Nike drops Manny Pacquiao in wake of anti-gay statements
By Tim Dahlberg (Associated Press) | Updated February 18, 2016 - 8:27am


Manny Pacquiao's latest disparaging comments about gays have cost him a contract with Nike.

It may not be the only endorsement Pacquiao loses, even as he and promoter Bob Arum scramble to contain the damage done by a television interview in the Philippines in which the boxer said gay people "are worse than animals."

"What he's saying is diametrically opposed to what I believe," said Arum, who is promoting Pacquiao's upcoming fight with Timothy Bradley. "I'm in favor of gay rights and same sex marriage. I'm apologetic personally to the gay movement in the United States."

Nike issued a brief statement Wednesday saying it was severing its ties with the boxer over his comments about gays. The company said it no longer will have any business dealings with the boxer.

"We find Manny Pacquiao's comments abhorrent," the statement said. "Nike strongly opposes discrimination of any kind and has a long history of supporting and standing up for the rights of the LGBT community."

Pacquiao, a congressman who is now running for Senate in the Philippines, made the comments to a television station that was asking candidates about their views on same sex marriage.

"It's just common sense," Pacquiao said in the remarks posted online by the TV5 network. "Have you seen any animal having male-to-male or female-to-female relations?"

Animals, he said, were better because they recognize gender differences, and "if you have male-to-male or female-to-female (relationships), then people are worse than animals."

Pacquiao's remarks were criticized by several Filipino celebrities, and he responded by issuing an apology of sorts. In it, Pacquiao said he was still against same sex marriage but loved all people.

Arum told The Associated Press that Pacquiao is an evangelical Christian who believes that homosexuality is wrong, and that he was trying to win votes in the Philippines, where the issue of same sex marriage has not been decided.

"What he said is completely for home consumption for Filipinos wrestling with the question of legalizing same sex marriage," Arum said.

In addition to his campaign for the Senate, Pacquiao is currently training for the April 9 fight in Las Vegas against Bradley in what he says will be his last bout. Arum said he could lose some other fight sponsors because of the remarks.

Pacquiao has not fought since losing to Floyd Mayweather Jr. last May in the richest fight ever. Pacquiao reportedly made more than $100 million for the fight, and is guaranteed $20 million to fight Bradley.

Arum said he expects some people not to buy the fight on pay-per-view because of the comments, but that others might buy it because of them.

"Instead of promoting a fight with a fighter I'm promoting a fight with a politician," Arum said. "It's like of Donald Trump was a boxer and I was promoting Donald Trump when he was running for president. I would be killed by the media for all the stupid statements he is making."

It's not the first time Pacquiao has been involved in a furor over gay rights. In 2012 he was quoted as saying he was against same sex marriage because "It's the law of God" though he denied inferring that homosexuals should be put to death.

The eight-time champion is the Philippines' most famous person and the country's most popular athlete. He has represented the Sarangani province in the Philippines' House of Representatives since May 2010, though has drawn criticism for seldom showing up for legislative duties.

Polls in the Philippines show he is a strong contender for the Senate seat, which many believe will eventually lead him to seek the country's presidency.

John 3:16-18 ESV
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son (Jesus Christ), that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.

Philippine church defends Manny Pacquiao on gay marriage stance
AFP
21 hours ago


The Philippine Catholic church on Sunday defended boxing hero Manny Pacquiao for his opposition to gay marriage, saying he was only quoting the Bible.

But Father Jerome Secillano also said over radio station DZMM that Pacquiao should respect homosexuals and not judge and condemn them after the eight-division world champion last week described them as worse than animals.

Pacquiao, 37, who converted from Catholicism to an evangelical Protestant faith late in his boxing career, was pilloried by local gay rights groups and celebrities and has lost lucrative commercial endorsements as a result.

Secillano, executive secretary of the Catholic bishops' public affairs office, said: "This is really in the Bible. There is this quote he (Pacquiao) uses from the Bible and we cannot change that."

He said it was "unfair" to condemn Pacquiao for echoing what he reads in the Bible when he was asked about same-sex marriage.

But Secillano also said the boxing hero should not have used such offensive language.

"The church... says that if this is your lifestyle, if this is your orientation, then we respect that, we cannot condemn them," the priest said.

He reiterated that the Catholic church, which counts 80 percent of Filipinos as followers, still opposed legalisation of same-sex marriage.

Church influence has also kept divorce and abortion from being legalised in the Philippines.

However homosexuality is not criminalised and several LGBT figures have become celebrities.

“Let see the scatter”
LABTIK Ni Alan Domingo (Banat) | Updated February 22, 2016 - 12:00am


Maapektohan ba ang boto ni Manny Pacquiao sa kontrobersiyal niya nga pamahayag nga gikasuko sa LGBT community? Aduna ba sab kaha’y LGBT vote? Kini ang mga pangutana nga matubag human unya sa piniliay diin dinhi makita ang katag sa engkuwentro ni Pacman ug sa mga miyembro sa LGBT.

Sa pagka-self righteous ni Manny, wala na niya makontrol ang mga pulong nga migawas sa iyang baba diin gipanag-ing niya sa hayop ang mga binuhatan o homosexual act nga nakapaulbo sa kasuko sa mga LGBT members kinsa hugtanon nga mikondenar ni Pacman.

Nangayo na og pasaylo si Manny apan gibarugan niya ang iyang prinsipyo batok sa same sex marriage. Giangkon ni Pacquiao nga nasayop siya sa paggamit sa hayop sa iyang pagtandi, apan gitataw niini nga ang binuhatan lang nga ang pagpakighilawas sa kapareho nga lalaki ug kapareho nga babaye ang iyang gipuntariya nga gibase niya sa Bibliya. Bisan pa man niini, wala gihapon mahuwasi sa kasuko ang mga kontra ni Pacman ug nanawagan nga dili siya botaran sa umaabot piniliay. Ang foul words ni Pacman gibaslan sa iyang mga kritiko og mas grabe nga insulto sa iyang pagkatawo, lakip na ang iyang pamilya giapil pa.

Usa ka lady broadcaster ang mura’g nakamenos nga nangutana kang Manny kun mag-senador ba siya o mag-pastor? Apan nasupalpal kini sa tubag ni Pacman nga imposible nga magmalampuson ang usa ka nasud kun wala’y giya gikan sa Ginoo.

Nakapunto niini si Manny sanglit mas maayo kun ang mga nanglingkod sa puwesto sa kagamhanan mga alagad sa Ginoo kay sigurado nga mapapas na ang kurapsiyon ug uban pa nga mga tinonto sa gobiyerno.

Ang nakaparat sa uban, mosaka dayon ang kilay kun adunay mga tawo nga magsige og hisgot sa pulong sa Bibliya kay mas palabihon nga mamati sa ilang mga idolo nga artista nga pulos binastos ug panaway ang mogawas sa baba.
