Canelo Tells Oscar De La Hoya To Go “F— Himself”!
It appears that the love between Canelo Alvarez and Oscar De La Hoya has died because Mexico’s top boxer just told De La Hoya to fcuk himself.
CelebnSports247.com reports that the bad blood between Oscar De La Hoya and Canelo Alvarez continues to boil over in the public eye.
In a recent Instagram video post, Alvarez is seen teaching a young fighter a few tricks inside the ring, but The Golden Boy Promotions head honcho had to take a jab.
The Instagram post from an account called Supreme Boxing reads:
@la_amenaza01 receiving the gift of knowledge from the best PRP fighter, Canelo. He’s teaching him how to hit your opponent when he is tired and how to feint from a distance[.] Thoughts?
De La Hoya responded to the post in the comment section with a bald-faced retort, claiming that Alvarez (56-1-2, 38 KOs) was not only a technically deficient fighter but that he is also ducking current 154-pound champion Jermell Charlo (34-1, 18 KOS).
Oscar said:
Please, this guy does everything wrong, head up when he throws hooks, on his heels, flat-footed. What else? Oh, he avoids @twincharlo…
Alvarez quickly responded:
@oscardelahoya do me a favor and go f— yourself!
Alvarez also added to his response a slew of emojis including a spoon, frying pan with an egg, hammer, and two knives¬
It was a dig De La Hoya who was reported to have been involved in a sex scandal involving kitchen utensils.
Charlo also chipped his two cents into the flurry, apparently siding with Alvarez.
He accused De La Hoya of reneging on a promise he made back in 2014 for him to fight Alvarez and shamed him for attacking a fellow Mexican.
Listen [I don’t know] if @OscarDeLaHoya lying or not, but in 2014 he promised me or @KingGabRosado the winner get @Canelo..I Won, but he ended up fighting Kirkland, @OscarDeLaHoya Gotta sick again, HOW DO U GO AGAINST YOUR OWN COUNTRYMAN Viva Mexico!!!
The sudden jibe from De La Hoya was probably prompted by some terse comments Alvarez made about the ex-promoter in an extended interview with Graham Bensinger on Besinger’s Youtube channel in April.
Alvarez said at the time:
[De La Hoya] doesn’t do anything in Golden Boy…He’s worried about drinking and being involved in other things.
Canelo and De La Hoya History:
As Alvarez ascended to superstardom under De La Hoya’s care, the pair were seemingly inseparable for the past decade.
But the two had a nasty fallout last year that culminated with Alvarez suing De La Hoya. They ended up settling and parting ways. Alvarez is now a free agent but has worked with promoter Eddie Hearn on his last couple of fights.
Alvarez is coming off a banner win over Billy Joe Saunders on May 8 at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas that saw him unify the WBC, WBA, and WBO super middleweight titles.
