Manny Pacquiao's promoters, Bob Arum, said that the Filipino boxer will probably never fight in the United States (U.S.) again, because of the amount of taxes imposed too much.
Pacquiao's next fight is set on 23 November 2013 in Macau, China, against former world lightweight champion, Brandon Rios. Macau chosen because in addition to the potential, as well because of taxes imposed by local governments is not too much like as in the U.S.
"By fighting abroad, as he did in this fight against Rios, Manny did not have to pay taxes in the U.S. anymore, due to foreign athletes be increased to 40 percent," Arum said, as reported by the Los Angeles Times.
"If the pay-per-view is produced, and the other things running without any problems as we expected, I can not imagine Pacquiao will never fight in the U.S. again," he said.
Arum said the fight pay-per-view in China could bring in USD 10 million to USD 20 million. Profits are necessarily much greater than if Pac Man playing in the U.S.. Money that goes into the pockets of Arum also growing.
"It changes everything. Would it work? We saw in November," he concluded.
