Famed boxer Evander Holyfield shocked Big Brother UK viewers when he claimed that being gay "ain't normal," when another cast member asked about gay boxers. He then added that gay people can "be fixed," to which his co-star respectfully declined.
"What would be good about it? That ain't normal. It is a choice, come on, that ain't the way nobody is made. If you were born and your leg were turned this way, what do you do, you go to the doctor and get it fixed back, right? All I'm trying to say, you know handicap people are born, you can't say because they are born that way you can't fix them."
The comments stirred up backlash on Twitter, with fans bashing the champion athlete, saying that his comments were unacceptable. Check out what people are saying in the above slide:
