Long before his name became synonymous with promoting fights, Oscar De La Hoya carved out a reputation for being one of the most fearless boxers, having won world titles in six different weight classes in becoming one of the Sweet Science’s cash kings.
And now, thanks to DAZN’s “From the Vault” section, you can revisit five of the “Golden Boy’s” classic fights in full, including his clash with the oh so disrespectful Ricardo Mayorga in 2006, an epic showdown with Mexican boxing legend Julio Cesar Chavez 10 years prior in 1996 and more.

The win over Mayorga came during the twilight of De La Hoya’s career, as he pummeled the trash-talking Nicaraguan en route to an emphatic sixth-round stoppage.
De La Hoya’s victory over Chavez not only had the Golden Boy taking the torch from the boxing legend, but his WBC and lineal light welterweight titles as well.
Those were just two of De La Hoya’s more noteworthy wins on a career 39-6 record with 30 KOs.
