Alvarez, who is falling off a questionable preclusion misfortune against IuriLapicus on April 8 out of ONE on TNT I, sees that a fight against De La Hoya could be conceivable sooner rather than later.

\”Recently, we\’ve been hearing from Oscar De La Hoya\’s guys. Look, I\’m fixated on the ONE Championship belt. I\’m laser, laser-focused on making history and getting my world title, but I feel like there\’s going to be a lull,\” said Alvarez in the ESPN interview.

Yet it very well may be an approach to keep him dynamic and lift his stock in front of a likely battle against lightweight hero Christian Lee, who\’s expecting his first youngster with spouse Katie.

“The champion is going to sit for a little bit. I think he’s having a baby,” said Alvarez.

Even ONE Championship CEO ChatriSityodtong doesn’t mind a boxing match between De La Hoya, a six-division World champion, and Alvarez.

“There is a real possibility. Eddie and I spoke about it when he was in Singapore here. Oscar De La Hoya does want to fight Eddie Alvarez, and I think it would be a barnburner of a fight, and I told Eddie I was supportive. Of course, ONE Championship does have contractual rights, but I’m a big De La Hoya fan, and if he wants to slug it out with Eddie, I’m all for it,” said Sityodtong in an interview with MMA Junkie.

A fight between Alvarez and De La Hoya could see little to no problems in terms of weight.

Alvarez fights in ONE’s 170-pound division while De La Hoya’s heaviest weight class was super middleweight or 168 lbs.

“If that happens, Oscar De La Hoya and them guys have been reaching out, and, hell, I\’d love to get in there and mix it up with him. That would be a hell of a fight. I\’ve got everybody here in Philadelphia backing me,” said Alvarez.

Giannis, Luka, Embiid, Wemby overlooked as Durant hypes Tatum

As the Boston Celtics won vs Phoenix (127 – 112) last March  15, 2024, NBA superstar Kevin Durant hyped Tatum as the one who will control the league for the next 10 or 12 years.

Despite the outstanding performance of Joel Hans Embiid Philadelphia 76ers, Doncic  Luka Mavericks, Giannis Sina Ugo Antetokounmpo Milwaukee Bucks, Victor Wembanyama Spurs and others, Durant still saw Celtic power forward Jayson Christophe Tatum as the best.

Durant said after the Wednesday practice that Tatum is consistent all year and assumed him as the legit candidate.

“Putting up a high number of points. Stats matter when it comes to MVP. His team is winning games, most importantly, by a landslide. The record factors into it. He’s had MVP-caliber seasons the last few years, too. So, it’s just a matter of your narrative at this point.” Durant remarked.
