| Manny Pacquiao sez people are 'alarmed by the truth' about gay marriage |
| 2016-02-19 |
[Guardian] Manny Pacquiao says that he respects Nike's decision to sever ties with him over his comments about gay relationships but remains opposed to same-sex marriage and added he's happy that "a lot of people were alarmed by the truth".
Nike said on Wednesday that it will no longer have any business dealings with the former Filipino world champion, adding that it found his comments "abhorrent." Nike says it strongly opposes any kind of discrimination.
"Whatever decision Nike makes is its decision and I respect that and its sponsorship of me now only involves my clothes for my fight," Pacquiao told reporters on Thursday. "Our contract has already ended aside from sponsoring the boxing." |
