“He was paid more than Oscar paid the entire f*cking fight card,” Dana White rips Oscar De La Hoya after obtaining a copy of pay sheets from Golden Boy Promotion
Dana White and Oscar De La Hoya
The UFC president Dana White and former boxing legend, Oscar De La Hoya got engaged with each other in a heated exchange after De La Hoya suggested to the UFC Featherweight champion, Alexander Volkanovski that he is getting underpaid after securing a win against Brian Ortega at UFC 266.
Oscar De La Hoya tweeted, “Hey Alexander Volkanovski, you just won a brutal battle for UFC and made 1/20 of what you’re worth, Dana White, have some f*cking respect for yourself and these fighters and pay these warriors what they deserve.”
Dana White didn’t take much time to share response and slammed him with a series of tweets. The UFC president took it a step further and displayed in front of the media that De La Hoya was lying about paying his fighters more money than UFC.
In the press conference of Dana White’s contender series 41, White shared a fiery response to Oscar De La Hoya saying, “I said it to De La Hoya yesterday, and I’ll say it to him again. He accomplished a lot of great things in boxing. Outside of the ring, the guy’s an absolute f*cking loser,”
“He’s a liar and many other things, and I can’t tell you – maybe you can tell – how much I despise this human being, but that’s the only reason that I’m even f*cking doing this. This is it. This is the last time. I’m not going at it again.”
“Volkanovski got paid more to wear his UFC Venum kit than Oscar De La Hoya paid the entire f*cking fight card,” claims Dana White
The UFC president Dana White brought the copies of the pay sheet of June from the Golden Boy Promotion of the fight card that was held in California and distributed it to the media. White says,
“I brought one because it’s June 9, 2021. OK, this was a fight that just happened in June. It’s a Golden Boy Promotions fight that this d*ckhead put on, OK? There were nine fights, 18 fighters.”
“The total purses paid for every fight was $36,500. Total. The average purse per fighter is $2,000 on a Golden Boy-De La Hoya card.”
White continued, “He’s concerned about Alexander Volkanovski. OK, before we pay $1 in f*cking purse money, right, Volkanovski got paid more to wear his UFC Venum kit than Oscar De La Hoya paid the entire f*cking fight card. Do you understand what I’m saying?”
“To walk out with the Venum fight kit on, he was paid more than Oscar paid the entire f*cking fight card. I could go on, but I think we all get the f*cking point: He’s a liar.”
As per reports, Volkanovski received an amount of $42,000 in the UFC promotional guidelines pay of 266. With Dana White exposing De La Hoya’s fighter pay, let’s see in which direction this feud will go now.
