Oscar De La Hoya criticized UFC president Dana White’s handling of last week’s undisputed super middleweight title fight between Terence “Bud” Crawford and Canelo Álvarez, accusing White of poor promotion practices and attempts to undermine boxing’s media protections.
Speaking via his “Clapback Thursday” social media series, De La Hoya targeted White’s role as a boxing promoter during TKO’s inaugural event at Allegiant Stadium, where Crawford shocked Álvarez to claim the undisputed crown.
