I've seen Ryabinsky referred to as a billionaire by many sources and I believe he was the financial muscle behind the $23 million bid for Klitschko-Povetkin, so I suspect that he's the richest overall of the names you list.

The info out there on Al suggests his net worth is like $15M which seems way off to me with all his success in the music world in various avenues so I can't take that number seriously, so I'd expect him to be up in the top two with Ryabinsky.

I think Al could be so powerful he can actually get high level misinfo out about himself like he's only worth $15M. And all the mfers who don't wanna talk bad about him that are in high power situations themselves is f#cking creepy too. Or maybe he does actually only have $15M cuz he's some Wizard of Oz behind the scenes altruistic type mfer or something for his homies.

Isn't the Korean chap at the top of AIBA worth a fornicating fortune?

Dr Wu Ching-kuo

He might not be Korean but he's loaded by all accounts and is one of the most powerful men in sport.

Michael Buffer is worth 400 millions, which is more than everyone mentioned, except for the billionaires Ryabinsky and Wu Ching-kuo.

Wu is from Taiwan and is a high level IOC member besides being the President of AIBA. They say he is a billionaire.

That seems like a lowball figure for Haymon's net worth to me too, but the thing about Al's relative power in boxing is that he's not playing with his money, but rather with Waddell and Reed's, which has somewhere in the ballpark of $258 billion in assets under management.

I allways thought George Foreman was a kind of rich, next to Floyd. Ryabinski is also rich, but up to what point is he a boxer? Many promotors are rich.

I think Don King is a billionaire as well.

Haymon obviously has connection but the guy doesn't even do interviews so who knows how much he has under the mattress. Nothing like a billion though imo or he would have invested his own funds in PBC to collect the pay off himself (hes such a crook though he probably new it would bomb so could have the funds himself but chose to waste other people's).

On the point about Buffer....i have heard this story a few times of him trademarking hus phrase and has made over 400m... i'll believe that when i see hard proof tbh.

Floyd. He makes it rain. He walks into a strip joint and strippers are elated like theyve won lotto. Apparently he just flicks $$ to them and then he leaves with 1 or more and leaves the dollar bills on the floor for strippers to pick up as soon as leaves.

haymon isnt that rich....he needs other rich people to get to the big money. raybinski is a billionere who needs nobody, he puts the money up and the money he puts up is his, not begged from others.

Riabinski use Rosneft=Kremlin money, at least that's what he did(and admitted) in case of Klitchko purse bid overpay(23M!!!). I read in russian sites that in Wilder purse bid also Rosneft/Kremlin money was in...

Nobody knows, asking Google...


Al Haymon: 15 million
Oscar de la Hoya: 150 to 200 million
Bob Arum: 200 to 250 million
Don King: 200 to 300 million
Floyd Mayweather: 250 to 400 million
Andrey Ryabinsky: 1000+ million

I can't believe people picked Mayweather. :shame: Ryabsinky is a legit money man. Dude is crazy wealthy. He could buy Mayweather and still have tons left over. :TU:

Gaymon isn't that rich. Dude isn't playing with his own money, and he's running a cut-and-run scam. He's pretty much paying himself, and he'll exit out of the scene.

If that's dollars they are all Billionaires in the USA, apart from Haymen and he is just a poverty stricken millionaire I would have thought he is worth more than that though? It's hard to compete with Andrey Ryabinsky: 1000+ million dodgy pudendum.

I'm sure that Ryabinsky could make it rain even harder at strip clubs if he wanted to.

Bob Arum is the richest.

Andrey Ryabinsky isn't poor, but he's not as wealthy as many people believe. Al Haymon had very rich backers, but he lost most of their money. De La Hoya lost a lot of his money through blackmail and people taking advantage of him. Don King has money, but isn't among the richest nowadays.

Floyd made a bundle of money and is no doubt in the top 2 or 3.
