    I just found it funny that you've gone from warren buffett to all you can eat buffet in 2 posts.

    Fair play to you though warren, them PPV you save on are money in the bank for your next investment; )


    Please provide a quote of me bragging.

    I posted this before, but here you go again. Don't turn up in 6 months saying I didn't provide proof.

    I removed date of incorporation and company number because it's none of your business.

    Lol, it's really not my fault that you think having an investment company = owning half of wall street. They come in all shapes and sizes, but you have to be a little bit educated and involved with business to understand that.

    I don't pay for PPV because I'm not in the country. If you want to believe I can't afford it I mean, that's on you I have no reason to prove you otherwise.

    Let's see him trying to downplay a certificate of incorporation or tell me it's fake

      I posted a link of you bragging.
      Thats the first I've seen of that certificate, tbh I haven't looked at it as I didn't care in the first place.

      I've a good friend in Hong Kong. He owns a clothing factory & supplies many big companies. Maybe you know him or maybe you're not as grand as you're making out.
      I've mixed in all circles from poverty to wealth. My wealthy friends aren't braggarts & they don't illegally stream fights.
      With wealth comes a standard of living, looking for an illegal stream isnt it.
      Next you'll tell me you watch copied movies as you can't make it to the cinema

        Where is the link then? Well then you should have looked in the same thread, don't you think?

        You don't care - But you're the one bringing it up. You posted as if I was lying, now I've given you proof and suddenly you don't care. How manly of you.

        Ok a clothing factory? What does that have to do with what I do? And do you want to give names or should I guess for clothing companies around Hong Kong?

        Yeah, neither am I. But if some idiot like you tries to pass off as if I'm a bum, I'll put it to the test and see which one of is doing best. Your wealthy friends would rather miss a fight than streaming it I suppose.

        I do use popcorn time quite a bit. But I was at the cinema yesterday. So a little bit of both.

        FYI Batman v Superman isn't great.

          Why should I have looked in the same thread? I read a bit on down time. I recalled your boasts of having your own investment company & then in this thread read that you're streaming fights. In this thread you then mention that even if you stayed in the UK you might pay for a fight.

          You stay in Mumbai. A city where men holding other mens hands & touching each others legs is common practice for hetro males. I don't understand why you've turned into butt hurt buffett. Your ring piece must be well worn in by now

          I mentioned my pal as you mentioned Hong Kong. His factory is in India somewhere. My friends are wealthy but I'd be surprised if they were talking about their wealth online with random people on a forum. That was my point. My pals names Julian. He's half Chinese half Indian on his dad's side.

          My wealthy friends don't follow boxing. If there's a sporting event that does interest them they're wealthy enough to attend, not look for illegal streams on the net.

          Thanks for the Batman Superman info. I'll be taking my wee1 to see it when I'm back in the UK

            Because they know what the general public want. And it's not staying up until 6 am to watch steve bunce talk about Robert Helenius being 7 foot tall.

            Sky have Anthony Joshua, Kell Brook, Tyson Fury most likely, James Degale & George Groves - Those 5 alone are Britain's biggest draws. Then add the whole roster of the Olympians, Callum Smith + Sauerlands entire roster incl. Dereck Chisora now too - BNs biggest draw for years.

            They put on a saturday night card once in a blue moon?

            So Kell Brook last weekend, Callum Smith this weekend? Two blue moons in one week! Fantastic coincidence
            Sky have invested everything in the Hearn camp. Sky was the place to go for international boxing events now they don't seem to be showing any, especially after spending so much on May/Pac last year.

            If you love sky so much, so be it but as a boxing fan, it's purely disappointed.

            Oh and yeah, it's amazing seeing Brook fight a journeyman and Callum Smith who is such a big star ... right?

            Man, you're trying too hard. Just come out and say you hate Khan and are happy he isn't on Sky. I'm not sure how that benefits you but whatever.

            For us real boxing fans, we know Sky has gone to the dogs and is far past it's peak when it would showcase the biggest fights, both in the UK and from the US.

              It wasn't "boasts" I was simply stating facts. It had something to do with smart guys on a boxing forum discussing investments. If you're going to discuss something, then let me know your credentials. If you want to discuss investment banking or venture capital with me, I want to know who you are to be discussing it. So I let you know, that I know wtf I'm talking about because I have an investment company.

              Well, actually I am in Kuala Lumpur at the moment. Coincidentally, Mumbai is the most expensive city in the world for real estate and has one of the biggest, if not THE biggest, up and coming consumer population world wide. But yeah, what you said though.

              Haha, and? Good for him. I never said I was wealthy. You are assuming that someone who owns an investment company is wealthy. Again, it shows how much you know - Not very much.

              Right - So your whole "my wealthy friends would pay for PPV" doesn't exactly apply here does it? -because none of your "wealthy friends", who I'm sure exists, actually follow boxing.

              So again, you're trying hard to make out that I'm a lifeless bum like yourself, but I'm sorry mate. Rich people do stream, rich people don't travel across the world every weekend to see bouts.

              Rich people have work to do, they don't have time for that crap. So it's streaming or missing a fight. What am I going to do? Stream.

                You said Sky is dying. And they are doing better for boxing than ever before. So how exactly are they dying? How have they doubled their year on year shows in 4 years if they are dying? It just doesn't make any sense.

                How many shows a year does Frank Warren put on BoxNation? 10 at best? It's stripped to the bone with remains being Liam Smith, Terry Flanagan and Billy Joe Saunders. Hardly competitive with Sky in any shape or form.

                Whether you like Sky's content or not is an entirely different matter. But they are not dying, they are flying.

                  It had nothing to do with investments or venture capitals. You brought it up as some forms of validation in a khan thread.
                  I mentioned that khan didn't need the money & you piped up about how you owned your own investment firm.

                  Mumbai is a **** hole. There's wealth there but when the world is your oyster why choose to own property there. It has an appalling safety record, extreme poverty & is in an area that's changing by the year with extremism.

                  I never said you were wealthy. You suggested that you were & mentioned your investment company as evidence of it. People without 2 pennies to rub together don't own their own investment firm. An investment to some might be a garage or beach hut to store a deck chair. It's hardly worth bragging about though.

                  Ah we're back to you being rich again a haha.

                  I live a good life. I find a perfect balance between work & play. You're that busy being rich and earning money that you're constantly looking for free forms of entertainment. On here & free fights

                  Well done buffet

                    Frank Warren's BoxNation subscription channel have outbid Sky Sports for the exclusive TV rights to Amir Khan's super-fight with Canelo Alvarez late on the night of May 7.

                    Sky have been investing substantially in the event, not only covering the breaking news here but sending a broadcast team to the US to cover major media conferences in New York and Los Angeles.

                    Warren's no-doubt expensive coup will come as a blow to Sky, who dedicate most of their boxing slots to Eddie Hearn's Matchroom promotions but make exception for major events such as Tyson Fury's world heavyweight championship upset of Wladimir Klitschko in Germany last November and are expected to broadcast this summer's rematch.
                    ^ From Daily Mail

                    If Sky didn't want it, they wouldn't have devoted substantial resources to it.

                      Boxnation has shown ggg, kov, Hopkins, khan, Canelo, cotto etc. All the big fights are on boxnation. Sky is good for casuals that buy into haye's pish & so called grudge matches.

                      You haven't earned the right to comment on platforms. You don't support any, you're a leach and should be grateful to see any fights.

                      Boxnation is the home of boxing in UK. If we want to know the best platform for Indian wrestling then you may comment
