OSCAR DELA HOYA: Boxing = Life

“I grew up in East LA. Life is a struggle but it defined me; it made me who I am. My father kept me focused; my mother was my inspiration—I’ll never forget that. This is where I learned to fight: for myself; for my family; for those who need someone to believe in—like I did. I came from humble beginnings but through the sports I loved, I can give back. I’m living the American dream. ‘Estoy viviendo el sueño Americano.’ I am Oscar Dela Hoya, and boxing is my life.”
