Dana White’s press event to promote Canelo Alvarez vs. Terence Crawford was dripping with lame sauce.
That comes according to boxing legend Oscar De La Hoya, who was unenthused with the “staged” nature of the event. The former 11-time world champion vented his frustration during a recent appearance on The Ariel Helwani Show, saying:
“The press conferences were freaking lame! Because it was all staged. If you want to see Canelo pissed off, take a look at my press conference with Munguia and Canelo—that’s Canelo pissed off!”
Canelo and De La Hoya had to be pulled apart after getting into a viral exchange while promoting Alvarez’s May 2024 fight against Jaime Munguía.
