The Boxing Legends Who Are Also Million-Dollar Heavyweights

Bernard Hopkins: $40 Million

Bernard Hopkins found his passion for boxing while serving a prison sentence as a teenager. Upon his release, he turned pro and became one of the most dominant middleweights of the 1990s and early 2000s.

Bernard recorded 20 title defenses between 1994 and 2005 and became the first male boxer to hold the WBA, WBC, IBF, and WBO titles simultaneously. Known as “The Executioner,” he made history in 2011 by becoming the oldest champion at 46 after defeating Jean Pascal. This legend’s determination and longevity in the sport have earned him $40 million.
