Canelo Alvarez is distancing himself from the sexual assault allegations levied against his promoter, Oscar De La Hoya … saying, “I don’t want to get involved in his business.”
TMZ Sports broke the story … a woman is suing Oscar claiming he violently sexually assaulted her at his Pasadena home in 2017. Oscar vehemently denies the allegation.
And, since Canelo is a client of Oscar’s Golden Boy Promotions, he was asked by Univision how he feels about the serious allegations against the boxing legend as he gears up for his big Nov. 2 fight against Sergey Kovalev.
“Listen, everyone has their own issues,” Alvarez said (translated from Spanish) … “He’s got his problems, I have mine, and we each take care of our own stuff.”
“He knows how to navigate them, and I don’t want to get involved in his business.”
Alvarez was asked if Oscar’s issues affect him as an athlete, to which Canelo replied — “No. For me, I do things the way I have to do them. It doesn’t affect me at all.”
Canelo was also asked if he had beef with Oscar over the allegations.
“Like I said, everyone’s got their own problems and disagreements. But, at the end of the day, we’re all working and we have to keep going.”
