Mike Tyson | Boxer | $10 million

Mike Tyson is considered one of the best heavyweight boxers of all time. He won 19 fights via knockout and 12 of them during the first round. Apart from that, Tyson was also the youngest boxer who won a heavyweight title. Most remember Tyson as the man who bit the ear of Evander Holyfield during their rematch in 1997. He was disqualified from the match as a result, but he made a comeback in 2002 against Lennox Lewis, with Tyson losing this fight.

In 2020, Tyson and Roy Jones Jr. agreed to an exhibition boxing where the combined purse was $13 million. Tyson received a big chunk of the money, with $10 million guaranteed. This was added to his net worth for that year, now valued at $10 million. The boxer suffered financial losses before, but it appears that he is now slowly but surely recovering and won’t be needing a personal loan from anyone.
