he doubled that by now.
Yeah it is. Ali at $50M due to the Swedes buying his name for same. No mention of Larry Holmes who almost runs easton, PA.
Wlad would easily be on that list now, i mean the Haye fight made him 25M he got 17M euro for Povetkin as well. Plus he likely makes $5m at least every fight, those figures don't update Floyd's been at that net worth for ages but since he has fought Guerrero and Canelo and it's also likely that Pac's Net Worth has gone down.
There was a thread about it shortly before he fought Lebedev. Local FL media posted a scanned document of the IRS levy placed on RJJ for $650k. You can find the thread if you use the search function.
Yeah but his net worth according to this article is 45 mil..Could be in assests..The last big pay day he had was against Joe and got 10 mall so unless he blew all his money and the real estate in Pensacola has sky rocketed I doubt he's as broke as some people make him out to be .
