In an interview with DAZN, Oscar De La Hoya stated that his first two comeback fights would serve as tune-up bouts for the blockbuster rematch with Floyd Mayweather. If successful in finding his bearings inside the boxing ring, De La Hoya will call out his former rival for another round.
Floyd Mayweather most recently traded blows with YouTuber-turned-boxer Logan Paul in a boxing match under the Showtime banner. De La Hoya believes Mayweather wanted to showcase his striking prowess and decided to take on Paul in an eight-round exhibition bout.
