    Larry Holmes invested well. George Foreman seems to be doing extremely well.

    I think Max Schmeling first had some monetary problems, but made a fortune with the soda endorsement.

    George Foreman.
    Oscar de la Hoya will most definately be the top once he retires.
    Mickey Ward
    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

    I read an article some years back about Michael Spinks dividing his money up and placing them into timed accounts. This way he would never blow all his money. If he did all he would have to do is wait a few years for more.

    He also invested in some business and real estate. Nothing major but well enough to make some money and keep a fairly nice lifestyle.

    Marvin Hagler took his money over to Italy where he is a big celeberty and invested in Real estate there as well as does acting in Italian movies

    Not really sure....it's sadly only news when they blow it all. One of the mayweathers i belive has no access to all his cash and gives himself a yearly allowance so he doesn't blow it all. Not sure which one but that's pretty smart to reckonize you have it in you to blow that much..

    I wondered why Leon Spinks was still working as a janitor with a multi-millionaire brother.

    Hagler took all his money to Paris now that was smart. He porbably doubled his money out there at that time.

    Tszyu seems to be doing well.

    Naz won't be in any financial trouble soon.

    I know Pintor house in Mexico is huge and he also has a gym he runs.

    Eubank must be doing well if he's got money to fill up his truck.

    Vitaly, Wlad, Cotto, DPDL all have begun investing money wisely.
    The Klits are promoters so is Cotto.
    DPDL owns a restaurant out here in LA.
    Margaritos is a promoter also.
    I'm sure Joe Calzaghes smart about his money.
    Bernard is GBP-East.
    RJJs made some great investments
    PBF of course.
