Oscar De La Hoya misses Ryan Garcia's walkout due to mix-up

Oscar De La Hoya did not attend Ryan Garcia's walkout at the Zuffa Boxing event on September 12 at T-Mobile Arena, where Garcia faced Conor Benn. Garcia had invited De La Hoya to participate but expressed disappointment at his absence after winning the fight by knockout in the second round. Jane Murcia, director of Golden Boy Promotions, stated that a miscommunication led De La Hoya to believe he was no longer needed because Garcia changed his mind about the walkout arrangement. Instead, Garcia walked out with musician Marco Antonio Barrera and WWE legend Rey Mysterio. The incident highlights the complexities of fight-day logistics in boxing.
