I was wrong. I looked it up and the reporter did admit he put the verse in the story.It wasn't a misquote as such. It was the actual freelancer that was writing the article that quoted the passage in his piece. Pacquioa never said it.
After the amount of flak he took for saying it when he hadn't I can't see him quoting it now. That's what's making me question how legit this story is.
Maybe I'm giving him more credit than he deserves.
As far as this story this was posted to his personal instagram before it was deleted. I guess they could say it was a person running his instagram and not him. But to say 'nike was right to do what they did but I'm telling the truth" shows he knows it's his last fight and he doesn't care what people think.Comment

If it is legit (and more credible news sources are now reporting it) then a quote has been attributed to him that he didn't say. He's had to come out and publicly denounce it whilst privately he must have been thinking, "Ohhh, now that's pretty ****in' good!"I was wrong. I looked it up and the reporter did admit he put the verse in the story.

This **** storm erupts, he loses his sponsorship and then thinks, "The Leviticas quote! Yes! I'll use that!"
It's likely that he thinks that that quote absolves him of any wrong doing. He has stated on a number of occasions since converting to Evangelical Protestantism that first one should obey the laws of God and only then the laws of man.
There's a good chance that he thinks his Instagram post would be pleasing to The Big Guy and us mere mortals can like it or lump it. Untill one of his advisors have clocked what he's done and asked, "Manny, what the ****!?!"Comment

Thing is he's saying what people want to hear in his home country. His fame isn't going anywhere, dude can live like a king there.Comment
