Chaos Erupts Between Oscar De La Hoya and Canelo Alvarez

Looks like there is no mending the relationship between Canelo Alvarez and Oscar De La Hoya after their explosive press conference on Wednesday. Golden Boy promoted Alvarez for 10 years, ending their relationship in 2020.

De La Hoya made it a point to let Alvarez know who helped shaped his career. “I would be remiss if I didn’t respond to the man I used to promote,” De La Hoya said, in part. “He seems to have trouble remembering who helped him become a true global star. To be clear, I have nothing but respect for Canelo Álvarez as a fighter. His record and abilities speak for themselves, but he has spent much of the last two months insulting me, rather than promoting this fight … The company you fought under for decades has always had one name, and it’s mine. So put some f***ing respect on it.”
