Gambler,

All I ever have to do is sit and wait. These Pac****** know absolutely nothing about basic business.

I friggin' told them, but they argued and called me all types of childish names.

Hey I have tried to tell them the same stuff, I find sport business very interesting and I don't want any boxer to be taken advantage of, it is a hard living and they earned whatever they get. It sucks to see them get done like this.

What thanks did I get, for what they don't get or see~

"man you are a bitch for caring about what another man makes"

"you just hate Manny and are jealous"

"Floyd Floyd Floyd FloydFLoydFloyd, Mayweather, Floyd, FloydfloydfloydFloyd.............. Floyd Jr."

It makes no sense. The same guys who claim not to care about the business side of boxing then turn around and complain that they're not seeing the fights they want.

Well, what's the PRINCIPAL reason that fights don't get made? Money. Business.

Preaching to the choir man.

I can understand not liking the business side interfering but to just not take it into consideration at all when it is really the biggest factor, I can just not understand that.

First of all, I work in Finance. So, this is not speculation or unwarranted criticism. This is what I know and what I do.

So that I didn't pre-judge, I picked up the phone and called the accounting group myself. I asked a simple question, and was bounced to three different heavily-accented people in an attempt to get an answer to a BASIC (i.e simplistic, fundamental, elementary) financial question. The people on the phone (presumably bookkeepers?) had not even heard of the word.

What question did you ask?

Are you sure you where not talking to a receptionist/clerk/secretary?

Why did you call them in the first place?
Dont tell me it was because you wanted to make a thread on Boxingscene.

It would be laughable if it was not so sad.

I'm not blaming Manny. On the contrary, somebody is pulling the flim-flam on Manny. Pac's team is NOT doing right by him, and SOMEBODY (other than Manny) is profiting from this.

Manny.... BE CAREFUL!!

OK.. so ONE MONTH after I posted this, it seems that Manny stormed out of VisionQwest's offices



It seems that Koncz is saying that VisionQwest "tricked" him.




There are shocking - SHOCKING - developments. Who could have ever predicted that Team Pacquiao would have problems with VisionQwest?

I told you so.

VISIONQWEST LEAVES MANILA WITHOUT MEETING PACQUIAO; LEGAL BATTLE LOOMS

By Eddie Alinea

VisionQwest CEO Michael Lodge.

The contract boxing idol Manny Pacquiao signed to acquire the services of Los Angeles-based VisionQwest accountancy firm has officially been terminated. At least as far as Team Pacquiao is concerned.


To VisionQwest president and CEO Michael Lodge, however, the issue is far from over as he intimated he intends to make true his earlier warning to seek legal remedy if he and his team fail to attain the purpose of coming to Manila. Lodge and his team of accountants and lawyers left in a huff after failing to seek an audience with the eight-division champion, who last week terminated the services of Lodge’s firm barely weeks after its consummation.

Lodge and company were hoping to meet with the Pacman in the hope of clarifying some issues in the unilateral withdrawal of authority to review all the past and future business and financial dealings the Sarangani Congressman gave the firm.

The last straw in Lodge’s efforts to save the deal came Tuesday evening when Pacquiao and his team, for the second straight day, failed to show up to meet its VisionQuest counterpart. “Manny refused to meet with our firm,” Lodge said in an email message sent to this reporter Tuesday night. We will fly back to the US tomorrow and take legal action.”

“No more games to be played. No further comments will be made,” Lodge vowed in his message as he refused to answer further questions by this reporter.

Lodge and his team arrived Manila Saturday and since then had hoped to speak with Pacquiao personally or his representatives.

A meeting set lasts Monday did not materialize, but Lodge hoped to finally meet with the boxer Tuesday to no avail. It was in his failure to see Pacquiao Monday when Lodge hinted of going to court probably feeling he and his team’s visit to the country would prove futile. “As you know, we are in the Philippines meeting with our counterpart in legal and accounting prior to our meeting with Manny,” Lodge said then.

Pacquiao’s hiring VisionQwest was borne by su****ion that the Filipino ring icon is being shortchanged in his purse in his previous fights as well as in payment for his commercials endorsements.
