Pretty much 50% of his earnings goes to the taxman. And being the legend he is he's chosen to pay them in ireland,  unlike bono and Co. He's done so much for this country. 

Boxing is corrupt to the core.  Did you see what happened in the Olympics with the Russian boxers being handed victorys even in matches where they were destroyed!

 

boxing is certainly one of the easiest sports to corrupt and has a lot of issues, but I personally would not label the Olympics as a good exampe of that. I am assuming you are talking about the heavy weight gold fight, it was actually a very close fight, remember Olympics is purely a points based decision, it doesn't matter that Levit was doing the most damage and certainly would have beaten him had the fight gone longer, I personally I think the russian lost but not by much.

There were a ton of rigged fights in the Olympics and no I'm not referencing yours.  Katie Taylor and Michael conlon are 2 other examples.
