Will PBF end up broke?

Is it true what they say? That you don't run into many dumb rich people?

 

Yes he will. He is absolutely stupid with his money. He is Tyson 2.0

 

Please vote accordingly. I fcked up the first post - but there's a poll now. Please vote.

 

if he ever needs money he can always move to ohio and deal smack

 

I rarely wish ill on people but I hope he does. It'd be good for his soul.

 

If he Locates his CAJONES & Fights Pacquiao, then Probably Not...It's Hard to Spend THAT Much Money...But if Floyd Continues Down this Path of Pussification, he Probably WILL End Up Broke...

It ALL Rests on Whether or Not he Fights Pacquiao...


REED:dancingBaby:

 

Biggie said "Mo' money, mo' problems." Everytime Floyd has had a major cash influx within a year he's had major tax issues.

Nothing will change except the size of his debt.

 

I think he will.

For openers, he never earned all that much in the first place.

 

it's possible...but news to Double L and the rest of the forum

Millionaire Black Athlete doesn't necessarily equal broke at the end of life.

 

Two words: Paris Hilton.

 

News to Slystaff - If Millionaire Black Athlete necessarily equaled broke at the end of life, we wouldn't need a poll, would we?

 

I thought we're talking about people who actually worked for their money and made it big. Not heirs and heiresses who had it made because of their parents.

 

Are Lennox Lewis, George Foreman and Larry Holmes the only 3 retired boxers who aren't struggling financially? Are there any more?

 

Muhammad Ali, Ray Leonard, Hagler..the list continues

 

Yeah, I saw him down the BMW dealership only yesterday.:Lok::Lok::Lok:

 

He's not in debt.

 

How about the don't give a fuck option. I mean he earned the money it's his to do whatever the fuck he wants with it. Why so many people are concerned with his spending kills me! I'll Holla 5000

 

He will be again.

Golden Boy fronted him nearly $7 million before the Marquez fight. the IRS was ready to show after the fight to garnish his check. Golden Boy paid off the debt a few days before the fight.

With that said...

At the time, Floyd owed millions to vegas jewelers...owed millions to vegas casinos.

Could he have paid them off with proceeds from the last couple fights...certainly.

is it reasonable to think he'd wind up in the same spot again? Absolutely. he's had tax liens against him every year dating back to 2003.

Smart money says he'll be in debt again...not if....when.

 

Dela Seems to B Doing Pretty Good for Himself, Wouldn't U Say???...



REED:Lok:

 

DLH is still involved with boxing though as a promoter and he actually hasn't officially retired yet. I meant retired as in gone away from boxing completely and doing something unrelated with their lives.

 

Not Yet...

U're DEFENDING Floyd's Financial Affairs like your Last Name is "Ellerbe", or Something...Next, U'll Tell REED that Golden Boy Promotions DIDN'T Pay Off Floyd's PREVIOUS Debt...



REED:hammert:

 

Dela AIN'T Fighting Anymore, Hanz...He IS Retired...

So Basically, your Point is Only Valid if a Fighter DIVORCES Himself from the Sport of Boxing???...



REED:hammert:

 

No no...not at all. I just wanted to know the amount/stats of boxers who were able to live off their hard-earned riches once they moved on with their lives outside of boxing. I guess they can still be involved in some capacity. Just wanted to know which boxers have kept their money. Although bigdawg will tell me "Ain't nobody's business!" :Giggle:

 

"You know I keeps a private jet!"

 

News to Double L - I'm not likely to see the same topic regarding Kelly Pavlik.

 

Floyd just got $50,000 iPod

It's a good point you make. For me, the discussion is interesting only in that I myself am fairly sure he will end up broke, and for me, as a boxing fan, I take comfort in that.

 

Oh, because he's white? Give it up. The guy gambles every day, spends money like he's royalty, and carries thousands of dollars in cash around, and you want to put this on his race? Get real.

 

Since when the hell were Ipods costing 50K???? Anyway, another step in the right direction for Money May! :crafty: 5 years tops!

 

If anyone deserves to be broke and humbled it's Man Child Floyd Mayweather.
