*Territory is a big deal to Chris Bosh. Although he plays in Florida, he swears his residence is in Texas.
Although he bought a 12,000 square-foot home in Biscayne Bay in 2010 for $12.5 million, he says the seven-bedroom eight bath home with an infinity pool and an elevator isn’t really his home home. It’s just, you know… a spot to stay in while working.
According to Jose Lambiet’s Gossip Extra, the Miami Heat star claims in recent court papers in Orlando, where he is in a money battle against his baby’s mama, that he really lives in a different state. He’s actually attempting to gyp the system by using his Texas address in a lower middle class neighborhood in the Dallas area.
His 1,900 square-foot Texas home is worth $73,000.
Will it be a convincing argument in court? It’s hard to tell; especially because things don’t appear to be in his favor being that he’s an $18-million-a-year earning athlete.
If he does win the argument, however, he would only have to pay $2,600 a month for child support for his little girl.
But if the judge doesn’t read through the lines, he’ll have to pay three-percent of his monthly income … $30,000 a month to Allison Mathis, his baby mama, er, we mean his baby daughter.
Mathis’ lawyer, Jane E. Carey, stated: “He’s fighting like a dog to remain a Texas resident. It is just not true that he lives in Texas. Even his son was born (in May) in Miami.”

That picture is too funny!
It looks like his ex has FINALLY wised up and got her a good lawyer. I say sock it to him…
Amen to that! If he was doing what he should’ve done IN THE BEGINNING which is paying the correct amount, he wouldn’t be going through this. No sympathy from me.
Well sure, if he were a deadbeat dad. But there’s no indication suggesting such.
This is simply more of the bias against men…especially black ones.
If he had did what he was suppose to which is to pay the amount of child support that was set by the court in the first place, this wouldn’t have happened. Name calling does not change the fact that the courts, not the mothers, set the amount for child support. Punishing the child in effort to get back at the mother, speaks volumes to me. It seems okay to punish your ‘black’ child in the name of ‘black fathers aren’t treated fairly by the courts’. This would not be an issue if he had simply paid what he was supposed to. Yet, he is busy fighting not to pay what he is supposed to. Again, speaks volumes about his character and how he feels about his ‘black girl child’.
Punishing the child in effort to get back at the mother, speaks volumes to me
This essentially captures my point about the bias against men.
I just wrote that we’ve yet to see any evidence that he’s neglecting his child. Have we? Yet, you are oriented in such a way that you see a parent’s refusal to pay 30k/month for his child is akin to the child being “punished.” Statements like such prove that people are more interested in going after the parent (and their perception/expection for their wealth) and less such interest in the well-being of the child.
It speaks volumes about the type of society we live in. Bosh is now “punishing” his own child. He previously, “punished” the mom by “forcing” her to apply for foodstamps..something any sane person realized was a 100% PR move. Again, who cares about the child when the mother is “indigent.”
Not going to go back and forth with you on an issue that clearly the courts have set up. None of us know the particulars of what happened between Chris and his former girlfriend or the promises he might’ve made to her. You calling the woman names and talking about how she’s a ‘skank’ defies logic (where did I hear THAT comment from??). So if he divorced his current wife and ended up in the same situation, she’d be a skank too?! He IS punishing his child because if he wanted to do the right thing, he would’ve done it. Period. Some men are ridiculously unrealistic when it comes to raising a child. It’s fine for the woman to bare all the responsibilities raising, caring and providing for child but when it comes to getting men to do their fair share, all of a sudden they are a ‘victim’ and the courts are ‘punishing them’. On individual level, there are probably some men that are being unjustly punished by the court system but some of these men need to learn to do their part by showing up on time for their court dates, ask for extenstions, etc. The courts will work with you IF you work with them.
You can’t compare your lifestyle to that of Bosh. The man is a multimillionaire several times over and if he can pay to have a mansion and other luxuries in his life, which his wife and his current child are enjoying, why can’t the other child have the same benefits? $30k a month is a drop in the bucket for someone of his statue. Some men are just plain mean and vindictive and that’s just how Bosh is coming across right now.
Now you can have the last word. I’m done!
@NYCsoul. You are sadly mistaken to believe that a child should represent a lottery win for the mothers of those children. You believe that the “mother” should live a lifestyle consistent with that the father lives and can provide to the child. That is ridiculous and tries to make a womb some sort of ATM or annuity device. If you were sincere in wanting the “best for the child”, let the father have her. Ask yourself which “FAMILY’ situation seems more secure and beneficial for the child? One with two parents, other siblings, financial security OR welfare mother, unemployed with no place to live. Which would you place your child with if you needed to? So don’t try the interest of the child BS with anyone else. If you need a Biblical reference think of the two women claiming the child belonged to both of them and Solomon said lets divide the child. One woman said no, give the child to her, so as to NOT harm it. Solomon knew that she was the mother as she wished no harm to come to the child. So give Chris the child and let the mother pay him child support or go to jail, lose her license and be considered a deadbeat parent. Of course you won’t agree as this strips her of her windfall payday that most female dream of and hope their wombs will secure for them somehow. Lastly she is to contribute toward the wellbeing and financial responsibilities of their child. NOTE to you, custody is not synonomous with financial support. Going to doctors appointments etc ARE NOT compensable acts and can’t be measured as that parents financial contribution to the child. So just stop the drama. This chick just wants to be rich and feels the baby is HER meal ticket. Peace
Allison’s behaving just like other golddigging groupie whores. That’s exactly why men see them as the semen receptacle they are. The problem is the idiots have babies by these skanks.
Flippin deadbeat!!!!!! I don’t know why she should be called a golddigger. The video showed him excited to have a child with her. The LAW says that he should be paying 3% of his income for shicld support that’s $30,000 a month based on his salary. He was at there when the child was conceived so he neeeds to step up and do what is right. They were TOGETHER when the child was conceived she clearly was not a one night stand and he took part in it so why does she have to be a skank?
$30,000…please, my kid’s father took me to court to reduce his payments of $460.00 (he paid in two installments) and tried to get that reduced so he could afford his BMW payment…and BTW, him and I were friends from high school and started dating when I was 21 and he STILL treated me like a hoe on the street. I promised myself that I would only have a child to a man I was married to and even then he would have to tell me he wanted a child. To date, I have kept that promise. Chris Bosh baby Momma has learned the hard way, there are no guarantees to having a man’s baby, even if you are “with him”.
He was at there when the child was conceived so he neeeds to step up and do what is right.
And there is no information we have showing that he isn’t still involved/caring for his child. The issue is that the the inept mother wants more so that she can buy her belkin bags.
They were TOGETHER when the child was conceived she clearly was not a one night stand and he took part in it so why does she have to be a skank?
Because she’s trying to milk him so that SHE (not the child) can live high on the hog. In any other language..that is S K A N K!
@redbone, so how is he a deadbeat? Because he doesn’t want to give her a $30k/mth lifestyle, he is a deadbeat. If you want to look at who’s a deadbeat, consider a female who is unemployed, being forclosed on and seeking govt. assistance. You just feel that the child should be a meal ticket for both mother and child. You don’t even consider that a child could not consume $30k worth of goods and services. The child would not wear more diapers, need more clothes, take more drinks or eat more food. The child would not be more protected by a roof or need more car seats in a vehicle. The child is NOT responsible for the mothers lifestyle, the mother is responsible for the child’s lifestyle. If the non-custodial parents situation is better that the custodial parents, give the child to the non-custodial parent and let HER pay him child support. Seems reasonable doesn’t it? But not to the brain dead females that believe the child should be her meal ticket. Peace
His 1,900 square-foot Texas home is worth $73,000?!
Come on Chris, no way a baller like you residence is a $73,000 pad. We talking Texas home prices here, not even Florida.
Look at it this way Chris. You gave it a good run. You already saved over 600 grands in child support for the two years that you have been in Florida gyping the system. But every good run will go come to an end.
$30K a month-What does this child need that justifies that kind of money? I mean I read somewhere that he didn’t want his ex doing basketball wifes which if true is wrong on his end but $30K a month is “quite” excessive. Perhpas $60K-*0K a year tops but anything over that is WAAY Overboard.
60K-80K LOL
“Again, speaks volumes about his character and how he feels about his ‘black girl child’.”
@NYCsoul, ITA. There is a visceral distaste for Black women and their children. Just look at the name calling to understand the circular hatred that is now impossible stop. I announced at a very young age (@13 or 14) that I never wanted to have children. Perhaps I knew on a deep level what would be in store for them.
As usual, you sound idiotic. Chris Bosh now hates his own child?
But we also learned something very telling, you, at the age of 13, knew that you didn’t want to have kids. Sounds like emotional trauma if you ask me.
Naw, mofo I’m talking about you…not Chris. You despise anything that comes out a Black woman’s ass…even yourself. And no there was no emotional trauma…just started peeping dirty lowdown SOBs at a young age and was smart enough to know how prevalent they were. I do not regret my choice one bit and never wavered once. The idea of vile, loathesome creatures like you serve as a stark reminder of how much I’d hate the prospect of having a son much like yourself or a daughter who’d have to live in a world with you. Got it now?

Yep, that pretty much settles it. You were molested by your male (black) teenaged neighbor.
Or he convinced you to let him pop the cherry and you’ve since regretted it.
Or you got pregnant@13 and swore off men altogether….*well at least the black ones*
just started peeping dirty lowdown SOBs at a young age and was smart enough to know how prevalent they were
In other words, “I was a prepubescent whore who later learned that I should expect more from men than simply allowing them a warm dry place in which to leave their penile juice.”
I’m sure that’s your ‘dark twisted fantasy’ but you couldn’t be further from the truth. But since I’m a Black woman my history has to mirror a ‘Precious’ for example. You’re despicable and needs to catch a bullet real soon!
NYCsoul, you are lowered to the rank of ‘skank’ basically for giving a damn about one of them. Nothing else to it.
