Boxing promoter and six-division champion Oscar De La Hoya has become the talk of the combat sports world after coming out with a “brand new” body. The 49-year-old recently came out and revealed his brand-new six-pack abs, which was certainly uncommon for a person his age.
This also sparked speculation among fans who were quick to give their opinion on his physique. Moreover, many even claimed that De La Hoya had abs surgically implanted which was later confirmed by De La Hoya himself. Despite ‘Golden Boy’ coming out clean about his abs, former UFC middleweight champion Luke Rockhold was quick to troll De La Hoya’s fake abs.

The former middleweight champion took to Instagram and shared a hilarious video of a tattoo artist promoting abdominal tattoos. Moreover, in the video, people can be seen getting various designs crafted on their abdominal muscles. In addition, Rockhold used this to make fun of De La Hoya, claiming he found the boxer’s doctor. “Found De La Hoya’s Doc,” he wrote alongside the video.

This was proved after he posted shirtless trying to promote Ryan Garcia vs Gervonta Davis fight. However, many in the MMA community have also called him out for this, including Joe Rogan who compared his abs to controversial influencer ‘The Liver King’.

In a recent episode of his podcast along with guest Belal Muhammad, Rogan commented on De La Hoya’s abs. Moreover, he stated that the former boxer’s arms and chest didn’t match his abs making him look unnatural. “The thing is his abs don’t match his chest or arms. Look how defined his abs are they’re evenly sitting there. It’s like the Liver King, it’s fully tight,” he said.
The Liver King was recently under fire after he was exposed by YouTuber MPMD about his PED usage. In addition, he was forced to issue a public apology after this scandal which might not be the case for De La Hoya as he is very transparent about his abs. Moreover, with him not competing professionally, the decision was entirely up to him.
