De la Hoya: Mayweather vs Alvarez rematch could be a $1.5 billion battle

According to Oscar De La Hoya, promoter of the WBA and WBC middleweight champion Saul Alvarez, his client is serious about his rematch with Floyd Mayweather. De la Hoya believes that Floyd has over a billion reasons for this to happen.

“Firstly, Floyd ended his career, so there will be no fight. But if Floyd really wants to return, he must stop fighting the fighters, who are two weight categories smaller than him. If Mayweather decides to return, his battle with Canelo could be a $1.5 billion battle,” Oscar said.

“I would like to have the opportunity to revenge for my defeat. But if this does not happen, I will continue my journey and write my own history,” noted Alvarez.
