Mike Tyson: Retired In 2005
Career Earnings: $300 million*
Current Net Worth: $3 million*
After starting out in 1985, he became known as a true boxing hero for his expertise in the ring. Tyson managed to blow it all, despite earning close to $300 million over his 20-year career. In reality, for his irresponsible spending habits, Tyson is just as well known as he is for his athletic record. Tyson also plunged several million into a string of Ferrari NV supercars, among some rather crazy purchases like a white tiger. Once one of the wealthiest men in his industry, he is worth a mere $3 million now.
Peyton Manning: Retired In 2016

Peyton Manning is one of the most famous quarterbacks of all time, playing for both the Colts and the Broncos for 18 seasons. Manning has largely managed to retain his $248 million in career earnings. However, he retired in 2016, which he boosted with memorable sponsorship appearances for Papa John’s International Inc. Shortly after starting his NFL career, he also started the Peyback Foundation. This charity focused on helping disadvantaged children get the most out of life and developed a TV series called Peyton’s Places.
