Oscar De La Hoya only recently spent a couple of minutes sounding off on the Canelo vs Crawford promotion, the shortage of any actual drama between the fighters, and Dana White selling the occasion. Right here’s a few of what De La Hoya needed to say under.
“So the ridiculous promotion of Canelo vs Crawford has given me a lot of good ammunition,” De La Hoya started. “First, let’s take it again to final week when this picture was taken of Canelo and Crawford having dinner collectively [with Turki Alalshikh] like they’re greatest buddies?! Like their buddies, like they have been household buddies?!
“I imply, are you able to think about Muhammad Ali or like Joe Frazier having dinner collectively? Are you able to think about Mike Tyson and Mitch Inexperienced earlier than a brawl? What the f-ck. No boxing fan desires to see two fighters having dinner collectively. We wish unhealthy blood, we would like anticipation, we wish to really feel like an precise struggle is about to occur, not f-cking caviar and champagne collectively.
“So after their dinner date collectively, Canelo and Crawford sat on the press tour…Crawford, if you happen to really wish to make Canelo mad, simply inform the reality about him and his tainted meat…And when confronted about his plans, Dana White selected to be the neanderthal that he’s, doding the query [about whether he’d be at this fight or the UFC event] and calling me a douchebag. It’s ironic coming from any person that’s a f-ckin’ strolling billboard for Affliction.”
