why doesnt manny fight in the phillipines?

[Khalid X]

I'm almost positive he will fight there one last time before his career is over.

[Cafe]

hes too busy conquering the world. He is already President of his home country.

[G Doggy Dog]

Because their home countries are poor and nobody can afford tickets to generate money

really i didnt know that about ukraine. but i think manny will fight there one last time maybe his last ever fight

[oscar_angels091]

it wont generate as much money as in the US

[mrpain81]

Manny likes getting paid in greenbacks not chicken feed.

[Cafe]

Not true, just look at Thrilla in Manila, and Rumble in the Jungle.

[paulf]

It would make more money in America and would be a huge hassle and cost a ton of money for HBO to bring their entire production team to the phillipines.

And Manny does everything Uncle Bob tells him to. I doubt Unlce Bob is interested in losing money so Manny can fight in the Phillipines.

LMAO @ Any sane person agreeing to fighting Pac in the Philipines.


You guys know Pac has his own army there right?



LMAO @ the thought of beating Pac in the Philipines and making it out alive.

[Seleção No. 13]

Yeah, I think people forgot about Thrilla in Manila. Arenata Coliseum was the largest covered coliseum back then (correct me if I'm wrong) and President Marcos paid a huge amount of money to get the fight there.

The country's economy is obviously sh.it now, so the chances of a huge fight happening there is small. Congress, however, wants Pacquiao to be the poster boy for tourism. I have a feeling he'll eventually fight there once before he retires and something politically corrupt will happen in between all this. It'll be legendary.

It's funny until you realize how desperate some of these fighters are to fight Pac for that paycheck.
