Some of you youngster's may not know much about Don King. Don King spent 30+ years as a promoter but he was a dominant (Haymon Like...yeah yeah, he's not a promoter...go screw.. he is) promoter in Boxing. His fighters were handed SO many scandalous decisions that it became just a common occurrence that fans had to get used to. Well, we are in the midst of 2018's Don King and his name is Oscar De Lay Holya.

I know some of you think that there's no way that Canelo wins another putrid decision in Vegas because fans won't stand for it. This is the same way that Don King did it though. Just when you think that there's no way he could do it again...he did it again...and again...and again. This criminal built a bank on the backs of fighters sweat and tears and there's no difference between these two in my opinion.

Tonight I feel that Oscar will be turning that corner...if another horrible decision goes in Canelo's favor. Boxing has another REAL problem and his name is Oscar De La Hoya.

He's not worse than all the others, just top-level moneywise! But yeah, he comes across as a sleazy, evil fuckhead! It's everywhere the same! Promoters are 100% corrupting the sport all over the world! All you can do is watch the fights and don't care who get's the decision (it will be the guy with the more money behind him). As soon as there's a tv-contract involved it's anyways an obvious fix! If it just wouldn't be so damn sad for the boxers who sacrifice everything to make it, put their lives on the line just to get gucked up the ass!
