Now, were talking about 2 countries only? Is it any? Or is it just the US and the UK only? Those were your own words. I just reposted it. Make up your mind Ray.

Maybe civilise is the wrong word to use but my point was a country like America who are sooo hard with their tax laws wouldnt let someone like Pacquiao escape with millions without taxing him.
The same way the UK tax people earning millions/athletes 50% of their income. Monaco or the oil rich countries have nothing to lose so of course they wouldnt tax no-one just bring your millions to their countries.

Yes i meant countries like the UK or the USA, I didnt mean countries that are not so involve in boxing. Maybe thats clear enough for you.

Originally posted by sigrab View PostFine. I just responded to your previous post about any country. I see where you're going here. It's nice to finally have a decent discussion without someone calling the cops. Peace.
No worries, I dont mean to disrespect any other country, The only names that pop into my head when it comes to hardline on tax was America and the UK but i just use any to group everyone especially the fact that the fight was going to happen in one of those countries.
Good discussion though, At least it wasnt turn into a childish rant i dont mind admitting am wrong when am wrong, I like to learn at everything cause it makes me a better person.

Pacquiao's 36.6 mil will end up being more than Floyd's 50 mil after taxes.
The only advantage Pac has is that he live in the Philipines. The money hes made in the last 3 years will be enough to provide the lifestyle of a king for 4 or 5 life times in his homeland.

If anyone can enlighten me if i'm wrong here, isn't the reason why Pac trained in the Philippine first was to avoid taxation from the US?
That's what i've read on his Cotto fight and now Pac's team announced they will train again in Bagiuo, Phils for this fight.
So how can Pac be taxed by the US same as floyd who is a US citizen? I know very well all US citizen wherever you are currently living, you still need to pay taxes unlike pinoys if they earned it outside the Phils. they are not imposed any taxes.

Originally posted by ILLipino View PostPacman played smart on the negotiation between him and mayweather Jr. Pacman is way ahead of anybody's mind. He played tricks like a true gambler fighting for advantages and Mayweather falls into a situation where he could no longer back out.
First Pacman played hesitant to fight Floyd when he was interviewed after the fight with Cotto. Floyd got ****y thinking Pacman doesn't want to fight him as shown in many interviews.
Second Pacman played that he doesn't need Floyd to prove something and his aiming for eight title in eight division. Floyd was lost in the circulation and has no where to go but fight the winner of Mosley/Berto fight which he may think more risk because these are bigger guys compared to Pacman.
Third Pacman declared he would only fight in March 2010 due to the Philippine Election in May which he will run for the congressional seat. Then he said later no more fight on March 2010 that all future fights will be after the election. Mayweather was quick to throw his ace in the table that he would fight Pacman on March 2010 thinking Pacman won't take the date because of the short time frame after the Cotto fight. And Mayweather is well rested after the JMM fight.
When Bob came to Philippines to negotiate the fight on March 2010 Pacman grabbed the rope and smartly trapped Mayweather Jr. Mayweather Jr. tried to wiggle out of the trap by asking the fight should be at 154 lbs, and 10 ounce gloves went back fired. There's no where to go now but to stand on his challenge to fight pacman on March 2010 sooner that we all think.
Now the Mayweather's family could be pointing fingers to each other's mess. Their bigmouth was very well read by Pacman on the other side of the table and there were silence on Mayweather's camp. But of course the winner will be decided on the top ring as the greatest fight of the century.
Brilliant move by manny pacquaio!

Man, tell you the truth the winner of this fight is whoever wins the fight itself. I think whoever wins here will be the face of this generation of boxing
