Dave Bautista calls Pacquiao 'a f---ing idiot' for recent anti-gay comments

Legendary professional boxer Manny Pacquiao was recently dropped by Nike after criticizing same-sex marriage, saying they "make us worse than animals."

World Wrestling Entertainment superstar turned Hollywood actor Dave Bautista got wind of Pacquiao's comments, and expressed his extreme displeasure over the only eight-division champion's remarks.

"My opinion on that is he's a f---ing idiot," Bautista told TMZ Sports, as transcribed by CagesideSeats.com. "My mom happens to be a lesbian so I don't f---ing take that s--t. I don't think it's funny. If anyone called my mother an animal I'd stick my foot in his a--.

"That's his opinion but I'm just saying I don't appreciate it. You can't come back from that, man, there's no coming back from that. I still look up to him as a fighter it's just his personal views."

Pacquiao has since apologized for his comments, although he still stands strongly by his beliefs.
