De la Hoya with wife Millie at the gym in Puerto Rico
Oscar De la Hoya, according to El Nuevo Dia, loves Los Angeles as it is home to his businesses and family, and yes, the great food.
But the six-time world champion also has reasons to love Puerto Rico especially in the last five years.
Of course, his wife, the singer Millie Corretjer who is from Puerto Rico, is the first and foremost, but the list also includes a fruit called in PR called tostones de pana.
Meanwhile, Rey `Boom Boom` Bautista and Alex John Banal, two undefeated fighters who are also training with De la Hoya, continue to look good in training at the Wilfredo Gomez Gym in Guaynabo.
The two fighters see action underneath the De la Hoya-Mayweather super-bout, the record-breaking event in Las Vegas for the last several decades.
