Comments Thread For: IRS Now Targets Manny Pacquiao For $18 Million in Debt

[billeau2]

How exactly is Manny a good guy? He cheated on his wife, is involved in all sorts of shady political s hit, held back PEDs testing, etc. and has set a poor example for other successful boxers with financial decisions. Floyd is not a good guy. I am not claiming that. But Floyd is very inspirational for setting a business model up that is helping get rid of the broke fighter getting jobbed by the promoter paradigm.

REally?

I am a big fan of Floyd, never been much of a Pac fan....But lets see where Floyd is in a couple of years shall we? His ******** proclivities aside, the IRS will probably nail him as well.

What people fail to realize is that people paying taxes for money on the table, i.e. money the IRS know you have earned is always an invitation for the IRS to go after you. Even when you win, an audit can clear the way for the IRs to shut you down, cost you millions, etc. Athletes are the sweet spot for the IRS. Floyd will be joining Pac as soon as they decide that he hit the jackpot a few too many times...and lol...the loses he can have.

I tend to think that the reason for this is a hit....Somebody with real juice wants Manny out. Its so easy considering Arum's thievery, the gall of the tax collectors, the lack of oversight regarding proper auditing procedures, etc.

But your an idiot if you think Floyd will get by the IRS Buck

So PAC owes taxes in the USA and in the Philippines and they've known this for the past 3 years.

Come on now Koncz.

If all this is true, Pacquiao is so ****ed.

Manny Pacquiao's financial problems are starting to build up. He now has a bill of $18 million dollars ... in addition to his $50 million tax fight in the Philippines ... and this time, it's Uncle Sam that's trying to force Manny to pay up.

TMZ Sports has obtained official documents which show the IRS claims Manny owes the government millions in federal income taxes from 2006 to 2010 ... totaling $18,313,668.79 in debt.

Don't like Konz and Arum but Pac is jut too nice to people he has been around for years. He trust them too much.

As far as Pac owing taxes, i will believed the one in the US more than the one in Philippines. I remember a news about a pro athlete owing the IRS but the years he owes were like 5 years back. Now the one in Philippines, its more of a political agenda.

The IRS owes money to the people lets get them to pay back the money they stole from us all these years because we haven't gotten **** for the money we pay the fed. Mafia government

[Espada]

if it's really true, IRS should be running after Manny not just now but since 2006.

All of you go read about pacquiao and visionqwest and get the real story. The reason manny got audited was cuz he hired these guys due to his su****ion that arum was ripping him off. Turns out koncz actually works for top rank and the two have been filing false tax reports for manny and taking MILLIons from him. I hope these ****s get whats coming and all due jail time and manny gets off free

The article linked above, that cites TMC indicates that the money is a disupute over deductions. So presumably Pacquio was audited? or his return was looked over carefully? We know that the IRS looks at certain returns carefully. That is an important piece of information here.
