From ABS-CBN News site:
MANILA, Philippines – Filipino boxing icon Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao has reportedly fired his business advisor, Michael Koncz.
According to a report from Manny Piñol of PhilBoxing.com, Koncz was dismissed by Pacquiao after several mistakes regarding Pacquiao’s MP Productions.
Piñol cited "very reliable sources from Cebu City."
In Manny Pacquiao's official website, Timothy James wrote: "Michael Koncz has been fired and he has been removed from his position."
Piñol says that Koncz was able to work himself into Pacquiao's inner circle despite not being very knowledgeable about boxing.
"He also gained the confidence of Top Rank bossman Bob Arum who used Koncz as his 24-hour bridge to Manny," Piñol writes.
As to the cause of Koncz' ouster, Piñol believes that it may be due to the Canadian's questionable decisions regarding Pacquiao's MP Productions.
"It could be deeper," Piñol adds. "Lately, Koncz has been making his own pronouncements and declarations apparently without the clearance of his boss, the Pacman, in relation to the dreamed fight with Floyd Mayweather."
James says that an official statement will be released on Pacquiao's website.
it wasn't kontcz who told pac to lie and avoid the test and file a lawsuit..it was bob arum but i see pac fans still praise arum lol
by supporting arum you don't really want to see the fight.
just sayin
yeay.. nice.. been waiting for him to get the axe for a long time.. it could not have come much sooner.. but better be late than never.. and lmfao at these flomo hippos here hoping against hope that koncz's the one.. the one that would answer their pervent hope and prayers that pac's really using peds..
I'm sure most people who become disenfranchised with Pacquiao will come claiming PED links out of spite just to add fuel the fire.
that would be funny if he ends saying some shiit like that
the guy seems really manipulative and sneaky . Once his money runs out he'll probably release a book on how many was on PED's the whole time or give interviews.
dumb decision. whos gonna make the reservations and clean manny's gloves from now on?
I guess one of the other 50+ Filipinos in his entourage got promoted and Pac had to make room.
i'm actually expecting this....
I'm sure most people who become disenfranchised with Pacquiao will come claiming PED links out of spite just to add fuel the fire.
I just read on Pacquiao's official website that Koncz was fired. It sounds too good to be true. If it is true? ....... Finally.
what did he do anyway??....as Ellerbe said he has no authority anyway. Either way hope it's true.
