(EXCLUSIVE) Oscar De La Hoya & Bernard Hopkins Sue Mayweather’s Adviser Over Illegal Tactics

De La Hoya and Hopkins claim Haymon is attempting to illegally drive them out of the business and have him and his powerful backers control the whole boxing circle. They accuse him of violating the law by acting as both and even cites Mayweather’s fight with Pacquaio where Haymon acted as a promoter despite never being licensed.

De La Hoya explains Haymon and his team attempted to buy up Golden Boy Promotions but he refused due to their illegal antics. Due to them not being able to buy up Golden Boy, the former boxer says they have now refused to allow their long list of boxers from signing on with any promoter besides them.

Goldenboy and De La Hoya have filed suit against Haymon for his actions and are demanding the court order an injunction against Haymon’s illegal business activity. See the exclusive court docs.
