Comments Thread For: Arum: If PPV Does Over 600K Buys, Pacquiao Makes Big Bucks

[icha]

pac screwed again...

[HURTFEELINGS]

If Pac made $150 mill from the Mayweather fight, you can chop that almost in half due to taxes.

$75 mill - Bob's 27% fee = $56 million

He has to pay for his training camp, including Freddie and his entourage. I don't know how his purse is taxed in the Philippines, but Pacquiao was already in tax troubles both there and here in the U.S.

It can get swallowed up quickly.

YEAH, didnt he owe almost 70 million in taxes alone, he's still digging out of the red...He's gonna be broke the rest of his life Spider Rico working for Floyd in Vegas...

Wow Manny Pacquaio is a slave.

[HanzGruber]

loll whats their purses?

[al-Xander]

Arum lies in the opposite direction when it comes to PPV as compared to Schaefer who inflates PPV results. Go figure why Arum would rather say it did 800K instead of 1.5 mil, for example.

What is this guy smoking?

Sucks to see an ATG still fighting for money cause he needs it.

Needs More Money?

You caught that too, a year later, and he already needs more money...His career is gonna end badly in the ring, because Arum knows manny needs money, so why not use him and this information. He's using this fight to get manny an easy KO to drum up some action for another crack at Floyd, or use manny fo make crawford a bigger star. BUT DAMN, HE NEEDS MONEY ALREADY? Bob is gonna loan him some money and the only way pac can pay him back is by...fighting whoever Bob tells him. And if he "reportedly needs the money" after 1 year after ALL of the money he made vs Floyd, this money he gets isnt gonna last him long at all.

These are the types of things that happen when a fighter has a large entourage. (Mainy leeches) Pacquiao also seems to be too generous for his own good. I can understand wanting to help out the people in your home land but one must draw the line. If the shoe was on the other foot, who would help him?

You Are Right

Wow Manny Pacquaio is a slave.

It was Floyd Mayweather who mentioned that Manny signed a slave contract. Floyd got accused of hating. People hate the truth.

This fight wont go over 100,000
