Edgar Berlanga hit out at Oscar De La Hoya ahead of his Hamzah Sheeraz fight on Saturday.
The tension stems from their recent war of words where Berlanga said he would slap De La Hoya the next time he saw him. De La Hoya urged Berlanga to follow through with the threat, as the pair faced each for the first time since that feud. Berlanga responded by throwing a woman’s wig and underwear at De La Hoya, calling him a “stripper.” The comments were in reference to De La Hoya’s previous leaked photos. Oscar hit by by belittling Berlanga’s accomplishments, reminding him he had no world titles.
“Do you remember this [as Berlanga threw the wig]?,” Berlanga said
“First of all, sit down. You have no world titles. Let me put them on now! I’ve got some right here for you. Listen to me, this guy is not even Puerto Rican! Show me your Puerto Rican passport. I’m more Puerto Rican than you. Your jewellery is as fake as your wins,” De La Hoya
