Floyd will pray for him.

sheesh.

you actually think this tax "issue" is going to go that far? that its gonna actually make manny lose money over this? you are obviously ignorant of philippine politics.

No I don't think the next likely governor of the province he's in is going to prison. But in a country that elects somone with a 3rd grade education as a congressman I can't expect the judges to be any smarter.

Tax evasion, possible out of wedlock baby with a hooker, adultery, and ******** > tax evasion, beating baby moms, failure to pay rent, and ********!

To the mods I'm just havin a lil fun!

That's not accurate. They filed a criminal complaint after he failed to submit records after several notices and a subpoena. They are trying to build a tax evasion case.

BIR regional director Rozil Lozares confirmed a criminal complaint had been filed, but added: "We haven't reached to the point that he is evading taxes. We are asking him for copies of his contracts to different companies, which he has not given or has refused to give."

The BIR wants to investigate 33 tax records, including Pacquiao's annual income tax return in 2010 and his earnings from bouts with Antonio Margarito and Joshua Clottey, ABS-CBN reported.

Interesting....

So despite saying that Phillipine tax laws are modeled after the US tax laws but are better, and said tax laws are more lenient towards punishing people...

You've just implied that it is easy to evade taxes in the 'Pines and if you are caught, even if it was on purpose and not an accident, then the tax evaders can simply 'fix' the problem and get off near scot-free.

Due to the ease on the punishments on tax evasion it would suggest there is a culture of tax evasion (see Greece), which by itself can be considered a 'gateway' into other forms of fraud.


Is Manny's womanizing common knowledge in the 'pines? Cause you know, being a biblical ambassador is cool and all, but nobody will take a hypocrite seriously you know...

i'm saying that its easier to pay proper taxes in the philippines. whatever it implies, its up to you to decide.

manny himself acknowledged his womanizing and ********. so far, he's made up with his wife and sold his ******** business.

manny and his wife got over his womanizing and ********. his fans have done the same. ironically, those who hate him are the most affected by this.

[KnockUTheFukOut]

kinda Ironic especially since the "CRAZY PACQUIAO FANS" always talk about Mayweather Tax Problems in the past

hopefully it is nothing that serious for Pacquiao

no getting a hooker pregnant (allegedly) when married and adultery combined are worse than beating your babys moms (allegedly) and not paying rent
