References in Hajime no Ippo

• In Round 344, after Makunouchi Ippo asked Itagaki Manabu about his goal as a boxer, Itagaki mentioned that he wanted to be a boxer that could compete on the World level, and his specific goal would just be a boxer that kept winning like Ippo or as a foreign boxer like Oscar De La Hoya or Ricardo Lopez.
• In Round 816, after the weigh-in before his match with Ronald Duck, Takamura Mamoru heads to De La Hoya to put on weight for his match after going through a harsh weight control.

Trivia

• David Eagle is modelled from De La Hoya. Eagle's background resembles De La Hoya as they both were Olympic gold medallists and both of their nicknames has "Golden" in it (De La Hoya "Golden Boy"/"Golden" for Eagle).
