Oscar De La Hoya was set to make his return to the boxing world in a match against Vitor Belfort on September 11th. Dana White in particular wanted La Hoya to lose badly.
His boxing match against Vitor Belfort was likely one of many matches as Oscar De La Hoya was determined to make a proper comeback. Unfortunately, that match no longer happened after La Hoya revealed he tested positive for COVID-19 and had to be hospitalized.
Oscar De La Hoya would recover a few days later and made it clear that he was raring to get back to the ring. While speaking to TMZ Sports, the boxing legend made it clear that he wants a piece of Floyd Mayweather and offered Mayweather $100 million to make the boxing match happen.
“You know who I’m gonna call out for my next fight? Floyd Mayweather. I’ll offer Floyd Mayweather $100 million.”
Floyd Mayweather beat La Hoya the last time the two crossed paths, so we will have to wait and see if La Hoya will have a better chance the next time the two clash.
