    They get paid by Matchroom, it goes down as advertising expenses.

    They mention £500 a week in one of the recent videos, dunno if it is just a flippant remark though.

    the one where he got 'trained' by don charles was hilarious.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H8qW3qKMobw

    that said he really needs to get a better camera and audio setup, its annoying as **** tuning up the volume to try to listen what the person being interviewed is saying and then kugans voice comes over 5 times as loudly because he's at a much closer distance to the mic. that amateurish **** shouldve stopped a long time ago. if you are reading this kugan get better equipment

    It's a flippant remark. IFL clearly make a lot from Youtube views supplemented by filming other things on the side.

    They likely do get expenses for the fights outside of the London area which must save a lot of cash.

    Man IFL is now an important part of build ups for me, seriously whenever something happens at a presser i immedaitly think can't wait for the IFL interview's, IFL interview's are boxers as their real selves, Fighters and Eddie ect will put more promotional spin and soundbites when talking to Sky or something with Kugan they say what they think and thats what makes the interview's great. They do an amazing job for the fans they upload their stuff really quick the fact you don't have to wait long for stuff is great. On Kugan as an intervieiwer practice i guess and the fact he knows all the fighters and promoters better i think he feels he can talk to them more as friends than an interviewer with set questions. Also on their money i'm sure they get money off youtube adds, Kugan also does stuff in sugar hut with Towie people ect gets money from that i think. Also i'm sure Eddie does pay them something or at least their expenses i doubt Kugan or James is making much off IFL nice to see them doing it for the sport big respect to Kugs and Helder

    Totally agree, they do a great job for boxing in all aspects, and having met James and Kugs briefly they seem nice genuine guys. Well done Kugs and James

    Totally agree but with Kugan and James I always thought IFILM was more about the fame than the money. They both want to be actors.

    But if there was no IFILM I would 100% miss it i am completely addicted.

    Improved a lot, they must be good lads most of the boxers and promoters get on great with them, can tell ****** hates their guts though. I think by having such a good rapport with the boxers they get more out of them and the interviews maybe shows more of the true boxer.

    Imagine boxing without IFLTV....I dread that day when it ends. Their coverage is brilliant and I am full on addicted.

    I enjoy watching all the ifltv stuff as it lets you get to know and hear interviews with more boxers and trainers than anywhere else great exposure for up and coming fighters that get a few minutes on ifltv

    A boxing card without the buildup and after fight interviews by IFL is always lacking imo.
    The couple of months period where they were posted missing last summer (I think it was) showed me how much I'll miss it when it's gone.

    Without getting to know the boxers through IFL's interviews and getting a grasp of any needle, their motivations and their aspirations etc sometimes some fights can wash over you a little, you always feel more connected when you have a bit of the back story.
    More than a few times I have looked forward to some fights on the undercard on bills purely cause I now have a grasp of who the characters are that are involved.

    Thanks IFL.
