A spectacle outside the ring has boxing enthusiasts riveted, but not for the reasons you might expect. It isn’t a blockbuster match announcement or a thrilling victory that’s capturing headlines. It’s a bitter legal feud embroiling rising star, Ryan Garcia, and his promoter, Golden Boy Promotions, led by legendary boxer Oscar De La Hoya. As accusations of contract violations and unsavory social media exchanges pile up, an unexpected voice has emerged from the ranks.

That voice belongs to Robert Diaz, the former Golden Boy matchmaker. Unveiling a perspective that takes a sharp turn from the public brawling, Diaz’s viewpoint is a surprising reminder of the unspoken rules that govern boxing’s old guard. So, what does Diaz suggest? Here’s a hint: it doesn’t involve a boxing ring or a rowdy crowd.

Robert Diaz’s take on the Ryan Garcia-De La Hoya controversy

In a recent interview with Boxing Social, Robert Diaz shared his perspective on the ongoing feud that has seen public confrontations. Asked about De La Hoya’s contentious social media activity and the brewing lawsuit with Ryan Garcia, Diaz’s response was thoughtful and full of conviction.

The interviewer inquired, “Oscar was putting out tweets etc, you know should we make this fight, the Pacquiao fight. Ryan’s like you know this isn’t in my plans. Why are you doing this? It’s now ended up a lawsuit is happening. What do you make of it? All quite sad to see.”

Diaz responded, “It is you know. It’s unfortunate, it’s part of life, it’s part of boxing. There’s always going to be two sides to every story, but I personally and that’s just my personal opinion, these things that need to be ironed out and taken care of behind closed doors not out publicly. That’s just my personal opinion.”

This unexpected call for discretion adds a fresh layer to the ongoing saga, giving readers a unique perspective into the clash between both the figures.
