    DLH is hands down the richest boxer today, he is the highest paid non heavyweight ever, and also he's making quite a bit on the promoting alone

    Out of fighters that have fought recently I'd say, ODLH by far makes the most out of any fighter right now (he'll get like 15 Million for 12 rounds), PBF, Mosley, Trinidad (recently retired), Gatti makes a ton on the boardwalk, Tszyu, Hatton, JoeCal make a bit too. If Lennox came back he'd make $20-$30 Million a fight.

    The wealthiest boxer of all time is Evander Holyfield. Currently worth almost 500 million.. And he still want's to fight. truly depressing.

    I believe actually its Tyson who has made more money than any other athlete has ever through sport profits alone.

    Without sponsors I believe that is correct, but Mike has basically blown all of his money.

    Yes Tyson has EARNED the most of any athlete through just the means of sport.. by a considerable amount. But he never hung onto his money, not at all.. So he was never worth nearly as much as Evander at one time.. Well maybe at some point he had somewhere close to the money Evander does now, but still not as much. Holyfield is actually the guiness record holder for wealthiest boxer... That's all I know. Roy Jones would have to be way up there as well, don't know where.

    I think this figure may be slightly exaggerated, as there is no way in hell Evander has amassed a half a billion dollars. Possibly with endorsements and good investments, I'd say maybe $200 mil tops.

    Check it out. 450 was the figure.. Hey Mike Tyson has earned over 300 million JUST boxing If Holyfield made anywhere near that, plus had endoresments(which he did) and make good investments(also has).. Its not that hard to believe. Money makes money, if you can just resist the temptation to spend it all. apparently HOlyfield has also had alot of religious groups contribute to him during his peak because he was such an evangelical christian.. But I don't know how much truth there is to that and I suspect it hurt him when people found out he regularily commited adultery and had illegitimate children

    Evander is in Guinness for the total gross of his fights, which is over $500 million, not his net worth. And when Tyson filed for bankrupcy it was said that the $300 million squandered was an exagerration, as it was closer to $200 million. George Foreman with his grill has more money than Evander and even he doesn't have $500 million.

    I really don't think RJJ has made that much as a boxer. I wonder how much he got for the Tarver fights.

    Why don't we remember Rick James for classic hits? Why do we remember Rick for smacking a Biotch!?

    lol tell me the name of this song, I remember hearing that line and it cracked me up, Common used to be the shit as well but I hate his new style.. Electric Circus was the last good work he did, years ago now.
