Recently Zhang (and later Hacon and McKernan as a special case of their work on the Shokurov RC-conjecture) proved that the same conclusion holds for a klt pair $(X,\D)$ such that $-(K_X+\D)$ is big and nef. We prove here a natural generalization of the above result by dropping the nefness assumption. Namely we show that a klt pair $(X,\D)$ such that $-(K_X+\D)$ is big is rationally connected modulo the non-nef locus of $-(K_X+\D)$. This result is a consequence of a more general structure theorem for arbitrary pairs $(X,\D)$ with $-(K_X+\D)$ pseff.Algebraic Geometry14J40text
