Wouldn't it be more honorable and financially beneficial to the Phillipines if Manny Pacquiao fights in Manila instead of China?

Fighters fight for money, they go where the promoters get the most.

That is why lots of fights are in Las Vegas.

If the reason you fight is to make money it does not make a lot of sense to take less money to fight in your hometown, rather than make more money fighting some other place.

Its in Bob's plan as he said before of bringing big fights in Asia as it had the most number of people particularly China. He's salivating with the big market you know

Zou Shimming fighting on the card, that's probably why.

His daddy Bob Arum makes all his ddecisions.

knok knok, halerrr, mcfly, anybody home? the huge chinese market TR s been tryin to penetrate? its called business!!!

ikr

More spectators = more money.

That's true, but he probably has his own reasons.
