People love to laugh at Oscar nowadays, Dana White takes shots at him , but they truly don't understand how BIG of a deal and how good Oscar was, he was incredible in the ring an all time great! He was also the first boxer with a "pop Star" like following, the Ricky Martin of boxing. Now hearing all the stuff he went through is heartbreaking to hear, being that young and famous must be extremely overwhelming and scary, I'm delighted to see him alive and telling his story 🎉

@@fmcdomerYaya ur cool we know
@@iamcomanche9184 sounds like we found the person who loves it
@@fmcdomer you win bro chill
No one puts him down about his boxing resume, his critics came after his retirement
It’s really nice to see everyone has the same struggles and for them to come forward instead of pretending to be perfect. Need more of this
Everyone needs healing.
I have 99 struggles but wearing boxing gloves and fish nets isn’t one of them. But I see what you’re saying it’s true we all have trauma and obstacles to overcome and learn from
It's nice to see but sad at the same time
No real man, would make his mother look bad. Yes, she whoop his ass, that's normal in our culture. It gives us character, passion and ethics. The problem is that she didn't whoop his ass enough. He became a soft chavala talking bad about his mom, que mamon. Pocos guevos, poco hombre.
@@isaiahlopez7112I’m Glad he’s being Honest about Everything! It takes Great Courage to look Himself in the mirror & be Honest! No Child deserves the Abuse, he Experienced @ the hand of his Mother! Remember the saying, “The truth will set you free.” These are His Truths! I Hope & Pray that you’ll Respect His Truths b/c he Lived Them, Not you!🙏🏾💕
Oscar de la Hoya lost his mom from cancer when he was young. I don't listen to nobody's accusations or jokes about Oscar de la Hoya. This man is a real champion.🏆👑
🐠🥅
@@Thats-What-We-Dewwwww😂😂😭🤣🤣
He hated her all his life tho
You don't listen to criticism because his mum died when he was young? Makes sense 😂
@@cooperman8850 - I'm growing in my life and I'm trying to learn not to Judge others, and I'm trying to avoid gossip. We all done shady stuff in our lives, there's no point to think about another person so hard unless I'm saying a prayer towards them. 🙏🧠
Oscar was my favourite fighter ever growing up, kinda like my hero ...
I've ridden the roller-coaster of being a fan of Oscars.
After watching this interview, I'm even more of a fan.
This version of public honesty makes him even more genuine.
No one is a golden boy, but this is as close to providing a good example of what a golden boy is (being a thousand percent honest) .
Genuinely proud of you Oscar.
You're once again my hero.
This was so good! Raw and uncut. He looks like he's in a good place. Great interview
Ariel is a HELL of journalist, his interviews, questions, his flow, his tempo is perfect! its the perfect balance. so easy to enjoy his shows . it doesn't feel forced . its a real treat man. Thank you Ariel for being nothing like the rest.
He’s also incredible at toe-ing the line between asking tough questions and offending the guest.
In his prime he was the man, one of the greatest of all time
Every legend deserves to tell the truth life is hard especially for less fortunate
For all his faults, Oscar comes across as genuine and kind.
Everybody got faults but how you come out of it is all that matters
@@lightsoutsal1050Wow so inspirational 😐
Growing up he was my favorite fighter. I was afraid of meeting him cause sometimes your heros arent what you think they are. Met him at the canelo vs Mayweather press conference. He signed my glove and even spoke for a bit. Great guy
I was such a fan boy all the way back here from Portugal. Boxing wasn't even covered here. I still am a fan. What a fighter!!!
Oscar is an American icon. Good for boxing and now good for humanity. God bless him.
Respect to Oscar for telling the truth. People who looks Down on him never faced any Challenge such as addiction. Dont listen to then Oscar. They are usually kids on tiktok or People who never faced any Challenge
Respect cause Oscar was a monster back in the day.
Generational trauma being passed down over and over. 😢 Happy healing Oscar.
Oscar carried boxing from the late 90s and mid 2000s. You're a champion Oscar. F the haters
Dana's going to love this lmao
😂😂😂😂
Dana literally cannot say anything since he abused his wife and takes steroids. No one in life is perfect my guy.
Good for him 👏. It's never too late to fix your life
Oscar's answer to Ariel's final question.. "are you sober now?" Was a bummer. I felt like it's someone saying "I don't have a problem, I can quit any time I want" like it was the fault of others. And .. well.. maybe that's the case and I've simply seen too many people fall, big and small. I hope the dude is happy and healthy for the rest of his life.
Yup but then when he said life is about Balance. That’s a fact.
@@pops3287he's clear he's still using substances by his answer. He thinks he has it under control. Like most addicts do.
@spenceabroad7960 but there are people that smoke weed, drink alcohol and even beyond and are still civilized and can function properly in society and in my opinion he's managed that balance of some party and play but also WORK.
@@pops3287 yeah maybe he has it under control. Who knows? At least he has the finances to check himself into rehab whenever he feels like it I guess.
@spenceabroad7960 only time will tell
As a Hispanic, It's nice to see him finally be free from his trauma, good for him
As very much not an Oscar fan it is impossible to not respect him in this interview. I grew up watching this dude and just wasn’t a fan because it all felt fake and media driven. Always respected the skill but didn’t respect the man. That changed today. Kudos to you champ and I hope you get all your flowers while you’re here
MASSIVE W FOR OSCAR... he's been getting beat up the last few years.
Not what I expected for the rep this guy gets. I’ll have to check this out. Beautiful thing for someone to embrace their mistakes and struggles and joust shove it in the face of the people that pretend like they’re not human and don’t make mistakes.
Great interview, can’t wait for the Documentary to drop.
It’s still nothing but respect for The Golden Boy! This man is a legend in the sport of boxing!
Imagine if everyone on earth told the truth and forgave each other, and everyone agreed to start with a clean slate? Thats what heaven must be like. Forgiven and accepted
Like your sentiment. But wouldn't last more than a minute.
Just to consider it is worth something 🙂
The first step to being forgiven is accepting your mistakes and feelings remorseful and apologizing and guess what? Most people are not humble enough to accept they messed up…
Great interview and insight despite what everyone might think of him
We all think he's one of the best. Dudes was and is a beast 😊 true living legend
@@ramonbriones4487a living legend when he was a fighter. Dudes a big skier now hitting the slopes ❄️ 😂
Dana's best friend
@@jackblack4654 He was never my Friend - Dana
@@0akland510grow up with parents that never tell you they love you and try not to do drugs. I can’t imagine how painful that is. We don’t know the half of what he’s been through
I watched Oscar since the Olympics because I was a prize fighter myself also an amateur so I was a big fan of Oscar, Trinidad, Michael carbajal, Tapia, ayala alot of great fighter's in 90's watching these guys mad respect to all of them.
Wow, this is great for Oscar to unload his burdens and help others see, that everyone has their challenges in life. I did a similar thing in my last live show. It's good to reflect and unload.
24:23 kinda wild he said his girlfriend of 2 years is going to be his legacy and not any of his 6 kids…
Those are things that drug users and ex drug users say because they get obsessed easily. That is why recovering drug addicts sometimes seem SUPER obsessed with religion or exercise or philosophy. For the moment, it is his girlfriend of two years.
@@Mr-E. that’s exactly right
That "are you sober now" question through him off. He didn't lie in his answer but if you know alcohol and drugs then those closest to him(his family) probably still feel concern about his drinking.
The face of boxing.
Nope
The face of Coke
@@mmaasphalt2285dana this you?
Ariel's doing well but he's not the face yet
@@wassupjg definitely the nose 👃
awesome insight into a legend of boxing. I can't wait for the documentary
Nice interview. I always rooted for you oscar, glad you found your peace.
32:55 is the reason Ariel Helwani is the best 😂
Lmao can’t believe he asked that, and Oscar said no 🤦🏾♂️
Are you sober now? Noooo, life is balance haha 😂
Oscar was like: “Sober now?”👁️👄👁️
@@jubran91Ariel knows he’s not sober at that very second 😂
@@bcs7776-ty 🤣🤣🤣
My favorite boxer growing up. The GOAT
Great and insightful interview. Really hate it when the audio is not in sync with the video.
The golden boy was my favorite fighter as a kid!!!
I can relate to what happened to Oscar with his mother. Because the same happened to me. And I am also a middle child. It's crazy.
U wear fishnets too?
I love this !!! Great great interview so much honesty 💯💯💯
Loved watching him fight..
looking forward to watching the documentary..
What a genuine man. We all have dirt in our past, except some don't admit it or do the work to repair harm. If only the people that bash him humbled themselves like he did.
You realized he just told a bold face lie in this interview that is easily refutable? He said his paternal grandpa ran with Pancho Villa, but his paternal grandpa was a young boxer in the 40s, and Pancho Villa died in 1923, so that is 100% a lie. He probably lied about a lot of stuff in this interview that we have no way of verifying if he was wiling to lie about something so stupid.
I haven't seen the documentary yet but for Oscar to own his mistakes openly, no excuses is HUGE. Good on him.
I could tell he's still hitting the bottle probably more than he should based on his physique so hopefully that doesnt set back his personal work. It must be hard being wealthy but it's just not worth the damage it does physically/ spiritually etc.
Man had a wrong and stupid opinion ,feel like i got to apologize .. I cant even imagine how difficult it is to go through these type of things being young and overwhelmed with people .. I never really thought about it. Respect 🙏
🫂
Damn, this was such a eye opener man, I would have supported this guy if would have treated his fighters better like Ryan and all the others but nobody can take his greatness away
Ryan got 30 mill out of that fight .. hows that treating him bad..Ryan's team agreed to a ridiculous contract ..blame them
CRYan is always whining about something. He never takes accountability! He signed a contract…Period!
I wish him the best, but without mental health therapy and him not being sober, I find it incredibly hard to get past those inner demons. I know from experience.
Great interview!
My all-time favorite boxer and a great guy.
Oscar is a great despite all the hate he gets and he never ducked anybody
Ariel, You are amazing!!! Great interview!!! You and Oscar took off the Gloves off on this episode!!! Your questions are Brilliant!!! Thank you both for shining the light on the truth.
amazing interview
One of the most genuine interviews ever
wow!I had the same experience as a child with my mother I remember like it happened yesterday the moment that the biting didn't hurt anymore.
Wow didn't expect this , the pix issue,cool he's honest ,you can tell he's been conditioned to lie and he wants to just be set free of it. I was unaware of the doc coming up. This is good to see,he's not had it easy in some ways. This may make him a better person which is awesome. He was one of the baddest dudes when I was growing up. For a guy in undies he would never back down and in his prime,a beast. Man.
Oscar has become a national treasure, good man. We need more people like him. Always nice, humble, kind, polite, down to earth and a gentleman. Gonna watch his documentary series.
He doesn’t care about his fighters
@@gypsymahala9252 Its business crybaby
Before Oscar signed Ryan he was a nobody fighting in Tijuana Golden Boy has invested tons of money on Ryan and all they want is a return of their investment Ryan should man up finish out what he sined up for and move on The 3 years he has left with Golden Boy will go in a flash
@@gypsymahala9252 Are there any promoters out there that actually care about their fighters?!?
@@alcottdevalte7440 eddie hearn seems solid
@gypsymahala9252 He's a charmer. Clearly it's working on you.
I admire your courage and honesty. Good for you
great interview..
Wow! Great interview, was not expecting him to be so open. I mean its Haymon, Bob then him in that order when it comes to American promoters. Will definitely check out that Doc though for sure!
He did discover Ryan Garcia ! I remember seeing Ryan Garcia at orange show swap meet in 2012
This was fantastic!
Def watching this💯
I like that he said its not like im doing great its a work in progress but im doing good.....I felt that
Educational and insightful this interview was.
Oscar trippin with the whole “my girl is going to be my legacy” smh 🤦🏽♂️
Bro right ??? I was like forget about your kids I see!? 😂
Yep that was weird
Great to see these interviews watching the side of his face
Great interview! Golden boy!!!^^👊👊👊
Oscar was a amazing fighter.good to see hom doing well. If you can get rid of your addictions you will be much happier
Great interview I was waiting for that question." Do you still have beef with Dana?"😂 lol
If you listen really closely all his truth telling and noble kick is still all about him. It's therapeutic for him - no matter what he puts out.
Agreed, just another way to feed the ego. My favorite quote is, "Humility, when you think you have it, you've lost it"
I don’t get the point of any of this…. Nobody really needs to know or hear any of this. It’s a money grab and a cry for attention.
Also love how he studders when he asks are you sober now hahha
This is raw. I love this matured De La Hoya who keeps it 100
It must be lovely being so naive
Oscar was a star back in the day 🙏🏿
The Golden Boy … Respect 🫡
The golden beta
Back in 1998, I got his autograph and I patted him on the shoulder. I'll never forget his shoulder was solid like a rock.
OMG ROFL for 24:36 to 24:48 Pure Ariel Helwani Gold LOL
Good for him, I relate
Oscar in his prime was phenomenal
Much respect to that champion for all he has achieved
You can still see how bitter he is about Eddie, “ let me do my job in the US and you stay in the U.K. “ - you can see he is a threat to his business and his ego is hurting big time….
Wow. This is awe inspiring.
Boy, to say I’m not an addict, it was just out of control… I just needed someone to love me…. Yikes 😳 I don’t know if that sounds healthy. For sure he’s doing better. I don’t want to end on a negative note.
“Who knows how to Love me back” powerful!
What platform can I watch this Oscar documentary?
14:25 Oscar got me dead 😂
Dana White opp #1 and #2.
He is lookin like my picture right now
I went through similar outcomes like him and lots of other Hispanic people it's sad but we Spanish strong regardless.
Bro in the 90s this man was out boxing anyone who stood in his way. Even the loss to Mayweather was controversial because of how good Oscar boxed. Retirement and the things he’s been through just had him spiral out of control but it looks like he’s finding himself again. Ill always have love for this man 🇺🇸🇲🇽
Bro nobody thought those photos were fake 😂 👠🥊
Love Oscar!!
While watching right now, 7-20-23, the audio and video are outta sync. Question: why?
And when they are talking, their lips don't always match the voices.
Something's odd, maybe for the sake of people's privacy, but no matter what De la Hoya is fantastic, badass honest, and more of a hero now. Muchisimas gracias por ser un natural, bien vivo.
Mas que nunca, ahorrita nos sirve una olla de gracia, forma continual, esperanza...y la sapienza que somos unidos, cada de nosotros.
El pasado no ha ido, se nos presenta opciones de cantar nuestras historias y futuros.
Gracias a usted y todos en este documentario. Me da placer tener la oportunidad ver lo. Gracias a ti, Oscar De la Hoya...inspiracional.
And the truth shall set you free
Classic Interview!
The last question though 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I appreciate the truth Oscar, hopefully one day I'll have the honor of meeting you both. Waiting for your call Ariel, 😉
LOVE OR HATE HIM HIS A LEGENDARY BOXER ONE OF THE GREATEST....................
good interview. Oscar is awesome
HES ALL GROWN UP ITS ABOUT TIME!
Love Oscar De La Hoya!!! Congratulations Oscar,,, Ariel Helwani perfect interview . . .
Generational trauma will only be understood by someone that has gone through it. It leaves a lasting mark and void that is carried into adulthood.I understand why Óscar having millions of dollars and fame still feels empty. May God bless you Óscar and help you heal and fill that void in a healthy way and away from drugs.
Oscar: my girlfriend is my legacy
Six kids: have left the chat. 😅
great interview feels like a redemption arc
