Comments Thread For: Arum Supports Nike's Position To Drop Manny Pacquiao

[The plunger man]

Unfortunately when ur in a position of power certain things should be toned down...being a senator and congressman and a devout religious man.....all life on Earth is equal and blah blah blah ....then you say things like that then the hammer of justce will fall on you and your be cast out into the wilderness.....do I disagree with what pacquaio said....no I don't ....should he have been a bit more wiser with his words yes.....animals is the word that got him...he could have just said I don't believe in ****sexuality and same sex marriage and that's my belief...then it would not be happening ....chutney ferreting is immoral and I don't belive in gay marriage.....but being in a position of power you have to be a bit more diplomatic.....but look that c@nt Donald trump and the way he has been behaving and saying things...about disabled people and banning people because there religion....the mans a demon and yet he's could be running for the USA presidency ....scary thought......as for arum if I was pacquaio I would not put one more penny in that mans pocket and I would just say I reinjured my shoulder and walk away from him....he's A demonic person that arum

A perfect example of "keep sht to yourself"...They were right to drop him, the weird thing is the mofo has a bunch of people who used to hate him now loving him for the comment. Pacquaio really fked up and it'll probably become the biggest thing he's known for in terms of his relevance to pop culture.

Wow thats freaking funny. so we live as we are free to have our own opinions and freedom of speech, but yet if we dont mean the same as you , then there are suddenly rules after all. Thank you Manny for saying it as it is! and **** you nike. you where a cheap brand anyway.

Bob arum the hypocrite!

[Eff Pandas]

Oh **** Manny. You know you dun f#cked up when a 80 something ******* like Arum is telling you your comments are out of touch.

Also f#ck Arum. I feel like if Manny wasn't retiring Arum would spin the hell outta these comments, but since Manny is looking to retire Arum just throws a rock at him instead of backing up his long time guy. Hope Manny keeps boxing for a big fight or two, but leaves TR to do it now.

And also also this is why we can't have nice things. Even the good guy boxer doesn't know enough to keep a PC angle with **** like this which probably says a lot about why boxers don't get endorsements as often as maybe they should. Too many boxers always saying silly **** when they might be better served to just stfu & give the Sugar Ray or Oscar PC answer.

Yes you do have the right to your own opinion and freedom of speech and others have the right to disagree with it.

They didn't terminate him, he's still alive. I would be totally with you if they sent some bad ass death squad to the Philippines and terminated him. That would be horrible.

But, they simply released him from a contract because he said something controversial in public, which is something put in most endorsement contracts. He's not the first celebrity to loose an endorsement for an unpopular opinion, and he won't be the last.

,

if that is not a clause in the contract and if contract are bound by equal opportunity laws...then i'd still go after them...and i hope he does..bc nobody should put a gag on his religion...
bc if gays start bashing christians nobody will care

[tiliheels]

Nobody is stopping him from voicing his opinion, looks like you believe people shouldn't have the right to disagree with him.

shouldnt have the right to take food out of ppls mouths bc they voice their beliefs...not just manny..me and you as well..im not a manny fan..him and bob have been full of **** to me...just throwing that out there
