There's one moment with my mother that sticks out in my mind... She was battling cancer. She'd already had chemotherapy and her hair was falling out. I was walking home from high school. My mother was sitting on the front porch with the radio on. She was singing a song called 'Noah, Noah' by a Latin singer named Juan Gabriel. I started singing and dancing with her, and I could see that she was happy despite the pain. That was a very special moment for me. That's the best memory I have of my mother. - Oscar De La Hoya

But I think as days go by, it's going to get worse. And it's bad, but obviously we're going to hold our ground. We're not going to be intimidated by nobody, especially not Bob Arum. - Oscar De La Hoya

To step inside that ring, you have to have guts. - Oscar De La Hoya
