Last I read ODLH has made over $220 million in purses.
I forget to multiply it x2

Mike Tyson..$335,000,000 and some change..

And in 2004 DLH had

De La Hoya...He has Racked up $400,000,000+

After that I am not sure....

I do know up untill the creation of Golden Boy Productions...DLH had made a Whopping $665,000,000 off of purses and promotional items (boxing related only could not say anything about his glorious career as a singer )

Of course they have both fought since then I ust remember those numbers because they were so astonishing...and like I said it was from boxing only not outside interest?....Right or wrong I dont know but I am sure the numbers are close

Mike Tyson, has to have SPENT the most money of any fighters ever. How in the fuck do you go negative from $335,000,000 ? I don't make very much money, but I still have money to save every week. It really boggles my mind.
How you ask? Thats easy....
3 mansions
15 cars (The most expensive)
1 white tiger
5 security guards
4 Lawyers
and the biggest cash eating machine EVER Don King....
