In addition, he asserted that this jealousy was also ignited as he became a billionaire at a relatively young age.

Great people like Warren Buffet, when they get money, their 50s-60s, 80s, and even 90s it’s okay. I was able to leave boxing, on my own terms. To keep all my factories, kept a lot of money. So they are upset that I’m able to go out there and make 40-60 Million.”
