Does Pacquiao deserve more?

[Robbie Barrett]

Philippines is a shit hole that's why.

Why would i be troubled? I'm blessed to live in a wealthy country with a good standard of living and not a shit hole like the Philippines.

More what? Money? The guy made 100s of millions in his career including over 100 million in one fight. Fame? He is basically a god amongst men in his home country. He is easily the most popular man in the country and they elected him to a top position in the country even without anything close to resembling government experience. Prestige? He is recognized as an ATG, holds a record 8 division champion, and will be a first ballot hall of famer.

I think Pacquiao has had a pretty successful career in every definition of the word. The only negative is he has to listen to a hack who hasn't accomlished a 10th of what he has, constantly talking about him

He's made 100s of millions, but where are his symbols of wealth? I'm not saying he didn't make 100s of millions, but he seems not to have done anything outside boxing with his wealth. No companies, promotions, investments...maybe he is not a bling sort of person, but maybe I'm not seeing it from where he lives as you mentioned. Just wish he had more of an impact on the sport like Mayweather and DLH do, promoting fighters....why do we keep getting news on what Mayweather said about a fighter or what he thinks of so and so, and his latest tour of the UK gained a lot of attention here, but we hear little of Pac, unless it's something to bash him with.

A ****hole with less than 10% crime and higher literacy rate than America

Less crime or less reported crime?
Did they test the people living in mud huts?
I'm not from America.

Not with that over $100m tax bill still hanging over his head from the BIR, especially with the IRS going back into his records to audit other years too.

Once he's got to pay back all of that money, especially after "hanging up the gloves", Pacquiao's going to be hoping on the generosity of his friends in the near future (especially if he ends up self-financing a presidential run in the PI).

life's a long game.

mud huts? You must be ancient. It's a modern country now with sky sc****rs and a booming economy. Try leaving your trailer now and again, you might learn something.

He just got a cash advance from Top Rank for his fight with Bradley. I don't understand why he would need and advance.
