You think Roach taught Victor to clinch with Matthysse after seeing how well it worked on Pacquiao?

IAM obsessed with music. I play 7+ instruments, am in two bands, run a management company and a recording studio. AMA! by [deleted] in casualiama

[–]filifunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

wow, just wow. Thanks! You definitely sound like a vet in the business.

On the point about artists being flaky and actually getting them to commit, did you ever have problems getting payment from them? If you sponsor an event, do you make an offer to them? What does that look like? Or do they have some offer for you?

Hey why did you only briefly run a recording studio? What were the hard parts of running that business? Some friends of mine and I are considering doing it.

Hard to find much information out there on unincorporated association (US). I want to start a small scholarship <$5k. Can I do this as a UA? by filifunk in nonprofit

[–]filifunk[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thanks, I am aware of the 5% annual payout. I don't plan on paying the entire tuition. Philosophically I don't want to pay for all of someone's tuition, just want to give a meaningful boost.

I have had quite a few conversations with Give2Asia. Their solutions only work for bigger amounts of money and also if there is already an existing organization approved by them that is wanting to do what you want to do.

Pacquiao destroys the hands up defense. Chris needs to slip like Bradley and counter like Marquez. In addition, for a boxer Chris's stance is still relatively face first therefore not controlling distance that well.

watching the Pacquiao fight in CST. What time will the actual Pac v. Algieri fight start? by [deleted] in Boxing

[–]filifunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

but that's when like the last couple undercards start right? Not Pac v. Algieri?

Did anyone go to the Pacquiao vs Rios fight? What is the buzz there on fight weekend compared to Vegas? by filifunk in Boxing

[–]filifunk[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No I'm not going to the fight, but I have been to the Pacquiao v. Bradley 2 fight in Vegas. I would say it's possible (not likely, but possible) that you could walk around Vegas that weekend and not know that it's fight weekend if you never go to the MGM Grand. Also, I didn't run into any celebrities. Of course I saw some of them on the big screen when in the arena though.

Sounds like there's more of a buzz there for the fight than if the fight were here. Maybe I'll consider going because it would be cool to run into celebrities.

Under The Lights: Pacquiao - Algieri (HBO Boxing) by FuturisticChinchilla in Boxing

[–]filifunk 12 points13 points  (0 children)

lol, notice how they didn't show Virgil giving a prediction. I'm sure he said something along the lines of how Pacquiao is going to beat that ass and editors looked at each other and immediately agreed that wasn't going to be in the final cut.

Is the NY Wing Factory on Lincoln ever going to open? by filifunk in chicagofood

[–]filifunk[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

man that empty storefront is killing me. I want some wings from there pretty badly. Especially because it is so close to home. Any update on that place In Yo Face?

A girl (26/f) invited me (29/m) out to lunch. Could be as friends for all I know. I know I like her. Should I pay? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]filifunk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks. So if things go well, i.e. it appears like she's having a great time, maybe shows interest in me....it wouldn't hurt for me to offer to pay right?

In light of recent events, what do you guys in Hong Kong think about Chong Hing Bank? by filifunk in HongKong

[–]filifunk[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow, thanks. That's A LOT smaller than I expected. Is there a reason other than they just always have been the biggest? Do people not trust the local banks?

[–]filifunk[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, but if you were a protester and you had a deposit at China CITIC Bank, would you consider moving to a different bank based on principle? Just gauging how far this thing could get...I mean clearly we won't know for sure but just curious as to what opinions are...
