The pictures of Oscar De La Hoya wearing fishnets, heels, and boxing gloves turned out, alas, to be frauds. The magic of Photoshop, a "model" (ahem, stripper) looking for a quick buck, and an equally desperate and shameless partner, like photo agency X17, was all it took to damage the champ's reputation for life. (Do a Google Image search for the guy; you'll see why.)

Ex-Scores girl Milana Dravel sued the boxer for slander, to the tune of $25 mil, claiming his people tried forcing her to sign an "agreement agreement claiming she could not prove the photos were authentic." Then the photo experts were brought in, and showed the pics to be frauds. Now she's dropping the suit and, once her legal bill arrives, perhaps, just like old times, her top.
