#Oscar de la hoya did not live the best 2020, not only for not being able to return to the ring as I had anticipated from last year, but also to see his relationship with #Saúl ‘#Canelo’ Álvarez is broken. #However, the ‘#Golden #Boy’ maintains the idea of returning to the rings to hold a fight, perhaps against the #Mexican himself, but the rival he really wants is #Floyd #Mayweather #Jr.
#From the pot spoke in an interview for #Fight #Hub TV where he was questioned about if you would like to fight against ‘#Canelo’ Álvarez, who just was nominated for boxer of the year after his resounding victory over #Callum #Smith. The #American accepted that it would be a good challenge, but would rather go for #Mayweather, who is the only one who has managed to beat the tapatío.
“I’ve always prided myself on fighting the best, and why chase the second best? #Why not go after the guy who defeated him? #Why not go after (#Floyd) #Mayweather, for example, in a revenge fight? #That is something very intriguing. #We’ll see how I feel, and then we’ll take it from there, “he said.
#On this date in 2007, #Mayweather defeated #De #La #Hoya in a classic #Cinco #De #Mayo bout.

#From the pot assured that without a doubt he would think of holding a fight before #Canelo#But he would rather go for a “bigger prize”, plus he would like to get the thorn out of when ‘#Money’ snatched the title from him in 2007 with a split decision win.
“#Any fight that you lost or that was close to being won, it is always a thorn that remains nailed“, affirmed the now #American promoter.
The ‘#Golden #Boy’ pointed out that he feels strong to fight again: “I strongly feel that with the way I feel, the way I train and the way things unfold, it could be very interesting,” #De #La #Hoya concluded.
