Oscar De La Hoya for President
Can you imagine? 
Re: Oscar De La Hoya for President
I can't stand the wanker nowadays. Was a bit of a hero of mine as a kid but I find him insufferable now.

Re: Oscar De La Hoya for President
Likewise.
I pay little to no attention to him at press conferences, having to look at his smug grin and listen to his waffle has become a total drag.
How a muppet like him can run for president is beyond me. Trump pulling it of is one thing, but De La fcuking Hoya, i'd have to leave the planet!
He seems serious about it too, deluded fool, he has absolutely no chance of winning, but he will enjoy the publicity and no doubt that is probably what motivates him.
Re: Oscar De La Hoya for President
Agree with all the above plus his 'ownership' of The Ring effectively ended it as a significant boxing publication.

Re: Oscar De La Hoya for President
I mean he said it the week of one of his major events, probably so that Media that doesn't even cover Boxing would wind up mentioning his fight, and get more eyes on the PPV.ALI wrote: ↑15 Sep 2018, 14:23Likewise.

"Oscar De La Hoya said he's gonna run for President, the promoter of a Big Event that's happening on September 15th said..." blah blah blah.
You know what I mean? Just by mentioning it, it might have brought this weekends fight to the attention of people who might've otherwise not heard about it. Not sure if that worked out or not, but I get the feeling that was probably his intention.
Re: Oscar De La Hoya for President
Hopefully you are right and he announces straight after the fight it was all a big joke to garner publicity for the fight.gilgamesh wrote: ↑15 Sep 2018, 15:01I mean he said it the week of one of his major events, probably so that Media that doesn't even cover Boxing would wind up mentioning his fight, and get more eyes on the PPV.ALI wrote: ↑15 Sep 2018, 14:23Likewise.

On the flip side, he may have taken the opportunity to use the media interest and hype surrounding this fight to give himself a platform to make his announcement, after all he is the type of slime ball that would do such a thing.

Re: Oscar De La Hoya for President
Think those embarrassing pics of him would rule him out of getting very far...
Re: Oscar De La Hoya for President
If it was all a joke or an attempt to get publicity he'll never say so. He just won't run, and the fact that he wasn't serious will be self evident.ALI wrote: ↑15 Sep 2018, 15:21Hopefully you are right and he announces straight after the fight it was all a big joke to garner publicity for the fight.gilgamesh wrote: ↑15 Sep 2018, 15:01I mean he said it the week of one of his major events, probably so that Media that doesn't even cover Boxing would wind up mentioning his fight, and get more eyes on the PPV.ALI wrote: ↑15 Sep 2018, 14:23

Re: Oscar De La Hoya for President
A fighter that a lot of modern day guys could learn from. Never shirked a challenge and always strived to fight the best. He is a prick now but as you say, in his day there was a lot to be admired about him...

De La Hoya has been a drug addict for twenty years... He also has offshore accounts in Sweden... He's got many kids out of wedlock... He sees himself as a Mexican rather than an American... Unflattering pictures of him in womens lingerie... Buys off judges... Etc etc etc...

Trump hasn't fucked up as much as we thought so look for many more eelebs to have a go - biggest stage on the planet - I think it will the US presidency will become more celebrity orientated in the future as now everyone knows they are just a figurehead and the competent people do the real work behind the scenes which is how Trump is still in a job.
It won't be De la Hoya though.
