Blackwillow 2,200 Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 We told you it was comin' ... and now Nike has made it official -- Manny Pacquiao has been FIRED over his anti-gay comments. Nike issued a statement saying, "We find Manny Pacquiao's comments abhorrent." "Nike strongly opposes discrimination of any kind and has a long history of supporting and standing up for the rights of the LGBT community." "We no longer have a relationship with Manny Pacquiao." http://www.tmz.com/2016/02/17/manny-...-fired-by-nike Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PartySick 161,505 Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Woooooooow It's a shame. I like Manny, he's a great guy who's always worked hard and given his best but thanks to his religious background just doesn't have a high respect for gay people having sex. Just goes to show, even the best people can have some bigotry inside them. Kudos to Nike for following through with being an ally, though You're stinky Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quartz 12,553 Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 LOL he is a dumbass. But he's eventually gonna run for Philippine senate and he WILL win. The poor and uneducated are the majority of the voters here and they are really prone to stupid and ignorant decisions. God, thoughts like these make me wish for a non-democratic government. Sorry for being off topic a bit by the way Inside, we are really made the same. 🕊 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaMaisonGaga 23,884 Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 It's a shame to see that. One of my idols Liane Valenzuela once worked out with him and I thought he was a cool guy. Well **** that I guess lamaisongaga.com Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GloZell Green 11,723 Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 I thought he was a great person who worked up to where they are. Now I don't, homophobia basically kills any or most respect I have for a person. Good job Nike, we don't need bigots Lady Gaga | Shakira Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hola Soraya 4,357 Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 It looks like dropping spokespeople is the thing! But seriously though props to Nike for not tolerating homophobia! ¿Tú me estás hablando en inglés? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
What About Us 1,499 Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Wow, I didn't know this. I'm glad Nike fired him though because at first, I thought he was a great person. I don't tolerate homophobia. Promise I'll always be there. Promise I'll be the cure. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JGD 12,042 Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 And to think that I supported him throughout all his fights. Well, I was already aware that his religious beliefs sparked some bigotry in him and didn't support LGBT rights, but this is the final straw. Manny, I hope you lose your final match before retiring from boxing. Oh, and I also hope you don't win the upcoming election. But seeing how politics is really corrupted in the Philippines, you probably will. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
