Paying for trainers and doctors to ensure you get the best trainig is one thing. But these sports figures think they have to look out for everyone and their mama in their entourage which winds up with them broke at the end of the day. It's happened to so many people that you would think that more cats would take heed and save those dollars they earn when they are in their prime. A great sports star may perform at the top of his game from 21 to about 33/35 after that he still has another 30 or 40 years to live and has to think about not having future income when they retire. None of these cats who make tens of millions of dollars should ever wind up broke. But sadly they do and that's why a lot of them like Roy end up still playing/fighting even when they are years past their best.

I am not sure they wanted his money this time. His lawyer is John Wirt he's the same lawyer that Don King used to get him out of tax invasion.

Roy Jones Jr. Financial Issues Explained By Promoter

By Vadim Pushkin

Russian promoter Vladimir Hryunov explained the financial struggles of former four division world champion Roy Jones Jr.

A few days ago, BoxingScene.com reported some details being discussed overseas, which claim the 46-year-old veteran is facing a tax bill of $3 million in the United States.

Hryunov, as part of his working relationship with Jones, took over the tax obligations - which clears Jones from personally owing any of the money.

Jones became a Russian citizen in September. Earlier this month he was brutally knocked out in four rounds by former WBO cruiserweight champion Enzo Maccarinelli.

"When Roy decided to take Russian citizenship, it became clear that he was facing big tax problems. On September 10 of this year, I flew to the United States, in his hometown of Pensacola, to meet with his lawyer John Wirt. There I signed a letter on his behalf, which guarantees to pay $ 3 million for the debts of Russian citizen Roy Jones, as well as taking care of all of his tax obligations," Hryunov explained to Life Times."

"And this is not an obligation personally to Roy, namely to its creditors. To date, I have paid $1 million. This is a very serious circumstance. Before anyone spreads any rumors, I have stayed in this commitment. After that, he began to live safely and freely. But before that there were constant reminders from collectors who were searching for additional earnings."

Hryunov says Jones made a lot of money during his career, but the majority of his funds were used on business ventures which failed.

"Roy Jones in his time received tens of millions of dollars. He put the money in businesses. A large number of real estate ventures and misallocation of payments led to serious problems. In America, it happens. For example, he spent a lot of money to open his own music studio, but a profitable business did not happen," Hryunov said.

I thought he was cool with J Prince. He had to go all the way to Russia to get bailed out?
