    Mike Tyson’s stunning houses through his career, from 21-bed Connecticut mansion to Ohio home which is now a church

    THROUGHOUT the years, as Mike Tyson rose through the ranks to become heavyweight champion of the world, the boxing legend bought and sold some stunning homes.
    ‘Iron Mike’ came a long way from the humble beginnings of his childhood home in Brooklyn to mansions filled with tiger cages as millions of dollars poured in.

    Mike Tyson has lived in the most amazing homes dotted all over America

    After losing it all, Tyson, now 54, is once again worth millions after launching his company Tyson Holistic and flogging medical marijuana.
    And he’s even in line for a comeback – the knockout king is set to face Roy Jones Jr in an exhibition fight on November 28.
    But it’s his former homes that really amaze and show how the king of the ring loved living.
    NEW YORK
    Tyson spent most of his childhood years in a modest apartment in Brooklyn in Brownsville in the mid 1970s.

    It was a neighbourhood, at the time, that was a breeding ground for crime and most residents lived poorly.
    In the past, Tyson has admitted mixing with criminals as he looked for acceptance and joined a gang of petty thieves.
    But in his spare-time in the Brownsville abode, he became fascinated by pigeons.

    Today, apartments in the area can fetch up to £500,000.
    OHIO
    Tyson’s fall from grace began in 1992, when he was convicted of rape and was sentenced to six years in prison, of which he served three.
    Financially drained, he was forced to sell this incredible home in 1999 for around £855,000.
    Today, remarkably, it’s been converted into a church.
    But in Tyson’s day it boasted five bedrooms and a full-size pool and Jacuzzi alongside its tiger cages and basketball court, with the entire pad decked out with crystal chandeliers.
    The delipidated pool has since been turned into a sanctuary while the living room is now a gathering place.
    Remnants of the 53-year-old’s time still remain with the basketball court still intact, as well as Mike Tyson’s name etched onto the front gate.

    And the tall steel cages where Tyson kept his famous four tigers have been dismantled for a pavilion.
    CONNECTICUT
    In 2003, Tyson was declared bankrupt.
    That meant he had to sell up again – and a 52-room mansion in Connecticut he used to live in was eventually bought by rapper 50 Cent for £3.3million.
    Boasting 21 bedrooms, as well as its own nightclub the property is as lavish as Tyson has ever owned.
    The 50,000-square-foot property also has 25 bathrooms, an indoor pool and hot tub, an indoor basketball court, multiple game rooms, a green-screen room, and a recording studio.
    And the opulence doesn’t end there.
    Entering the property through a stately front gate, you’re greeted by a lion statue.
    However, the running costs – believed to be around £50,000-per-month – forced 50 Cent to sell the house in 2019.

    MARYLAND
    Tyson’s Maryland residence was bought with ex-wife Monica Turner in 1995.
    The pair lived there through the early 2000s, until the pair divorced after she claimed he committed adultery.
    Turner won the house in the divorce settlement, which is just 30 minutes from Washington DC.
    It features seven bedrooms, a large gym, game room, swimming pool, sports court and a piano room.
    It also overlooks the Congressional Country Club golf course, which has hosted several US Open tournaments.
    Back in May, the home was listed for sale at £7million.

    THE HANGOVER PAD
    In 2008, Tyson let Hollywood film director Todd Phillips into his £1.5million Las Vegas pad to film legendary scenes from the hit comedy movie.
    And what a lavish setting it is too.
    Found in the beautiful gated community called Seven Hills in the suburb of Henderson, it boasts six bedrooms, six-and-a-half bathrooms and its own private balcony.
    There’s also the incredible 18-hole Rio Secco Golf Club to enjoy, as well as four large private parks filled with basketball courts, tennis courts and football pitches.
    Like many new builds in Las Vegas within gated communities, the 5,740-square-feet mansion was built in an Italian style in 2001.
    Two-storeys in size, the entrance opens to a grand reception room with a 25-foot-high lit waterfall, which connects to the great room that has a wet bar and fireplace.
    Tyson lived in the property with third wife Lakiha, eventually selling it in 2016.

    HIS CURRENT HOME
    Today, back at the top, Tyson lives a life of luxury once more. And he loves living in Henderson, Las Vegas.
    Shortly after he sold ‘The Hangover’ home, he bought this nearby mansion for £2.5million.
    The 8,149 square-foot mansion in Henderson, Nevada, built in 2001, has plenty of indoor and outside space.
    There are six spacious bedrooms and six bathrooms in his mediterranean-style villa.
    Again, it’s found in the gated community of Seven Hills – so it’s surrounded by parks and tennis and basketball courts.

    There’s also the incredible 18-hole Rio Secco Golf Club to enjoy, as well as four large private parks filled with basketball courts, tennis courts and football pitches.
    Like many new builds in Las Vegas within gated communities, the 5,740-square-feet mansion was built in an Italian style in 2001.
    Two-storeys in size, the entrance opens to a grand reception room with a 25-foot-high lit waterfall, which connects to the great room that has a wet bar and fireplace.
    Tyson lived in the property with third wife Lakiha, eventually selling it in 2016.

    HIS CURRENT HOME
    Today, back at the top, Tyson lives a life of luxury once more. And he loves living in Henderson, Las Vegas.
    Shortly after he sold ‘The Hangover’ home, he bought this nearby mansion for £2.5million.
    The 8,149 square-foot mansion in Henderson, Nevada, built in 2001, has plenty of indoor and outside space.
    There are six spacious bedrooms and six bathrooms in his mediterranean-style villa.
    Again, it’s found in the gated community of Seven Hills – so it’s surrounded by parks and tennis and basketball courts.

    Cristiano Ronaldo’s amazing homes through the years, from humble start in Madeira to Turin villa boasting hillside views

    THROUGH the years, as Cristiano Ronaldo has accrued an estimated wealth of £789million, he’s been able to splash out on luxury homes.
    Life began for the Portuguese legend in a humble Madeira apartment, where he was raised and dreamed of football stardom.

    43

    And when he achieved the almost impossible, his career path took him from Sporting Lisbon to Manchester United, Real Madrid, and now Juventus.
    Of course, on superstar wages, he upgraded his lifestyle and bought these astonishing homes.
    Here’s where the 35-year-old five-time Ballon d’Or winner has lived and currently resides.
    MADEIRA UPBRINGING
    Ronaldo was born in Funchal and grew up in a modest home.

    He shared a small room with his brothers and sisters, living a life a far-cry away from the one he lives today.
    Back in 2019, Ronaldo reportedly visited his old home to show son Cristiano Jr where he came from.
    “I was so excited for him to see where I grew up,” he told TVI.
    “He went up with me and there were still some of the same people who had lived there at the time.

    “I was moved, if I am honest, because I didn’t expect to see those people, and that touched me a bit.”

    Humble Ronaldo used to sweep the streets of his neighbourhood
    Ronaldo continued that Cristiano Jr, who is accustomed to a more lavish lifestyle, was shocked by the size of his dad’s former bedroom.
    “My son turned to me and said: ‘Papa. Did you live here?’ He could not believe it.”
    MANCHESTER
    From 2003-2009, Ronaldo starred for Manchester United.
    And like most of his team-mates, he lived in the very exclusive Alderley Edge area.
    The £3million mansion he called home for three of those years has five large bedrooms, his and hers dressing rooms with an en-suite, a huge garden and charming terraces.
    The property also features an indoor swimming pool, steam room, jacuzzi, gym and cinema room.
    When Ronaldo left the Premier League giants, he kept the property for a further nine years before finally listing it.

    MADRID
    Following his then-record breaking transfer to Real Madrid for £80million, a more substantial property was needed.
    He chose a stunning £4.8million abode in the expensive La Finca neighbourhood, designed by renowned architect Joaquin Torres.
    The pad has both an indoor and outdoor swimming pool, which Ronaldo used to regularly exercise in.
    The home also includes a state-of-the-art gym, equipped with treadmills, a weights section and stretching zone, so Ronaldo could keep in shape at home.
    Outside, the giant plot has a football pitch next to the outside swimming pool and relaxation area with sun loungers and chairs.
    Ronaldo also had the door handles monogrammed with his initials.

    TURIN
    Another move, another new home.
    In 2018, Ronaldo moved to Juventus. And he needed a house that was fit for the new king of Turin.
    His current digs feature two adjoining villas found on a private road guarded by security, which leads to an entrance gate.
    The villas themselves have separate entrances, and are surrounded by lush gardens and vegetation.
    Ronaldo is believed to have fallen in love with the home because of its similarities with his Madrid property.
    There’s a state-of-the-art gym that he and former shop assistant Georgina love to use together. And there’s also a swimming pool, which Ronaldo cools down in by doing a few laps following a strenuous session lifting weights.
    The property is so high up, ‘it’s as if Turin were at the feet of CR7, a tribute of the city to the long-awaited and newly-arrived champion,’ La Gazzetta dello Sport reported at the time of purchase.

    THE HOLIDAY HOME
    In 2019, Ronaldo reportedly spent £1.4million on a holiday home in the Costa del Sol.
    The area the lavish house sits in is called ‘The Superstars Cul-De-Sac’ because of the number of famous residents who live there.
    UFC star Conor McGregor is also believed to own a property nearby.
    It’s got four bedrooms, high-vaulted ceilings and incredible views of the sea.
    There’s a private golf course, the driveway is lit up by LED lights, private gyms, an in-built cinema and infinity pool.
    What’s good for Conor is definitely good enough for Ronaldo.

    BACK TO MADEIRA
    Home is where the heart is for Ron.
    His seven-storey mansion in Funchal was finally finished last summer – four years after the former Manchester United No7 bought a warehouse and converted it into this luxury abode.
    It is believed Ronaldo splashed around £7million to recover the dream home, with missus Georgina Rodriguez smitten by its incredible sea view, as well as its amenities including TWO Olympic-sized swimming pools, jacuzzi and a football pitch.
    It’s not known how many bedrooms and bathrooms the property boasts, however there are four floors above ground.

    A signed Juventus shirt was believed to be taken, as well as a number of small possessions. More

    Mike Tyson’s incredible homes through his career, from 21-bed Connecticut mansion to an Ohio home that’s become a church

    THROUGHOUT the years, as Mike Tyson rose through the ranks to become heavyweight champion of the world, the boxing legend bought and sold some incredible homes.
    ‘Iron Mike’ came a long way from the humble beginnings of his childhood home in Brooklyn to mansions filled with tiger cages as millions of dollars poured in.

    19

    19

    Mike Tyson has lived in the most amazing homes dotted all over America

    After losing it all, Tyson, now 54, is once again worth millions after launching his company Tyson Holistic and flogging medical marijuana.
    And he’s even in line for a comeback – the knockout king is set to face Roy Jones Jr in an exhibition fight on November 28.
    But it’s his former homes that really amaze and show how the king of the ring loved living.
    NEW YORK
    Tyson spent most of his childhood years in a modest apartment in Brooklyn in Brownsville in the mid 1970s.

    It was a neighbourhood, at the time, that was a breeding ground for crime and most residents lived poorly.
    In the past, Tyson has admitted mixing with criminals as he looked for acceptance and joined a gang of petty thieves.
    But in his spare-time in the Brownsville abode, he became fascinated by pigeons.

    He kept coops on the rooftop of the building and cared for the birds religiously.

    Today, apartments in the area can fetch up to £500,000.
    OHIO
    Tyson’s fall from grace began in 1992, when he was convicted of rape and was sentenced to six years in prison, of which he served three.
    Financially drained, he was forced to sell this incredible home in 1999 for around £855,000.
    Today, remarkably, it’s been converted into a church.
    But in Tyson’s day it boasted five bedrooms and a full-size pool and Jacuzzi alongside its tiger cages and basketball court, with the entire pad decked out with crystal chandeliers.
    The delipidated pool has since been turned into a sanctuary while the living room is now a gathering place.
    Remnants of the 53-year-old’s time still remain with the basketball court still intact, as well as Mike Tyson’s name etched onto the front gate.

    And the tall steel cages where Tyson kept his famous four tigers have been dismantled for a pavilion.
    CONNECTICUT
    In 2003, Tyson was declared bankrupt.
    That meant he had to sell up again – and a 52-room mansion in Connecticut he used to live in was eventually bought by rapper 50 Cent for £3.3million.
    Boasting 21 bedrooms, as well as its own nightclub the property is as lavish as Tyson has ever owned.
    The 50,000-square-foot property also has 25 bathrooms, an indoor pool and hot tub, an indoor basketball court, multiple game rooms, a green-screen room, and a recording studio.
    And the opulence doesn’t end there.
    Entering the property through a stately front gate, you’re greeted by a lion statue.
    However, the running costs – believed to be around £50,000-per-month – forced 50 Cent to sell the house in 2019.

    MARYLAND
    Tyson’s Maryland residence was bought with ex-wife Monica Turner in 1995.
    The pair lived there through the early 2000s, until the pair divorced after she claimed he committed adultery.
    Turner won the house in the divorce settlement, which is just 30 minutes from Washington DC.
    It features seven bedrooms, a large gym, game room, swimming pool, sports court and a piano room.
    It also overlooks the Congressional Country Club golf course, which has hosted several US Open tournaments.
    Back in May, the home was listed for sale at £7million.

    THE HANGOVER PAD
    In 2008, Tyson let Hollywood film director Todd Phillips into his £1.5million Las Vegas pad to film legendary scenes from the hit comedy movie.
    And what a lavish setting it is too.
    Found in the beautiful gated community called Seven Hills in the suburb of Henderson, it boasts six bedrooms, six-and-a-half bathrooms and its own private balcony.
    There’s also the incredible 18-hole Rio Secco Golf Club to enjoy, as well as four large private parks filled with basketball courts, tennis courts and football pitches.
    Like many new builds in Las Vegas within gated communities, the 5,740-square-feet mansion was built in an Italian style in 2001.
    Two-storeys in size, the entrance opens to a grand reception room with a 25-foot-high lit waterfall, which connects to the great room that has a wet bar and fireplace.

    MARYLAND
    Tyson’s Maryland residence was bought with ex-wife Monica Turner in 1995.
    The pair lived there through the early 2000s, until the pair divorced after she claimed he committed adultery.
    Turner won the house in the divorce settlement, which is just 30 minutes from Washington DC.
    It features seven bedrooms, a large gym, game room, swimming pool, sports court and a piano room.
    It also overlooks the Congressional Country Club golf course, which has hosted several US Open tournaments.
    Back in May, the home was listed for sale at £7million.

    THE HANGOVER PAD
    In 2008, Tyson let Hollywood film director Todd Phillips into his £1.5million Las Vegas pad to film legendary scenes from the hit comedy movie.
    And what a lavish setting it is too.
    Found in the beautiful gated community called Seven Hills in the suburb of Henderson, it boasts six bedrooms, six-and-a-half bathrooms and its own private balcony.
    There’s also the incredible 18-hole Rio Secco Golf Club to enjoy, as well as four large private parks filled with basketball courts, tennis courts and football pitches.
    Like many new builds in Las Vegas within gated communities, the 5,740-square-feet mansion was built in an Italian style in 2001.
    Two-storeys in size, the entrance opens to a grand reception room with a 25-foot-high lit waterfall, which connects to the great room that has a wet bar and fireplace.
    Tyson lived in the property with third wife Lakiha, eventually selling it in 2016.

    HIS CURRENT HOME
    Today, back at the top, Tyson lives a life of luxury once more. And he loves living in Henderson, Las Vegas.
    Shortly after he sold ‘The Hangover’ home, he bought this nearby mansion for £2.5million.
    The 8,149 square-foot mansion in Henderson, Nevada, built in 2001, has plenty of indoor and outside space.
    There are six spacious bedrooms and six bathrooms in his mediterranean-style villa.
    Again, it’s found in the gated community of Seven Hills – so it’s surrounded by parks and tennis and basketball courts.

    Mike Tyson’s amazing homes through his career, from a 21-bed mansion in Connecticut to an Ohio home that’s now a church

    THROUGH the years, as Mike Tyson rose through the ranks to become heavyweight champion of the world, the boxing legend bought and sold some incredible homes.
    ‘Iron Mike’ came a long way from the humble beginnings of his childhood home in Brooklyn to mansions filled with tiger cages as millions of dollars poured in.

    19

    19

    Mike Tyson has lived in the most amazing homes dotted all over America

    After losing it all, Tyson, now 54, is once again worth millions after launching his company Tyson Holistic and flogging medical marijuana.
    And he’s even in line for a comeback – the knockout king is set to face Roy Jones Jr in an exhibition fight on November 28.
    But it’s his former homes that really amaze and show how the king of the ring loved living.
    NEW YORK
    Tyson spent most of his childhood years in a modest apartment in Brooklyn in Brownsville in the mid 1970s.

    It was a neighbourhood, at the time, that was a breeding ground for crime and most residents lived poorly.
    In the past, Tyson has admitted mixing with criminals as he looked for acceptance and joined a gang of petty thieves.
    But in his spare-time in the Brownsville abode, he became fascinated by pigeons.

    He kept coops on the rooftop of the building and cared for the birds religiously.

    Today, apartments in the area can fetch up to £500,000.
    OHIO
    Tyson’s fall from grace began in 1992, when he was convicted of rape and was sentenced to six years in prison, of which he served three.
    Financially drained, he was forced to sell this incredible home in 1999 for around £855,000.
    Today, remarkably, it’s been converted into a church.
    But in Tyson’s day it boasted five bedrooms and a full-size pool and Jacuzzi alongside its tiger cages and basketball court, with the entire pad decked out with crystal chandeliers.
    The delipidated pool has since been turned into a sanctuary while the living room is now a gathering place.
    Remnants of the 53-year-old’s time still remain with the basketball court still intact, as well as Mike Tyson’s name etched onto the front gate.

    The old fireplace has since been turned into an indoor waterfall while the four-bay garage is now classrooms and a nursery.
    And the tall steel cages where Tyson kept his famous four tigers have been dismantled for a pavilion.
    CONNECTICUT
    In 2003, Tyson was declared bankrupt.
    That meant he had to sell up again – and a 52-room mansion in Connecticut he used to live in was eventually bought by rapper 50 Cent for £3.3million.
    Boasting 21 bedrooms, as well as its own nightclub the property is as lavish as Tyson has ever owned.
    The 50,000-square-foot property also has 25 bathrooms, an indoor pool and hot tub, an indoor basketball court, multiple game rooms, a green-screen room, and a recording studio.
    And the opulence doesn’t end there.
    Entering the property through a stately front gate, you’re greeted by a lion statue.
    However, the running costs – believed to be around £50,000-per-month – forced 50 Cent to sell the house in 2019.

    Man Utd’s best and worst and transfer deadline day deals, including Rooney, Berbatov, Falcao and Martial

    MANCHESTER United are no strangers to the dance of transfer deadline day.
    The Red Devils often dip into their cash reserves on the last day of the window and unveil a star signing.

    This year, Edinson Cavani, Alex Telles, Amad Traore, Facundo Pellistri and Willy Kambwala were all signed with hours to spare.
    But who joined previously on transfer deadline day and how well did they do?
    WAYNE ROONEY
    Throughout the summer of 2004, Rooney, then 18, was linked with a move to Old Trafford.
    Finally, on the last day of the window, the Liverpool-born forward was unveiled for £27million.

    And he would go on to become a legend for the club.
    He scored a record 253 goals, and won five Premier League titles, the Champions League, Europa League and an FA Cup.
    Roo was not just a brilliant deadline day signing, he probably could be United’s best ever.
    VERDICT: HIT

    DIMITAR BERBATOV
    The Bulgarian striker, a ringer for Ocean’s Eleven actor Andy Garcia, joined United for £31m in 2008.
    Before the season began, Sir Alex Ferguson was quoted as saying he expected to sign Berbatov from Tottenham.
    Spurs complained to the Premier League, saying United broke the rules and Berbatov was dropped for the opening month of the 2008-09 season.
    Eventually, United got their man and he enjoyed his best season in 2010-11 – scoring 21 goals in 42 games.
    VERDICT: HIT

    RADAMEL FALCAO
    On paper, United were getting a world beater.
    Colombian forward Falcao was one of the most feared strikers on the planet, after starring at Atletico Madrid and then Monaco.
    And when a loan deal with a view to a £44m permanent move was agreed, the fans were dancing on cobbled streets.
    However, the move was a disaster for Falcao – who scored just four goals in 29 games for Louis van Gaal’s side.
    It was no surprise that United didn’t exercise their right to buy him at the end of the loan but peculiarly Chelsea decided to take him the following season and, again, he flopped.
    VERDICT: MISS

    SAIDY JANKO
    Who?
    In 2013, Manchester United raided Swiss club FC Zurich for the versatile right back and winger paying an undisclosed fee.
    He was one of only three signings made by David Moyes during that transfer window.
    However, he made just one appearance – an ill-fated runout against MK Dons that ended in an embarrassing 4-0 defeat.
    Janko was loaned out for the rest of the season to Bolton months later, before he moved to Celtic a summer after he was signed.
    VERDICT: MISS

    MAROUANE FELLAINI
    Another Moyes signing of the summer of 2013, Fellaini joined from Everton for a fee in the region of £28m.
    But in his first season the giant Belgium midfielder made just 15 league starts.
    Many pundits labelled Fellaini one of the worst buys of the season, and although things picked up in his second campaign at the club, Fellaini was always a bit-part player.
    It was no surprise to see him shipped off to China in 2019, where he now plays for Shandong Luneng.
    VERDICT: MISS

    REGAN POOLE
    There were high hopes for the Welsh centre-back when he signed for £100,000 from Newport County.
    Shortlisted for the Football League Apprentice of the Year award in 2015, Liverpool handed him a trial a few months after.
    But that summer he joined United.
    Poole made just one appearance for the club, coming on as a last-minute substitute for Ander Herrera in a 5–1 win over FC Midtjylland.
    After loans to Northampton Town and back to Newport County, Poole, still only 22, signed for MK Dons last year on a free transfer.
    VERDICT: MISS

    DALEY BLIND
    The Dutch defender joined Manchester United in 2014 for a fee of £14m.
    But two months into his career in England he sustained a knee ligament injury, which kept him out of action for the rest of the year.
    Something of a utility player, Blind played at left-back, centre back and in midfield.
    In 2018, United cut their losses with the Holland international – selling him back to Ajax for £14m.
    VERDICT: MISS

    10

    Utility player Daley Blind didn’t hit the heights expected at Manchester UnitedCredit: Getty – Contributor
    ANTHONY MARTIAL
    Eyes were raised in 2015 when United settled on a deal worth £58m for Martial from Monaco.
    At the time, it was the highest fee paid for a teenager and a huge outlay for someone who had the potential to be an Old Trafford great, but was unproven.
    Martial, 24, has since silenced doubters – becoming the focal point of the Red Devils attack.

    Last season the French international enjoyed his most prolific season at the club – scoring 23 goals in all competitions.
    With time on his side, he could be a very important player for United in years to come.
    VERDICT: HIT
