——–
Boxer Victor Ortiz opened up about his highly publicized fight with Floyd Mayweather, which raked in a staggering $78 million in revenue. Despite the substantial earnings, Ortiz only received $3 million—significantly less than Mayweather. He shared his thoughts on the rematch opportunities he missed and expressed disappointment over the lack of reliable support from those around him during that time. At the time of the fight, Ortiz was associated with Golden Boy Promotions, headed by Oscar De La Hoya. He conveyed mixed feelings regarding De La Hoya, recalling a public apology made by him at a golf event. Ortiz maintained his respect for De La Hoya despite their past challenges. The discussion lightened up when Vlad asked about De La Hoya’s notorious lingerie photos. Ortiz humorously acknowledged that De La Hoya “works out,” and made it clear that he had no part in the photos being leaked.
