Where did Roy Jones Jr.'s $$$ go?

It's not. He fought Max Alexendar last weekend in front of 40 people and videotaped by a random guy with a camcorder.

Ring mag hinted for many years that he lost a ton with that stupid rap label he had.

 

Where is ur dp from bud?

 

I heard he didn't even get paid his due for the Trinidad fight because Don King wanted options on him for his next fight. Since Jones wanted to be independent for the Calzaghe fight he told Don King to keep the money. Similar to recently Tito told Don King could keep the money that was owed to him from the Jones match.

 

I haven't read anything recently to suggest he's having financial difficulties, but that doesn't mean anything one way or the other. The fact is that most people in the world will suffer financially regardless of their salaries/incomes because they mismanage the money they have.

It's not how much you make, it's how much you keep - and how much flows to your bottom line into income-generating assets such as dividend producing stocks or passive income through rental real estate. The fact that most people live on one stream of income is disconcerting.

 

Would not surprise me ..King always knows how to win ..

 

Glass investment skillz? :think

 

Dan Rafael mentioned it on his Monday Scorecard on ESPN.com yesterday. It is right there for everyone to read. These fanboys that keep saying Jones his worth millions are fools. He has no money.

 

I wouldnt take Rafael's word for ****

 

he's been quite a failiure with his promotion business.

 

For many, it's tough to explain. Jones, former associates say, did everything right in the '90s. He cut a sweetheart deal with HBO -- details of which are in the Scorecard essay in this week's Sports Illustrated -- that made him one of the richest men in boxing. He rarely got involved with big promoters, instead running his own company, Square Ring, which ensured he maximized his profits. He didn't fight often on pay-per-view but when he did, he did well, accumulating 3.7 million buys that generated $178 million in revenue.
And he was a rock star. Jones routinely generated the highest ratings on HBO, which is why the network was willing to pay a premium -- and swallow plenty of mismatches -- to keep him there. Former HBO Sports president Seth Abraham tells a story of how he flew with Jones to an awards show after his win over Eric Harding in 2000 and how "everyone wanted a picture taken with Roy."
So where did it go wrong? The music industry, for starters. Jones invested millions in his label, Body Head Entertainment, only to lose it all when the company struggled. He blames music piracy for that. Jones admits that a former accountant once stole from him, and Florida tax records show Jones has had at least six million in liens against his properties. Former associates tell tales of expensive entourages ("Roy had two or three people doing the same job," says one ex-employee) and a lavish lifestyle that siphoned money away quickly.

chin checker turned bank account checker


rjj has a glass bank account

 

the more money you have the more you can spend

 

I wouldn't mind if my bank account was a dollar behind his.

 

women... that's all

 

With the HBO fights so long between them I doubt Roy makes that much per year from HBO. Mike Tyson himself answered the question....... How come you're filing bankruptsy Mike? You made $34 mil last year ?? Mike replied " Easily I spent $36mil"
