Oscar De La Hoya was unimpressed by Canelo Alvarez and Gennady Golovkin's trilogy bout over the weekend, branding the event "a f***ing dud".
The boxing legend used to promote Alvarez, and put on a number of major events featuring the Mexican, including his previous two outings against long-time rival Golovkin. Those bouts ended in a decision victory for Alvarez and a draw, while Saturday night's bout was the most decisive outcome of the series, although the fight was at times a dull affair.
De La Hoya took to Twitter to slam the event in a now-deleted outburst, telling fans that Alvarez "could hold Bernard Hopkins' jock strap". The promoter parted ways with the pound-for-pound great in 2020, with Alvarez instead opting to join up with Eddie Hearn and Matchroom Boxing.
