Oscar De La Hoya vs. Manny Pacquiao

29th October 2008 | Category: Las Vegas,Sports | Tags: ,

Oscar De La Hoya was just six years old when he first began to box. “My brother, Joel Jr., put a pair on me and the other pair on one of my cousins,” Oscar recalled.

De La Hoya never pictured himself becoming a fighter. He was always found in the park playing baseball with the other kids.

His first true test of the power in his left hand came in the ’92 Olympics.

He had promised an ill mother, Cecilia, that he would bring back home the gold medal from those Olympics and in his mind there was no question of failing to keep that promise.

He did so, dominating the entire match, in what was the most emotion filled moment of those Olympics.

De La Hoya’s amateur boxing career holds an amazing 223 wins, with 163 knockouts.

Now you have a chance to witness history as De La Hoya fights in what has been billed as the Dream Match.

This ten time world champion will face down MANNY “Pacman” PACQUIAO on Saturday, December 6 at MGM Grand in Las Vegas.

Imagine it!!! Fabulous Las Vegas and De La Hoya too.
