[dankitydank]

Koncz and Arum can go suck each other off in a corner somewhere.

Ladies and Gentlemen...Pacquiao is going to be in the sport of boxing for a very very..long time .....now
Thanks to Michael ****s ...saw that dude in person at the Bradley & Rios press conference...hes a scum bag! no personailty, p.r., just a robot / pawn of bob arum.
manny is the biggest idiot in the world though for never leaving arum especially after all the advice from vision....i will not be surprised one bit if manny resigns with top rank after this year. its all hes done

This is the part of your post I most agree with even though its a pretty mean thing to write, but the fact is Manny is an idiot (he can't manage his life) and now everyone is really getting a good look at it. Fans that are honest with themselves will ascribe some blame to the people surrounding him, but who's more to blame for this fiasco than Manny himself?

News reports say Koncz had a stroke in Nov., so I doubt he's gonna be up for any IRS meetings. Manny should've left Arum though years ago. GBP may not be squeaking clean (nothing in boxing is), but that'd be a he!!uva lot better than where he is now. He'd have the Floydie fight, better management... all around better choice for him. Hope it happens.

They can't believe anything about Floyd if it runs counter to their narrative.

When all this is set and done and Manny's name is cleared, the person or people that are truly responsible for this must be held accountable for their actions and for all of the trouble they have caused Manny. Those held accountable desserve to go to prison for it because this wasn't a simple mistake, we're talking about millions of dollars and it's not something that simply got overlooked by accident. Who ever did it knew what they were doing and purposely stole Pac's money and they must be punished.

even if he goes to jail manny will still be accountable thats the sad part

to be honest it's arum.......konz looks up to arum and will only do what arum says.........so in a way it's arum. he's only using konz to screw over pac (both arum and konz have tagged teamed big time)

if all this is true they would never have let manny fight mayweather it would affect the money trail. I just find it hard to believe manny is this dumb we all talk about him like hes an innocent kid i mean seriously hes a dam congressman he should know whats going on

If Pacquiou hasn't been paying his taxes then its no ones responsibility but his own. Surely he does a return every year? If he has fully delegated that responsibility to someone else and doesn't even check to make sure it's done then he's an idiot.

That said, he'd still have beaten Floyd if they had fought in 2010!

It's a damn shame, all the money this dude made for them.

Enough of this blaming everybody else for Manny's problems. It is always some Philippines political conspiracy or just a conspiracy in general. Like when VisionQwest was being bribed by Floyd, or how USADA is a puppet organization secretly run by Floyd to make Pacman test dirty. I feel like Manny deserves plenty of blame for these troubles. He is an adult and an elected public official. If he can't even keep his own house in order, what the hell is he doing making decisions that potentially impact a nation?

The people surrounding Pac and even Pac fans themselves deserve some of the blame too. If everyone wasn't so complacent and determined to hand wave away anything critical of Team Pac, I mean the red flags have been around for years. Instead people wanted to look at Arum as some loving father-figure to Manny, rather than a promoter in one of the most corrupt sports on Earth. People from Team Pac were saying there are financial issues seemingly years ago already. Instead of making 50 threads a day back then about "pay your taxes Floyd" perhaps if you had made 50 "Why would Manny fire a forensic accounting firm for doing their job?" threads things would be slightly different.
