    ...its not like it would be that hard to prove.


    Tyson for exaample has claimed bankruptcy more than once. Dont ever remember Roy doing that.

    Let me guess in your world Riddick Bowe still has 20 million and Holyfield is worth 250 million? :lol::rofl:patsch

    From what I have read over the last few years he dumped alot of money into his record label and made some very poor financial decisions.

    One example of his poor financial decisions for the people in here that think he's loaded: he didn't make a single penny for the Bhop Rematch. It's sad because he was my favorite fighter. Should have retired a long time ago.

    If he had to leave this place you think you'd have heard about it.

    Unlike Holyfield, Roy Jones doesnt have 11 kids by multiple different women.

    And Bowe never made money like Jones.

    Yes, I am serious.

    Outside of the Holyfield fight, and maybe the Golta ones where did he make his big money?

    Im pretty sure most people would agree with me when I say Jones made much more money than Bowe throughout his career.

    Jones didnt have largescale legal issues and mental issues like Bowe.

    I thin saying Bowe never made the kinda money Jones is pretty much common sense.

    Anyway, I dont see all this as that big of a deal. You've shown me nothing to indicate Jones is broke,so until you do, Ill just assume you're talking ****.

    Cocaine, Khazar accountants, liquor and US taxes (at least 40% here).

    Jones is not too financially stable.

    People who dont know him say hes broke, but Ive never heard anyone who actually knows the man say that he is broke. I dont believe heis broke or NEEDS to fight. there are plenty of other options. My guess is he wants a cruiserweight belt and still loves to fight, delusional or not, that is more than likely why he carries on.

    Didn't he make 10 mil fighting Joe Calzaghe and the Trinidad fight did over 500 k in PPV so not sure how broke he is but he has made some decent money in the last couple of yrs ..
