The American apparel giant said Wednesday that it will no longer have any business dealings with the Filipino boxing champion, adding that it found his comments ''abhorrent.'' Nike says it strongly opposes any kind of discrimination. ''Whatever decision Nike makes is its decision and I respect that and its sponsorship of me now only involves my clothes for my fight,'' Pacquiao told reporters during a break in his training for an April 9 bout with Timothy Bradley in Las Vegas. The Bible-quoting Pacquiao, 37, has become an active Christian in recent years and has publicly declared his opposition to same-sex unions.
