Michael WoodsHall of Fame fighter and current big-shot promoter Oscar De La Hoya is in the news, because a suit is in play which contains spicy allegations against the 46 year old California resident.
TMZ reported that a woman referred to in court filings as “Jane Doe” told authorities she and Oscar had a consensual relationship, which included sexual relations. She shared that in November 2017, during a session which included the presence of various intoxicants, she suffered bodily and mental injury because of an undesired act was performed upon her.
De La Hoya released on Tuesday morning a release in which he declares his innocent. In the statement, another suit is referred to. That has to do with a contention made by hype-man/radio host Tattoo, who is alleging that De La Hoya caused him duress by asking him to do personal favors for him.

Woods is also an accomplished blow by blow and color man, having done work for Top Rank, DiBella Entertainment, EPIX, and for Facebook Fightnight Live since 2017. He now does work for PROBOX TV, the first truly global boxing network.
