Arum: Pacquiao-Marquez 5 won't be in U.S. (thanks *****)

[IIG]

Good riddance.

[YOU WILL LOSE]

LOL @ these hypocrits, like they wouldn't ***** about having to pay an extra 1,000,000 on a 20mil purse. In one fight, those two would have to pay more in INCREASED taxes than most of you will pay in your entire lives.

yep...lifes over. this other $19 mil i'm set to make will have to wait. i need that other one million!!!!!

if arum doesn't close up shop on top ranks offices and move it to qatar or whatever country he likes better is he a hypocrite?

[ItsTrue]

Schools are closing because there isnt enough tax revenue to pay teachers because bob arum would rather not pay a tax and move it overseas where none of the food beer tickets or employees pay will be taxed. Blame arum not *****.

[Khalid X]

C'mon Man!!!!!!

My check decreased too....I don't like that....

But what schools are you speaking of? Somewhere in Southern VA? I can see funding not being there because they are small time....that's the reason they integrate with other larger schools...nothing wrong with that.....

Dude your check decreased because payroll taxes returned to 6.2% (what it has always been).

It's because of ***** it was at 4.2% for the last two years and it actually should have only been 1 year (2011) but ***** pushed for an additional year to help 95% of Americans out.

This isn't aimed at you...but I don't get why people bash ***** for this when it was due to him people were able to get a break for the last two years. People cry about ***** giving handouts and then turn around when one of his hand outs expires (payroll tax return to normal rate) and complain? I really don't get it?

I was honestly hoping PAC would do a fight in the Philippines or something. Quit chasing the buck and go back to "fighting for the people". I think his fans over there deserve a good show.

I'm with you. Stars like Pacquiao, Marquez and others need to at least do one mega fight in their country, every so often, as a way to give back to their fan base.

I'm with you. Stars like Pacquiao, Marquez and others need to at least do one mega fight in their country, every so often, as a way to give back to their fan base.

Yeah definitely...and to your point earlier about not fighting only in Vegas - it's too bad there aren't that many popular "hometown hero" type fighters in the US, so that in between big fights the stars can go in and fight them and it would still make sense financially.

[apocalypto]

Hopefully it happens in azteca stadium in mexico city that sht would be epic would be the best athosphere in any big fight

[zuldo]

that's why pac-floyd never happened? ain't that Bobby?

You don't get it, that $20 instantly gets hit with a 35% tax withholding and after fees, you're looking at maybe taking home about $10mil. That one mill extra taxes is now 10% of their take home. Now tell me, would you be happy to have a 10% deduction on your gross income if you could avoid it?
