That's really just for the one fight though. He's not gonna get paid nearly that much for every fight he has because he's not gonna fight Mayweather level every time.

He could/pretty much already is the next big name fighter. That's why this matchup was created in the first place. Plus, bruh, $100 million+. That dude is set.

You'd think that about Mayweather too but he needs the fight because he didn't pay his taxes from his last damn fight. These guys aren't really known to be financially responsible.

McGregor is way smarter than mayweather though

oh i didn't know you guys were friends and you knew him personally my bad

Pretty obvious really. Mayweather can't even read and can barely seem to form coherent sentences whereas McGregor seems to be a master trash talker/linguist. Plus he's an aging boxer and they almost always have a some mental issues after fighting for so long. On top of that McGregor has managed to talk his way into a boxing ring for a 100 million dollar fight. Mayweather may have some business savvy but McGregor has quite a bit more finesse I'd say

Mayweather should win, but if McGregor wins, that's a shit ton of money that going to flow into boxing for a new generation. They need a new big name and he is the prime candidate.

Are you under the impression if he wins he's going to continue boxing instead of returning to the UFC? Did I miss something?

Money talks bby. He's about to pull in over $100 million from this fight. Mayweather looking at $350 million. I don't know if UFC can match that.

How does boxing generate that much money for a fight? PPV will be super expensive, as will ticket sales, but it's insane to me how much money the purse holds.

im friends with a wing house waitress and she said it was around $4000 just for them to have the fight on all of there tvs. that's just one bar

A guy that owns a bar I go to said it was $8000 for them

Fuckin waffle house bruh

I think mcgregor will last longer than people think. Mayweather is a defensive fighter and at his age and with conor's punching power he'd be smart to feel him out at first. I even believe he has an outside shot with a lucky hit just because at this point mayweather is old af and hasn't fought in 2 years.

Yes I wanna see the shitshow

I mean, I can point out things like how badly blacks get screwed over by the justice system, from increased arrest rates, greater rates of being held without bail for the same crime, greater conviction rates, longer sentences, and lower rates of parole:

I won't disagree here but I'm also referencing upstanding citizens not recidivist criminal morons. Don't be a criminal. Don't get convicted of crimes. Simple as that

darkknight109 posted...

...or the fact that, when applying for a job, "black-sounding names" are significantly less likely to get a call-back when applying for jobs, when compared with "white-named" applicants with the same or lesser qualifications:

According to crf-usa.org lol. For good jobs, qualifications speak much louder than names. Employers won't care what your name sounds like if you have
a chemical engineering degree. If you're applying for McDonald's well...

Sorry if I exceed your attention span. I admit I'm poorly suited to the Twitter generation, but some concepts require a bit more elaboration than 140 characters.

Naw I just think you're overcompensating

darkknight109 posted...

Where did I suggest that wealth doesn't constitute privilege? Of course it does. Wealth is probably the single biggest indicator of privilege there is since we no longer live in the days of peerage.

That said, that's not what we're discussing here. Peterass's initial reference was to "white privilege" specifically; that has to do with race, not wealth.

You vastly downplayed it's role compared to race initially. Wealth is a waaaaayyy bigger factor than race

Maybe they specialized in a more lucrative area or their starting wealth roll was good

This sentence alone shows how incredibly asinine your entire argument is. Not simply the fact that you're trying to argue a point by using WoW metaphors but also because you seem to be denying the enormous privilege that a wealthy background affords you in life. And unlike your white privilege argument, that's actually easily proven and backed by vast amounts of data.

systemic discrimination

You mean like more available scholarships and affirmative action?

darkknight109 posted...

bigotry

You mean like telling me I'm automatically privileged without knowing anything about me

darkknight109 posted...

What exactly would you prefer I support it with? It's not like the definition of white privilege is something that's going to show up in a peer-reviewed, scientific journal -

You're right about that

darkknight109 posted...

as well as a bunch of opinion pieces on the subject of privilege

Yep. That's basically what this amounts to. A bunch of victim mentality biased opinion pieces.

Duck-I-Says posted...

Well your initial point was basically supported by "because I said so", so I'm not sure why you're getting all salty about other low effort posts.

That's his schtick. He thinks it makes him look more correct if he types out more characters.

Imagine the shoe on the other foot... for instance if you're poor and white and have to be compared to your more successful dealership owning white peers all the time. How bout dah

Saying something like that and going back on it is just changing your mind. Making a bet and not following through is what makes you a welcher.

I don't think anyone said he was a welcher for that? They just said he didn't keep his word. Read better. Personally I hope Erik is back. This board is so much more entertaining when there's someone around calling people nazis

It probably is him though. Secretly he likes the company of NEO NAZIS

Not long enough for a Raven to travel 1,500-3,000 miles and then a dragon to Travel 1,500-3,000 miles back. They weren't there for weeks and if they were they wouldn't have lived. It was a terrible plot contrivance and the people defending it are in denial.

Agreed. The show is still entertaining for me but like someone else said the writing quality has been noticeably worse since it passed the books. Bran should have a more important role this season and the sansa arya littlefinger story arc has been a little silly.

what's the backstory on erik? i'm assuming he was a troll?

Erik was an annoying af guy, his posts consisted of anti-trump ramblings, general kill-joying, and fabricated stories of his general life. Erik was also tsundere in love with another user here but he never confessed his feelings :'(

In love with who?

bidets are pretty normal

Are you supposed to let the water clean it or do you help it with your hand?

you just let the water spray it and then you can wipe to dry, it's very effective

I prefer to use a pressure washer. It works way better

Do you open your flower to remove the bits stuck deeper?

I'd the psi is high enough it opens your flower for you

Taking an exemption that was placed for people to take is exploiting the system? Right....

Making an exemption and making it opt in instead of giving people what they are owed is pretty sneaky, it tries to stop people getting what they are owed by not being clear.

Making an exemption specifically for a small group you and your friends are part of is also exploitative.

It sounds like you have no idea how the system works tbh

Ergo, everyone should know what they're missing out on because of that person's greed. Tax breaks exist because some people have needs that mean they can't afford pay as much in taxes as they otherwise would be expected to, and that's fine, but when it's just a matter of wanting more money and not actually needing it, that's cheating the system.

You don't get tax breaks without contributing something that is worthy of one though. As I said before, charity is a huge deduction for wealthy folks as well as job creation. If you take away these tax breaks, you take away the incentive to do these things

Kana posted...

man, people here have a weird perception of me

Funny how people somehow always have that perception

Slippery slope absolutely applies here. What qualifies as hate speech is fairly subjective and a restriction like that worries me when pretty everything you say offends somebody in 2017. I imagine we should ban the Quran then too right with its hateful attitudes toward women and homosexuals? See? You aren't enlightened. You're just an old school fascist douche

I guess Erik had to make this after it was revealed tgat hes clarkduke

And if someone finds ways to get tax breaks then more power to them. That's not my business nor is it yours

It kind of is, actually. Tax dollars are public money. If somebody's getting out of paying their fair share of taxes, that's less public money than there should be, and everybody suffers for that. Ergo, everyone should know what they're missing out on because of that person's greed. Tax breaks exist because some people have needs that mean they can't afford pay as much in taxes as they otherwise would be expected to, and that's fine, but when it's just a matter of wanting more money and not actually needing it, that's cheating the system.

It's not cheating the system if it's legal. Blame the tax regulations but don't blame someone for taking advantage of them. The tax code is available to the public. It's nobody's fault but your own for being ignorant to the available tax breaks. A big one that most wealthy people take advantage of is charity though. That's the main deduction for most people of great wealth. You wanna get that break? Donate to charity

Why?

Read what is in the parenthesis.

Yeah, that doesn't answer the question.

Yes, it does.

Okay, if I have to draw it out from you, why are you uncomfortable with your boss knowing that you make more money than them?

Are you being serious right now?

The government *is* people's business. The data would be very useful from a public perspective to analyse who is paying the most and who is paying little or none, and for what reason.

The government is but not my personal finances. We already know who pays what. You can look at tax brackets for that. And if someone finds ways to get tax breaks then more power to them. That's not my business nor is it yours

Why tf should my tax returns be between anyone but me and the government? Quit trying to nose around in other people's business

If you humans would just be trustworthy then we wouldn't need to check if you're cheating all the time.

So because there are a few greedy people, I should be forced to make public what I consider to be private information? What makes you think any of these rich assholes would even care if you knew they didn't pay their fair share?
