that's the point . he didn't . he was the clear winner but due to the corruption that is boxing it's all just hype . nothing to do with earning it .

I'd have thought you'd have ONE Bugatti and spend the rest on other more interesting things.
Rowan Atkinson is my favourite millionaire celeb. Owns a McLaren F1, loves it, drives it everywhere, blasts it in the manner for which it was intended, and he's crashed it and had it rebuilt at least twice. Well done that man!

Anyone who can make this kind of cash, buys bragging rights to owning three and not much else, especially since two of them look almost exactly the same colour etc. Then again, I could imagine giving the other two to a couple of friends for the day and all three of us storming up the California coast for a bit of fun.

Nick Mason for me. A fantastic collection. Bernie Ecclestone also has a fantastic collection of F1 machinery - but the general public never sees it.

no a true car enthuisiast would buy enthuisiast cars. buying three veyrons just says rich wayne kerr trying to big note etc . if he had a proper collection of cars then hed be a car enthuisiast. buying three hummers with gold plated 25 wheels and diamond seat covers just says tacky american. one step further than the kardashians. a true car enthuisiast like the baseball pitcher whos name escapes me right now has a race team etc

He doesn't pitch himself as being a true car enthusiast, but one hell of a rich guy who likes to flash his wealth around. If that what does it for him, that's OK by me. Let's face it - How many of us would show restraint with this kind of wealth?

Speak for yourself!
I WOULD.
MY collection of exotic cars would be well hidden in a barn at my house just up the coast from Monaco, that you wouldn't be able to see from the road. There would NOT be a prime-time reality TV show showing you what I had.
I would have a McLaren F1 for going fast, and yes probably ONE Bugatti for when I just wanted to go a long way on the Autostrada in comfort. And a Ferrari 599 for when the Bugatti is in the shop, and a Type R Civic for when I wanted to be inconspicuous but still make good time.
But most of the rest of the collection would be things like a Ferrari 250 California, BMW 507, 300SL, 3.0 CSL, E type, Bentley R-type Continental.
ALL of them would be driven regularly, and NONE of them would have gold-plated, diamond studded wheels!

$14.75 an hour in 2015 some caregivers are paid, caregivers looking after our mum grandmums. Do not know what is worse the f.cked up so called free market or us weak gutted self centred mass of kiwis that allow it to go on ?
