Promoter Oscar De La Hoya responds to the harsh criticism leveled at him and his partner in Golden Boy by contender Ryan Garcia: "Bernard [Hopkins] and I have spent decades, putting on the biggest events in the sport, including Ryan Garcia’s last fight, which generated $30 million for him. We build champions, help them navigate their careers to the top and make them the highest paid fighters. Ryan, keep focused on your craft instead of listening to some of your 'team's' interpretations of comments [that were] taken out of context. Bernard and I will remain committed to taking your career to the top." Garcia called De La Hoya and Hopkins liars at the final press conference before Saturday's fight between Garcia and Oscar Duarte. Garcia also believes his promoters are hoping that Duarte beats him on Saturday.
