Boxing icon, Oscar De La Hoya dances wearing only thong with his girlfriend (video)

Boxing icon, Oscar De La Hoya has been caught up in a social media controversy after posting a video of him and his partner dancing, while he wore only a thong.

De La Hoya took to Instagram to share a video of himself dancing with his partner Holly Sonders in what has been described by Spanish outlet Marca as ‘a sexual boogie’.

Sonders is filmed in underwear, while De La Hoya is wearing nothing but a leopard print thong as the two dance together to Spanish-language song Loca People by Sak Noel.

The video quickly went viral and was taken down by Instagram after many users reported it.

De La Hoya was not impressed by the action taken by Instagram, insisting that his ‘enemies’ were responsible for reporting the video.

‘I just got banned. My last post was really funny and the haters reported it. They hate to see me happy,’ he said on social media.

Sonders added: ‘We both posted a funny video an hour ago,’ Sonders, 37, wrote in a post on her Instagram Story. ‘It got taken down on both our accounts due to lames reporting it.

‘Oscar’s had 6000 comments in 30 minutes. I guess some ppl really hate to see us having fun. The good news … we will be back tomorrow with more.’

Sonders appeared to take aim at Instagram after the clip was taken down, with a post that read: ‘IG takes down all my content that isn’t covered head to toe… so here you go. I’ll play within their guidelines for a day.

‘And if you’re one of the salty ones, rest assured that will be back with more thong vids this week cuz we are staying in Mexicoooo. ALWAYS HAVE FUN FRIENDS.’

She then followed that up with another video, captioned: ‘Thanks for tuning into our LIVE! And for making our ridiculous go insanely viral as one of the most viewed of 2024! Send me some more ideas for our next video… Oscar has some ideas already.’
