There were also three marriages with one divorce setting him back $9 Million alone, there have been eight children and he spent time behind bars which come with some mighty expensive legal fees. So it can’t come as much of a surprise to learn that by 2003, after having a blockbuster career as a prizefighter that Iron Mike Tyson was filing for Bankruptcy. At the peak of his powers, Mike was looking at a Net Worth of around $300 Million. Today, that number is widely reported to be closer to $3 Million dollars.
