Oscar De La Hoya says he’s the undisputed star attraction for Saturday night’s megafight against Floyd Mayweather Jr.
Mayweather is the sport’s pound-for-pound king in the eyes of boxing purists ahead of this shuddering collision at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.
But they don’t call Oscar the ‘Golden Boy’ for nothing, and De La Hoya says he’s the man who’ll put most bums on seats this weekend.
In a claim that’s sure to infuriate his opponent, he says Mayweather only brings to the table a paltry 30 per cent of the star quality involved.
