Boxing icon Oscar De La Hoya has certainly made a name for himself not just in the ring but also in the world of business and social media. He has amassed quite a following with his lavish posts that showcase his opulent lifestyle and ventures. But in a recent social media post, the legendary boxer was in a state of complete and utter relaxation, as he nonchalantly lounges on a luxuriously appointed yacht, basking in the warm, welcoming glow of the radiant sun.

But what caught the attention of many fans was the caption that accompanied the photo.

While the fight has been highly anticipated, it was De La Hoya’s physique that drew the most attention.
