Newz Forum: BOXING: Judge to decide champ's financial reorganization

Antonio Tarver made quick work of Roy Jones Jr. on Saturday night, but a tougher battle is expected to await Tarver in bankruptcy court. Eight days before his second-round knockout of Jones, the 35-year-old Tarver filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in Tampa, Fla., listing 19 creditors owed about $895,000.

Although Tarver took home a payday of $2.2 million Saturday, it doesn't necessarily mean that the money will be used to pay off his four main creditors -- the Internal Revenue Service (owed $367,000), Star Boxing ($228,087), John Morgan ($150,000) and Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino ($60,000).
I find it interesting that he owes montgomery Ward $77. I thought the chain went belly-up!
