Great that ODH is trying to get himself clean. I may not like him, but drug addiction is a serious disease. Hopefully this wont adversely affect his children.

I explained this to Canelo and he understood that my health and long term recovery from my disease must come first. Thank you for your understanding. I ask for your support and privacy during this difficult time for me and my family."

Best of luck to Oscar. Addiction can be debilitating.

But why on one of the biggest nights in boxing history?

He obv knows Floyds going to win and is trying to hide the embarrassment that will occur on the 14th.

I had a feeling he was still on the gear! Hopefully this time he sorts himself out.. Strange Move though with the fight this close, you'd assume that his PR team would have delayed making a statement until one maybe two weeks after the fight!

Probably went of the reservation a lot recently. I'm sure both personally and professionally he is faced with a lot of triggers the last couple of weeks as the fight gets closer.

the timing is insane. this would have been the biggest night of oscar's life as a promotor. they probably had to release this statement to explain why he's going to be missing for the fight.

he must have serious issues. he must need to go into rehab / detoxification now. holy f#ck is this sad.
