No matter what vocation Oscar De La Hoya chooses to be in— he ends up excelling in it. As a boxer, he was a multi-weight champion and as a promoter, he is the CEO of, “Golden boy promotions.” However, as a promoter, he is at the receiving end of scrutiny and criticism a lot more. The majority of the criticism lies in the fact that fighters, under his own promotion, have spoken out against him. Back in 2020, his biggest star, Canelo Alvarez made a bold accusation against him— stating that De La Hoya is not “Loyal.”
History repeated itself earlier this month as his current biggest star, Ryan Garcia is also in a feud with De La Hoya. Although Garcia has not left the promotion officially, he is in a legal battle with Golden Boy over a contractual breach. How do things play out with Garcia and De La Hoya? Only time will tell. However, it is not a good look for De La Hoya to be in a tussle with his own fighter. That being said, De La Hoya continues to run Golden Boy and posted a video on his Twitter account; hinting at his future exciting projects. However, the fans remain concerned and focused on his ongoing tussle with ‘The Flash.’
