In a pretty interesting turn of events, Golden Boy Promotions head Oscar de la Hoya took to Twitter for a public apology to promotional rival Bob Arum and Arum's top fighter, Manny Pacquiao. Earlier we talked about a possible end to the Top Rank vs Golden Boy war, which prevents many of the top fights out there from happening due to a refusal to co-promote.
de la Hoya is currently in rehab, where he has reportedly been since May 7, dealing with alcohol and cocaine abuse that led to infidelity in his marriage.
Dear bob arum first I would like to humbly apologize for any pain I have caused to you and or your family.I also want to apologize....
The apology continues after the jump.
To manny paquiao for any wrong doing in my part.you are a great champion.I have realized that by accepting my mistakes everyone around me...
Will hopefully forgive me.with great humility I ask we work together for the good of the sport we dearly love.It is not fair to the fans...
And to the fighters.so today let's move forward and put on the best fights possible and show the world what we are capable of doing.
Thank you bob.your friend oscar
