    That's how they write em. That's why promoters don't want anyone to see them. You wouldn't believe how antiquated some of them are written. I suspect that many of them are hardly ever fully seen the light of day. Promoters will settle out of court before allowing some of their contracts to be adjudicated by a court of law.

      For some reason you really know a lot about Philippine politics and on the ones who are close to Manny in the political field. You lived in the Philippines man?

        I'm half and I have family in Pinas who are both in congress and the Judiciary branch.

        People need to understand something, in Dec 17 the current president (Duterte) has already "annointed" Pacquiao his successor...

        MANILA (PHILIPPINE DAILY INQUIRER/ ASIA NEWS NETWORK) - Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte has said he wants Filipino boxing icon-turned Senator Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao to be his successor. Read more at straitstimes.com. Read more at straitstimes.com.


        Duterte is wildly popular (I don't agree with his Foreign Policy but his domestic politics is working, massive economic growth, corruption is plummeting and crime is at an all time low).

        This forum act's like all Pacquaio has is boxing when in reality hs is already in the next stage in life. He fights now because he wants to not because he needs to.

        If Arum really thinks he can hold Pacquiao , lol try and take him to court. It also didn't help that Pacquiao finally saw how he got screwed with Horn and blames Arum for it (at least that's the word in political circles in the Philippines).

        Will see thou if he actually goes thru with it but Arum is not the power house he once was.

          I'm Filipino also, full blooded. But I live now in abroad. Been keeping close eye in the Philippine politics which is in a massive hysteria (I.C.C, withdrawal from I.C.C, conservative party vs ******* party etc. etc.) but massive economic growth and reduction of criminal crime like you said.

          Never heard of Duterte appointing Pac as successor. Because if that is true, then already Pacquiao is gonna be a puppet president while Duterte (who is the actual controller) works behind. And I think manny would be aware he would be a puppet pres, but would not raise any concerns considering he does it for the good of the country.

            It's not your fault that you are an absolute imbecile. I wish I could help you with that but like I said ... IT. IS. NOT. YOUR. FAULT.

            Even if I was to say TBE was a BUM, he still beat your pinoy idol Pacman. Did he not?
            Did Pac not get Knocked the phuck out by Marquez and a few times in his career?
            Did he not get beat by Horn?
            Did he not fight Brandon Rios or Algieri or Diaz and does he not want to fight Alvarado?

            Your response of stfu just shows your maturity and intelligence level

              he will fight a Top Rank opponent, regardless as to the state of his contract
              Well than case closed. Bob is smart. Manny is dumb. And this is some survival of the fittest in business & Manny is a distance 2nd place to Bob.

              I still contend Manny doesn't have a legit reason to sue Arum. Manny is just sh^tty at hiring people who aren't looking out for his best interests thus gets f#cked in business dealings.

                  I seriously can't be fk'd even talking to someone who would side with a promoter over a fighter..... especially a promoter who is known to be corrupt/greedy/dishonest, and considered by some to be a cancer on the sport

                  and no..... not blah blah, look at all the fights he made

                  if Arum had never existed, those very same fights may have been made even sooner, and under more favorable conditions to the fighter
                  LOL. So legal logic should just be flushed down the toilet cuz promoters are f#cking over fighters with their value due to superior business experience? Thats f#cked up logic although I agree its morally wrong, but if someone will give you 80/20 when you think you should only get 60/40 then I say you are ****** for not taking it.

                  The nature of business is getting as much value out of your investment as you can get. Morality isn't THAT much in play as long as you aren't poisoning the water supply & sh^t like that.

                  I say boxers need to find a Haymon in their lives & forget the "I'm a dumb boxer so I can't be judged on these bad decisions & bad deals I sign" bs. Get someone worthy of you level of talent, not your wife's cousin who got that business associates degree in Junior College with a 3.1 GPA.

                  This is a predatory business no question. But idk that you should help people to help themselves THAT much anywhere in or outside of boxing. That said I wouldn't be opposed to the Ali Act having many more additions to it cuz I believe the current Ali Act is more the Don King Act than a Lets Make This Business Less Predatory Act.

                    Look at the link I posted, he announced it during Pac's birthday last December. Also your comment about being a puppet, highly doubt it simply because that's not how it works once you leave office, Duterte is gonna catch cases left and right from the sandigan bayan(for all the extra judicial killing) once his term is up, if anything this is more a "otang na loob" play for a presidential pardon from the next president.

                      So it's not just that you are in imbecile but English is your third language probably. So let me break it down to you once again ....


                      A BUM has been beating BUMS after BUMS his whole career. Feel free to include TBE on that list but the bottom line is that Manny is a BUM who fights BUM and has neanderthals like you eating that poop up like there is no tomorrow. So take that cookie and deep it in poop and then eat it.
