Legendary boxer Oscar De La Hoya made a staggering comment on Instagram today. Commenting on the money hype on a potentially upcoming Floyd Mayweather versus Conor McGregor boxing match, the retired boxer said:
“They are full of sh*t. I stay retired because I made smart moves like owning a MLS soccer team or owning buildings in downtown LA. Oh and don’t forget I own Mayweather’s fight plus Goldenboy is worth $1 billion when I sell. These kids are funny.”
Conor McGregor, whom the Instagram post by Inside Fighting was originally on, also said about Mayweather “He also said he made 100 million to spar the Logan guy he had never made the Forbes list top 100. He hasn’t cleared 20 million in one full year since 2017 when we fought the last time. Otherwise he would have been on the list. He hasn’t made the lessons 2017. In other words he’s full of ****.”
