Oscar De La Hoya Stays Mum on Canelo vs. Munguia: Fight in the Shadows"
The boxing world is buzzing with anticipation over the rumored May 4th clash between undisputed super middleweight champion Canelo Alvarez and Golden Boy fighter Jaime Munguia for Cinco de Mayo. However, promoter Oscar De La Hoya is keeping tight-lipped about the discussions, leaving fans and media in suspense. Recent reports from Salvador Rodriguez and Mike Coppinger have pointed to a confirmed bout between Canelo and Munguia, set to take place at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas and be broadcasted on Amazon Prime and DAZN PPV. Despite the mounting evidence, De La Hoya remains silent on the matter, creating an intriguing air of mystery surrounding the potential matchup. During a media interaction, Oscar acknowledged the speculation but refrained from confirming the fight, stating, "There’s nothing I can say about that literally. I do know Canelo is fighting on Cinco de Mayo. Those are his dates." The notable absence of confirmation from De La Hoya raises questions about the authenticity of the reports and adds an element of uncertainty to the situation. De La Hoya's position in this scenario suggests that he may have been advised not to disclose information, especially given Canelo's shift away from Golden Boy. Munguia, as the B-side opponent, remains in a waiting game for what could be his last chance to secure a bout with the boxing champion. While respecting Canelo's current status as the man in boxing, De La Hoya remains cautious in his statements, emphasizing the need to wait for the fighters themselves to make official announcements. The intrigue surrounding Canelo vs. Munguia continues to grow as fans eagerly await confirmation and details about this potentially blockbuster showdown. #OscarDeLaHoya #CaneloAlvarez #JaimeMunguia #CaneloMunguia #BoxingRumors #CincodeMayo #GoldenBoyPromotions
