Pacquiao on another controversy..

as i see it , pacquaio's decision is influenced by his desire to earn more money from his fight. he wanted to earn in different ways in each game that he has and trying to close a deal anyone who is willing to offer better pay though he has existing contract with others. yeah, i agree that he seems not to foresee the outcome of those kind of stupid decisions. he is just trying to make himself look foolish in publish by accepting different contract in different companies.

this is only just my opinion. The ABS-CBN tried to get him under ground. I mean, I'm pretty sure, the management of the said network knew of the existing contracts of Pacquiao from Solar and GMA. why did the abs had to make deal with him? Why dint the lawyers of Pacquiao didn't help him to decide on what to do. I mean, maybe Paquiao was offered by ABS more than what the 2 networks had and maybe Paquiao was overwhelmed by it. you can tell just how dirty the network in manipulating people. The best thing Paquiao should do after his fight, is go back to his hometown and don't let the people in manila use him.

I guess it was a decision that Pacquiao has made that didn't consult his lawyers first. I guess he lost in this battle alone. That is why I wouldn't advise him to go and pursue his political plans if as simple as making a move like this he cannot foresee problems would rise to this kind of magnitude. I think network wars did not happen since ABS seems to just dropped just like the Pacquiao did because I think that was a wise move for them to avoid this costly battle.

Manny Pacquiao was ill advised when he decided initially to change network without reviewing his contract with Solar. The root cause is still money. Those people behind him should be very careful next time. He is better a boxer than a politician. I rather advise him to help people in other way rather than be a politician. I want to see in the ring rather than in congress.

I wouldn't put the blame on Manny Pacquiao. I think it's the incompetence of his lawyer that is making a mess Manny's name. Not to insult Manny, but without his lawyer giving him wrong advice, everything will be smooth. Manny Pacquiao may not understand the technicalities. Sad to say his lawyer doesn't either. I think he should ditch his lawyer. He's always been in trouble when that lousy Jeng Gacal came into the picture. Why not hire the Fortun brothers who cane make white from black. Hehe..

What Pacquiao did was really wrong. He don't need to be in ABS-CBN just to be viewed worldwide by other country thru TFC channel. He is already established himself worldwide. Every people know him for being a boxing champ. He should think first before he did that. He have already a lot of money what else he can ask for? Aren't he contented of what he have? I know that its his free will to chose where he wants his fight to be aired because its his face and body that is being hit but i guess being a man with dignity should also be talk about. He signed with GMA and Solar, I think if he wants to move to ABS- CBN again he should finish the contract first. Pacquiao have lots of shows at GMA if he move to ABS-CBN what will he be? Like Angel? There are already lots of people moving to ABS-CBN from GMA but what happened to them? I hope that Manny should not think about the popularity, he should think of the people that idolize him. He is a public person now. He should watch out on whatever decision he will do. Wars between network is up again :-( As for me everytime a person move from GMA to ABS-CBN. I often watch them anymore. I don't know I just dont like the feeling that sometimes they dumped the person. Angel was the star at GMA but to ABS-CBN where is she now???

Hi lockheart! I believed that Manny did not consulted his lawyers when he accepted the offer and eventually announced his transfer to ABS CBN. Only people who don't know that much about laws, particularly not fully understanding the contract they were signing would make this hasten announcement. It just show how greedy a person could be. Have a nice day!

my take on this is that pacquiao is making decisions without thinking about the consequences..whoever his adviser is should see to it that this situation will not happen again or pacquiao's fame will suffer in the long run.. but then,it is not just pacquiao who learned a lesson or two hear.. all of us did,right? i learned that we should make decisions wisely..not greedily. lol!

I don't think it matters on the network. If the networks get into a new war about the telecast of the fight, then let it be. The only thing that matters for me is the actual fight, if Pacman wins then we all be proud of him, again. We all believe in Manny's ability to known-down Hatton, right? So let us all pray for Manny to win and bring home the bacon again...

Hello lockheart! I guess that Pacquiao is getting greedy or ABS is. It would have been a smart move for the network switch since Pacquiao will have more publicity pairing up with ABS. Too bad he really didn't know that contracts are binding and you can't turn your back on 'em just like that. Lesson learned for Pacquiao. Any how whatever networks air it, Filipinos will still watch it of course. Good luck to Pacquiao and may you always have a clear head! We will always cheer on Pacquiao ( at least when he's fighting in the ring!).

He was under contract to begin with, it's not like he can just void it coz he wants to. Whoever advised him to switch networks without checking the validity of the contract Pacquiao signed with Solar, is the real idiot. If it was entirely on Manny? Howell. Cheers lockheart.

Hello Lockheart, well i guess Pacman was really confused about this and he is fickle minded too with regards to decision or probably someone behind him or manipulating him to do such decision. Not unless Abs really lured him about his 2010 campaign that will benefit him if he decides to get Abs for televising his fight on May2. Anyway these fights between two rival channels are always ON, and no matter what, they will still compete each other, i am not switching sides here, but the thing is getting ugly everyday. From surveys to tv sitcoms and series, they always compete. About MP, well i guess his plan for 2010 election is a bad idea, people would be doubting him now for what happened. Happy Mylotting!

I think he was ill-advised. Pacquiao needs to concentrate with his preparations with his fight with Hatton. He already had a contract with Solar Sports. He should stick with that.

Pacquiao, surely did not think hard before trying to jump off with abs-cbn. this is such a disappointment to Filipino fans who expected more from pacquio outside the ring. He didn't even consider the contract that his tied with. Maybe someone should educate him more about legal matters so as to avoid this issued which is in my opinion, ver unprofessional. I hope that he has now learned his lesson well.

Pacquiao's head is being taken advantaged by some powerful people. The problem with Pacquiao, he fail to have that sense of clear-cut decision making. I just wish him the best of luck for his next fight.

lol
