Mike Tyson was earning pay cheques totaling in the tens of millions of dollars during the height of his boxing career.

Before squandering it all and filing for bankruptcy in early 2003, ruthless “Iron Mike,” who destroyed everything in his path in the 1980s and early 1990s, was rumored to have built a fortune of £200 million from the sport.Prior to being heavily indebted, he was amassing an enormous collection of cars in addition to owning amazing residences and controlling a cannabis empire.

Over the years, Tyson, who made a comeback to the ring against Roy Jones Jr., has amassed a collection of some of the most expensive cars in the world.

And once, fearing arrest with his ex-wife Robin Givens, he even bought a Bentley from a policeman.

He liked luxury car brands like Rolls-Royce, Ferrari, and McLaren; eventually, he had to auction them off to raise money to pay the tax collector.

America’s most preferred limousineIn 1985, at the age of eighteen, Tyson started his assault on the heavyweight class and became well-known in the ring.

At that point, he had won 19 fights (all by knockout), and he had purchased a chic Cadillac Eldorado.

More money came in, and shortly after the death of veteran trainer Cus D’Amato, he treated himself to a Cadillac Seville.

These old motors would still be worth a few thousand pounds if Tyson had maintained them. On the market now, some in good condition can fetch up to £20,000.LOVE IN ROLLS-ROYCEA Rolls-Royce is synonymous with luxury.

Thus, after Mike defeated James Smith to win the WBA title in 1986, he went straight into a garage in Manhattan and asked a salesperson for the keys.

Jim Jacobs, his manager, had different ideas, whispering in his ear to hold off until he was 21.

On the day of his historic birthday, Tyson returned and paid approximately £110,000 for a blue Rolls-Royce Silver Spur.

Then in 1987, following his destruction of Tony Tucker and the addition of the IBF belt to his midsection, he purchased a £150,000 Rolls-Royce Corniche.Don KingWith the ‘Golden Child’ of boxing on his list, promoter Don King was keen to maintain his charming disposition.

In 1988, he gave Tyson TWO automobiles as a thank you for his client’s hard work in becoming the world’s most feared fighter.

King also acquired a about £165k black Rolls-Royce stretch limousine to his collection.

He gave Tyson another Corniche as well.

Tyson, who was 22 years old, had four Rolls-Royces in his garage that were valued at more than $500,000.TUPAC, MERCEDES-BENZAs the 1980s gave way to the 1990s, Tyson made connections in the entertainment industry, went to lavish parties in Hollywood, and relished his newfound notoriety as the “baddest man on the planet.”

His second impulse purchase was inspired by one of those friends, Tupac Shakur.

Tyson reportedly tossed cash at a white 1989 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class 560SL because of the rapper, who apparently had one.

A few months later, in 1990, Tyson’s world fell apart with a shocking defeat to James “Buster” Douglas in Japan, which shocked everyone.

However, he found solace in a 1990 Mercedes Benz 500 SL that had a mobile phone installed inside, the must-have device of the day.
