Yea Manny said all that... not likely. Sounds more like a press release with his name attached to it. Lets just be honest and say the difference is TAXES.

Marketing Manny in Macau was a very smart businerss move by Arum. It's basically a "no-brainer." Pacquiao vs. Rios and Algeri would not do as well in Vegas as it would in China.
