    Why is oscar de la hoya so much hated right now ?

    I mean, ok he talks much **** sometimes.

    but he was a great fighter, he took on the best fighters, and only lost two the best.
    I was great for boxing, and as a promoter his still good for boxing.

      I like him as a fighter. Just aint no need to talk about him right now.

      If you look at it though he hasn't won a meaningful fight in a while...

      Fighting once or twice a year doesn't work.

        many fans are pissed when he chose to fight manny instead of margarito. he made them even more angrier when he made the cheesy excuse that it was personal why he chose manny.

          Not really...they were upset he picked to fight a smaller man. Not that he aint fight Margarito. DLH makes more $ in a Pacquiao fight and that's Oscar's main priority.

              People are upset with him because he talks too much. He always tries to spin stories in Golden Boys favor. Take Manny Pac for example. Oscar keeps showing up on t.v. trying to get the Mosley-Pacman fight but Manny doesn't want to fight another Golden Boy Productions fighter again. I believe his last three or four opponents Pac has faced have been from Golden Boy. He keeps hyping his stable of fighters up but they just let you down when the going gets tough, i.e. Victor Ortiz. They price themselves out of fights by lowballing opponents i.e. Tomasz Adamek. Is just constant bull**** by GBP this year and it needs to turn around or Oscar will lose more respect from true fans.

                I'm a big fan of the fighter but i don't like the man. He seems like a hypocrit mother****er who's a fake nice guy. He's a selfish and avaricious man who only cares about getting money out of the people he's working with. I mean the guy adviced Ricky Hatton to continue whereas he's pretty much done as a fighter, and think we're ****** enough to listen to him when he says "Marquez's style will beat Mayweather."

                  Business Ethic is the reason DLH has lost popularity...
                  The fans money became more important than the fans themselves...
                  That's why he got owned in most of his last fights...
                  Promoters should stay out the ring Period....

                    That is the simple answer.

                    Can't really "hate" on the guy. He's accomplished much in a sport that's payed him very well. He fought many of the top fighters. Won many and lost some. And now he's creating a boxing dynasty and leaving a legacy as a promoter.

                    But the real answer is:

                    He's a handsome dude with mad money and a hot wife who likes to wear fishnets and high heels on occasion.

                    You gotta let some **** slide sometimes when you're that good.
