Oscar De La Hoya is basking in a moment of vindication. The longtime UFC antagonist and boxing promoter couldn’t resist piling on after the mixed martial arts giant became entangled in a betting controversy that has reportedly drawn FBI involvement.
Suspicious Betting Activity at UFC Vegas 110
The uproar began with the Isaac Dulgarian vs. Yadier Del Valle fight at UFC Vegas 110. Dulgarian, a heavy betting favorite, saw his odds plummet dramatically shortly before the fight. When Dulgarian delivered a strangely tentative performance, social media erupted with accusations of fight-fixing.
According to reports, the UFC contacted the FBI following the event to assist with an inquiry into potential corruption within betting markets.
