Celebrity Justice
Evander's Liquid Diet

Evander Holyfield has pulled a Bill Clinton, who famously translated the word "is". Evander now says there's a difference between being "broke" and "not liquid".

"I'm not broke. I'm just not liquid," the ex-champ tells the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, insisting he didn't "blow" the hundreds of millions he scored in the ring.

His lawyers claim the 109-room mansion is no longer up for auction. Maybe he sold more of those "Real Deal" grills.

Evander made nearly $250 million from his fights over the last 24 years. And that doesn't include AFTRA scale for "Dancing."

5. Boo-Hoo. I am sure the rest of us with no way near that amount of money feel very sorry for you. He had it and blew it. Maybe it's time for a real job.

7. #1 Your the stupid ass. He did sell "Real Deal Grills." Do your homework before you open your pie hole!

8. If Evander is no longer broke, maybe he can help out Ed Mc Mahon.

9. HEY #8 WELL SAID,THESE GUYS DONT EVEN HAVE A CLUE...

10. He's right. There is a differance. Can you really consider a person to be broke after they blow through all their money, but have millions of dollars worth of property?

11. #8, do your research! They have changed what they first printed, when I guess they decided to look up what they said. It did not say real deal. so shove evanders real deal straight up your ass, until you get a clue!

Van Halen SUCKS!

14. HE IS SUCH A HO-BAG.

Posted at 2:11PM on Jun 6th 2008 by Evander is a panty sniffer

15. Uh...guys....there is nothing inconsistent about being broke (i.e., not having cash, which is the same as not being liquid) while still having other assets besides cash.
