Who are the Richest Boxers (today) not just overall earnings.
Top 10 Richest Boxers In 2014 | Rich Income Ways
Tyson listed at the top (400) mil.
Forman @ 250 (mil)
DLH, then MoneyMay-
Is there a list that states fighters who are (STILL) rich? RJJ is listed here. So I question: If Tyson-as broke as he is- makes the list, then it doesn't mean all of these fighters are (STILL) wealthy.
This link:
Roy Jones Jr net worth! – How rich is Roy Jones Jr?
Estimates RJJ at 45 million. But does he really have millions in the bank? I am one of those who thought that RJJ was still fighting because of bad investments he made-like with a rap label that produced jack.
Sep 2008- stock market- he took a hit there too (side note -Hopkins didn't)

I wonder where is Lennox Lewis or either Klitschko is ranked. Mundine in ranked.
I thought Larry Holmes who is frugile and made wise investments would've topped these lists- but surprisingly as of today he is listed at 18 million. I guess considered that he was under Don King- that shit is amazing to come out in the green!!
What about Ricky Hatton? Tito Trinidad?
Re: Who are the Richest Boxers (today) not just overall earnings.
Foreman would be worth a mention, as would Hamed.
Re: Who are the Richest Boxers (today) not just overall earnings.
Those stats are all wrong.
Tyson is estimated to have earned $400 million over his career in the ring but was forced to declare bankruptcy with $23 million in debt in 2003. He couldn't possibly have made it all back since then.
Forbes lists Mayweather as having made $300 million last year alone.
According to the newspaper El Nuevo Dia (in an article published in 2014), Trinidad is broke having squandered his $63 million investing in Peurto Rican government bonds which were recently downgraded to junk bond status. Whoops!

Do you have about everything? lol
Re: Who are the Richest Boxers (today) not just overall earnings.
Rocco is right though, that list is overall earnings and not today, only way it makes sense.
Floyd and Foreman are the top 1 and 2 almost for sure, from the last I read. Foreman of course has made most of his current money from his grills, so good for him. DLH would be a clear third, and next is probably Pacquiao, then anyone's guess. So few fighters hang on to their money, could well be Roy Jones in 4th.
Larry Holmes is a rare case who has apparently done well and invested wisely since retiring. Never made nearly what those guys did as a pro but he's still wealthy at least.

That's correct and Foreman didn't even invent the thing. Leonard was the first 100 million dollar fighter and even with his coke binges he was one of the rare prize fighters that new it wouldn't last.
I believe Floyd has probably made some wise investments outside of his Rolex and car collections.
He's generated close to 1 billion in ppv with Oscar and Manny being not that far behind. He had personally made close to 1/2 a billion after the second Maidana fight. The incredible thing about him is that he did it with endorsing a thing.
You have to wonder wtf happened to Tyson? He was generating 40 million a fight for an average 6 to 9 minutes of work. Parasites and clingons with no idea what he was paying out and then of course Don King who probably has more money buried then all of these guys lol.
And Holyfield, my christ! The guy made 200 million in 3 years and is now broke. I'm sure the 6 kids with 6 different mothers didnt help and houses with 26 bathrooms and once again King but if I had a million dollars in the bank I'd never worry about anything. Ffs I'd live off the interest.
Hattons worth about 50 mil
Same with Hagler. He most likely made more money doing Spaghetti westerns in Italy then he ever did in boxing.
Ali listed at 50 mil is a little crazy. Maybe his personal worth but all of those foundations etc etc etc. He's a great example of ones "net worth" not telling the whole story.
Vitali was said to be worth 65 mil last year
Leonard 120
Lewis 140
Re: Who are the Richest Boxers (today) not just overall earnings.
Whoever is the smartest with their investment and tightest with their money is the richest and I would have to say Lennox Lewis living in Jamaica smoking his spliff. :rasta:
Re: Who are the Richest Boxers (today) not just overall earnings.
That list is rubbish. And the writer's English is poor.

Re: Who are the Richest Boxers (today) not just overall earnings.
Can someone break down what fighters actually get after tax and all expenses say a fighter gets payed 10 million what will he actually end up with ?
Re: Who are the Richest Boxers (today) not just overall earnings.
Holyfield was promoting a sauce in one of Tysons tv programmes.
Re: Who are the Richest Boxers (today) not just overall earnings.
Those figures are based on what they earned in their careers. But as we've seen, it's not what you earn... it's what you save. Saving and investing isn't something boxers are generally good at, although there have been a few exceptions. Foreman has done great with the Foreman Grill and all the commercial work he did.
There seem to be very few happy endings in boxing. Either guys end up brain dead, broke, or both.
Re: Who are the Richest Boxers (today) not just overall earnings.
If Floyd goes broke and makes a comeback in 10 years he deserves the biggest slap in the face for being the dumbest ever.
Re: Who are the Richest Boxers (today) not just overall earnings.
What you mean to say, who has saved the most money, or who has the greatest net worth ?
* Floyd Mayweather
* Manny Pacquiao
* George Foreman
* Rhonda Rousey {Female}
