    According to the Sunday Times Rich List as of May 2012, Lennox Lewis' net worth is $150 million+ and owns property in Hertfordshire, Jamaica and Florida.

    Other boxers from Lewis' era including Evander Holyfield and Mike Tyson apparently have lost most of their money and filed for bankruptcy protection. Both are worth $1 million respectively, estimated.

    Why doesn't he have property in his home country England, is he too good to live there or something?

    Worth $15 million back at the time of his retirement in 1996, nowadays Riddick Bowe can be seen signing boxing gloves for $65 in a parking lot at a flea market in New Jersey.

    Sad. Riddick wasn't a bad guy.

    Riddick Bowe still has most of his health I've heard. It's too bad he didn't make the most of his prime. Opportunities were there for him.

    He slurs a little bit but it's not as bad as everyone thought it was going to be post-Golota.

    It really is too bad. He should have wound up comfortably retired with millions in the bank. If he had unified with Lennox, it would have been great for boxing and great for his pocketbook---better than fighting Dokes and Ferguson anyways.

    It's a good thing that Billy Zumbrun guy couldn't punch because Riddick was getting battered by that guy as well.

    He seems to be doing much better for himself though than Tyson, Holyfield and Bowe. Took much better care of his money while the other guys squandered their earnings.
    Lewis would be a better role model for athletes than those other 3 guys IMO. You can still live a good happy life without all the drugs and sh*t.

    Should've crushed Holyfield twice, crushed Tyson easily and would've crushed Bowe, no problem.

    Lewis is too much of a boring, useless faggot to spend any of his money.

    What a cunt.
