Oscar De La Hoya has voluntarily entered rehab. After some erratic tweets over the past few days, TMZ confirmed that De La Hoya has entered rehab for substance abuse.
De La Hoya issued a statement that reads, “After doing an honest evaluation of myself, I recognize that there are certain issues that I need to work on. Like everyone, I have my flaws, and I do not want to be one of those people that is afraid to admit and address those flaws.
“Throughout my career and my life, I have always met all challenges head-on, and this is no different. I am confident that with the support of my family and friends, I will become a stronger, healthier person.
“I ask for respect and privacy as my family and I go through this process.”
