He took home £4m from Wlad, had a box office career and still lives in a caravan.
With a surprisingly wealthy family, some property deals and tabloid exaggeration - that makes about £15m.
His career pre-Wlad was pretty much all average selling shows - he was often on undercards as well. His biggest fight was probably Chisora and it's hard to imagine he earned a million for each of those.

All the stuff about his wealth is just nudge nudge wink wink about the fact he comes from a family with a load of criminal convictions.

I think he’s got his fingers in a few pies. Means I get to see him snapchating from the titty bars fora good few more years.
If he has 7 kids to 6 different women, I can't see how he doesn't end up broke. That is a serious amount of monthly child support to 6 women - all of whom know their kid's dad is a multi-world champ and "superstar". I imagine that will be a serious drain on his finances.
Holeyfield earned $100’s millions and he went skint due to his various baby mamma’s
I don't know if this is true but a boxing mate once told me at least three of those baby mamma's (of holyfield) ended up substantially more richer than poor old evander... purely through the money he paid them

I'd sleep with Evander and raise his baby as a single parent for a $milion dollars - and I'm not even gay or a woman !
I have a sneaking admiration for women that pull it off. The Russian hooker that snared Boris Becker like that in a restaurant cupboard - sheer genius :salut: :clap:

If there's one thing gypsies are good at it's accumulating money, some of these fellas walk around with 20 grand in their back pocket.

Also most people who have these big flash supercars are actually leasing them, they never actually own them.

How would you fit that in your pocket?

Even if it was 50's you'd have 400 notes.

Either gypsies make their own trousers with special bucket sized pockets, or someone exercising a bit of poetic licence here.

One thing I've never understood, if they have so much money, why do they have such godawful houses and clothes? I've seen quite a few documentaries about wealthy gypsies, and their places look like they've been decked out in an argos range of liberace themed furniture.

There was one about that super rich gypsy bloke who owns loads of caravan sites, and his gaff was a fornicating monstrosity, it was like a psychedelic vision of heaven on earth, all weird crystal shit and black and white tiles. fornicating awful.

I mean I'm sure there are gypsies with good taste, but the wealthy ones, at least the ones that you get to hear of, have terrible stuff.

Mind you look at trump, all the money in the world, and not an iota of taste or refinement about the man. Sits eating junk food in bed with gold ceilings, and looks like an oompah loompah in a suit bought from Lidl.

A lot of wealthy people are like that, there was a fella in Formby who looked like Catweazle, wore old shitty clothes and did all his shopping in Kwiksave buying all the No Frills stuff, he had a house worth a million pounds and that was back in the early 90's fornicate knows what it's worth now.

That’s a bit of a myth mate. I’ve met many more poor travellers than genuinely loaded ones. Been on some disgusting sites, sort of places you wouldn’t let a goat live on

Mind you, it’s easy to have cash on the hip when your ‘house’ costs £10k I guess! :lol:

The younger ones thesedays are obsessed with image, much like the settled community. I know a family near me who spend fortunes hiring high end motors for three months at a time then telling everyone they own them :lol: Must be the craic for the younger lads though, driving about in Bentleys and even had a Lambo on their site the other week!

Real estate in Wimslow, Cannes, Belgium and sites in Lancaster as well as Porsches, Ferraris etc before Tyson even boxed are not nudge nudge... Neither is the £1m Peter paid back to the government.

That's right about the motors, unless you're filthy rich it makes no sense to own a car like that when you can rent them for 3 grand a month, they just depreciate so quickly and they cost an absolute fortune to run, you're looking at the best part of a hundred grand a year just on insurance. A mate of mine used to have a Hummer and it cost him a quid a mile to run.

Well.....
Supercars don’t depreciate the way that more ordinary cars do.
The Ferrari I had is worth more now than when I bought it in 2011 or 2012.
A standard 911 drops money but I had a GT3 and put 12’000 miles on it in 12 months and got back what I paid for it.

Did you buy them brand new?

Also it can depend on the type of car, a four door Ferrari for example will depreciate like a lead balloon, they ain't worth the money though. I used to have an R33 Skyline which would monster most sports cars that cost 2 or 3 times the price of the trusty Nissan. Hell even the Ninja I've got would give some a bloody nose and that only cost 12 grand brand new.

The truly wealthy people I've ever met, carry sod all cash. Cash on the hip is a wide boy trick to make it look like you're bunced.
