The American giant of sporting goods Nike broke its relationship with Manny Pacquiao, over the comments of the Filipino boxer in which he described homosexuals as “worse than animals.”
“We found Manny Pacquiao’s comments aberrant,” Nike said in a statement. “Nike is strongly opposed to any form of discrimination and has a long history of supporting and defending the rights of the LGBT community.”
“We no longer have a relationship with Manny Pacquiao, that’s for sure.” AFP
