Child support rears its ugly head again for Evander Holyfield:

46-year-old Evander Holyfield is trying to get back into the ring for a final payday, and maybe this is why — he’s got to pay thousands in child support or face jail time. That’s the knockout punch his baby mama, Toi Irvin, could deliver next week when the ex-champ goes into court to explain why he hasn’t paid up like he was ordered to on September. 1. Irvin’s lawyer, Randy Kessler, says he’s going to make him pay for the ex-couple’s 11-year-old kid — or ask the judge to toss him into the clink. Holyfield made a reported $248 million during his career but has been less than liquid — so he says — of late.

All that paper, and nothing to show for it but a gang of debt and illegitimate children to pay for…This baby’s mom has been threatening to lock his ass up since July, Evander better cough up that dough.

Madea’s alter ego, Tyler Perry, just made Oprah cry by becoming the first African-American person in history to own a major TV and film studio.

History was made Saturday night, when Tyler Perry became the first African-American ever to launch his own major TV and film studio. [...]A New Orleans native with a troubled childhood, Perry, 39, credited all of his guests with inspiring his life. Of Winfrey, who attended the celebration with longtime beau Stedman Graham and best friend Gayle King, Perry said, “She owns her life. I am learning that. I never would have shown this to people a few years ago. I was embarrassed by the success.” At one point, Perry unveiled a special surprise for veteran trailblazers Poitier, Dee and Tyson: each now has a soundstage named after him and her. “Is this my wall?” joked Poitier – as Winfrey dissolved into tears.

Say what you want about Madea being a minstrel act, but Tyler Perry’s got them Hollyweird folk eating out of palm of his hands.

Evander Holyfield spared himself from getting sent to the pen:

Former heavyweight champion Evander Holyfield has reached agreement in a child-support case, avoiding a court hearing that could have led to a call for jail time. Randy Kessler, attorney for the mother of Holyfield’s 10-year-old son, said Wednesday the boxer paid $9,000 in back child support and agreed to meet his other financial obligations within a month, including private school payments, health insurance and a college trust fund.

Holyfield, working to resolve his financial problems, also agreed to pay some of the attorney fees for Kessler’s client, Toi Irvin. The agreement was reached before a scheduled deposition and two days before a court hearing, at which Kessler was planning to ask for jail time if Holyfield didn’t pay up.

It’s about time he scraped up the dough to handle his responsibilities. Damn that dead beat nonsense.

Holyfield is still holding out on the child support payments:

According to court documents the boxer hasn’t paid child support for his 10-year-old son Evan in three months! Holyfield’s baby Mama, Toi Jenese Irvin, is demanding Holyfield either pay his $9000 debt in full — or go straight to [jail]. Irvin also says Holyfield dropped their son’s health insurance — something he’s required to do by a judge.

SMH in particular about Evander dropping his son’s health insurance. He better auction some more shyte off and pony up the bread before he finds himself in the clink. Triflin ass.

Former Heavyweight champ Evander Holyfield’s cash situation is jacked-the-hell-up:

“[Holyfield's] Fayette County estate is under foreclosure. The home worth an estimated $10 million is set to be auctioned by a bank on July 1.

The mother of one of Holyfield’s nine children says he has missed two child-support payments. Toi Irvin, who lives in Clayton County, filed a petition for contempt in Fayette County Superior Court on behalf of her 10-year-old son (totaling $6,000).”

It’s time for Holyfield to man up and pay his baby-mama what’s due. That’s what happens when you spread your seed all over the damned place – handle your business. SMH.

More in foreclosure news:

Rickety-ass Ed McMahon is about to get locked out of his crib too:

“Ed McMahon may now lose his Beverly Hills home to foreclosure because he owes approximately $644,000 in payments on a nearly $5 million mortgage loan. Added to that fiscal fiasco is that American Express obtained a judgment against McMahon for just about $750,000 in unpaid bills, and a Washington-based company named Hix Inc. claimed he failed to repay a loan of $135,000. All tallied, McMahon, who earned millions over his 50-year career, is in debt for nearly $1.5 million.”

Heeeeeere’s a broke-ass!! His peoples are probably pissed the f**k off ’cause they know they ain’t gettin’ broke off when he belly-ups – they’ll be paying his debt off, with interest. Tragic.
