Evander Holyfield Finalizes His Divorce
Former heavyweight champion Evander Holyfield is finally getting a divorce from his wife, Candi Holyfield. The divorce has been finalized, and comes in the middle of very serious financial problems for the fighter. Evander has declared bankruptcy this year, had his mansion foreclosed upon and even sold his Olympic medal.
Candi filed for divorce in 2010 after putting out a restraining order on her husband. She claimed that he hit her in the head, neck and back during a domestic dispute.
According to Candi, the alleged abuse was part of an on-going theme inside the marriage.
“In 2008 he choked me in front of our daughter and house keeper. In 2009 he has hit me in front of the children. He has grabbed me in front of the children. A couple of weeks ago he threw a bottle of water at me,” she said.
Maybe now, Evander can get the rest of his life together and try to get out of financial trouble. If George Foreman can make a comeback, so can he.
Can we talk about something good that black men are doing? Why is it all about airing dirty laundry..
A sad ending for a guy who had it all and let it get away!! Maybe now his ego and headwill be a little smaller!! Sad,sad!!

Something is major wrong with all these celebrities going broke or owing the irs.. A lesson needs to be learned here
It is 86 days to the election…Let’s talk about the election and Paul Ryan and what he and Romney have in store for Americans if elected: Mitt Romney pandered to the extreme right and announced Paul Ryan as his pick for vice president this morning, guaranteeing that this election will be about tax cuts, Medicare, and the economy.
Ryan is a rock star for Republicans, the lead architect of the radical right-wing budget that Republicans are pushing in Congress. A budget that calls for:
Huge new tax cuts for the super-rich on top of extending the Bush tax cuts
Turning Medicare into a voucher program
Making massive cuts to vital programs like Medicaid, food stamps, Pell Grants, and job training
New increases in military spending — even as President Obama ends two wars
Let me put this as simply as I can: Paul Ryan is the author of everything we’ve been fighting against in Washington since Republicans took control of the House — and now Mitt Romney wants him to be vice president.
All I can say Is It’s praying time
Maybe its too late for Holyfield to get back in the ring,however he could become a Big Time Boxing Promoter or even work with the Younger Generation through Boxing Camps. On the flip side,Holyfield should seriously seek financial education from experts like Susie Orman, or other Top Black Financial Advisors Immediately.
