Upon hearing about his rival’s recent troubles, Dana White launched into what promises to be one of his signature tirades targeting Oscar De La Hoya.<\/p>\n
The famed boxer turned promoter\u2019s company, Golden Boy Promotions, is reportedly facing foreclosure after defaulting on a loan connected to its downtown Los Angeles offices. Out of a $27 million commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS) loan for the 150,000-square-foot building, around $23 million remains unpaid.<\/p>\n
Clearly amused by this development, White dredged up some notorious photos of De La Hoya to mock the embattled promoter. He labeled Golden Boy Promotions\u2014a direct competitor to White\u2019s Zuffa Boxing\u2014as a \u201csinking ship\u201d and ridiculed the former champion.<\/p>\n
While tuning into tonight\u2019s Zuffa Boxing event at the Meta Apex in Las Vegas, White took a moment to join social media influencer Nina Drama\u2019s live Kickstream broadcast. The two chatted briefly before White launched into one of his harshest attacks yet on De La Hoya, who has long been his adversary.<\/p>\n
When asked about Eddie Hearn, with whom White maintains a relatively cordial relationship, he quickly shifted focus to De La Hoya\u2019s recent difficulties and his PR team\u2019s public struggles.<\/p>\n
White gleefully commented, \u201cOscar is on a sinking ship and won\u2019t stop talking. This guy\u2019s good-looking, but soon he\u2019ll have to strip down to panties and stockings and start an OnlyFans to pay the rent. My son\u2019s running out of money, the ship\u2019s going down fast, and you keep chatting through it all… Is that what you want? Put your pants and fishnets back on and pay me the $23 million you owe. Talk to me later \u2014 goodbye.\u201d<\/p>\n
It\u2019s important to note the report specifies Golden Boy Promotions\u2014not De La Hoya personally\u2014as the entity defaulting on the loan. Confusion may stem from De La Hoya\u2019s boxing nickname \u201cGolden Boy\u201d and his majority ownership of the company.<\/p>\n
White\u2019s reference to fishnet stockings harkens back to a 2007 scandal in which photos of De La Hoya dressed in fishnets, tutus, and high heels were leaked. Initially claimed to be doctored, the photos were eventually confirmed genuine by De La Hoya four years later.<\/p>\n
