Fair enough to be annoyed by that.
That's because most people have regular jobs and have to pick and choose what pressers and shows they go to, as opposed to trying to leech on with a "look at me hanging out with boxers behind the scenes" approach.
BTW - can somebody post a link to the said incident?

That post sounds a bit bitter. They've made it their living by taking a risk initially and putting the work in. Fair play to them.
Oh, and all the links are on Ifl TV

I doubt very much that the ongoing sponsorship from Macklins gym is enough for them to be making a living out of it.

Is AJ versus Whyte a big one in your eyes, Jamie?

There's advertising money from Youtube as well and they have a show on allegedly that they'll be getting paid for. Whether that's enough for them to make a living from it though I don't know.

Domestically, it is. I'd say any sold out 18,000+ arena show is a big one in this country - common sense, surely?
And it clearly is for these Ipad vloggers desperate to get a few hundred views on their Youtube channel.

Most of their youtube videos get a few hundred views. There are videos of paint drying that get more views than that.
