Oscar de la Hoya withdraws from comeback bout as he fights COVID-19 infection
https://abc7.com/oscar-de-la-hoya-covid-vitor-belfort-evander-holyfield/10996793/LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- Oscar de la Hoya has tested positive for COVID-19 and will not fight Vitor Belfort next weekend.
De la Hoya had planned a comeback to the ring with a fight on Sept. 11 at Staples Center after more than a decade away.
But the boxer posted a video to Instagram from his hospital bed, saying even though he's been vaccinated he is struggling with a COVID-19 infection.
"What are the chances of me getting COVID?" he says in the video. "I've been taking care of myself. This really, really kicked my ass."
