After lossing his WBC Junior Middleweight Title to Floyd Mayweather Jr. last May, "The Golden Boy" Oscar De La Hoya will not underestimate Steve "2 pounds" Forbes on Saturday, May 3, 2008. De La Hoya will be heading to his hometown of Los Angeles where he faces the 35-year-old former IBF super featherweight champion Steve Forbes at the The Home Depot Center. This will be his first fight at home since his split decision loss against Shane Mosley in 2000. The Golden Boy will have Floyd Mayweather Sr. in his corner and oddly enough Forbes has worked with Roger as well but will have his brother Jeff Mayweather in his corner. Bet on Oscar De La Hoya at -1700 or Steve Forbes at +900! In the past Oscar De La Hoya has overlooked opponents like the fight against the little-known German middlewight Felix Sturm back in June 2004 right before his clash with middleweight champion Bernard Hopkins. "That's never going to happen again," De La Hoya said. "That's the last thing I want at this stage of my career." He knows Forbes "is coming to fight. It's his dream fight. But for him to beat me it's going to take something special because I'm going to put on a spectacular show." The fight will take place at 150 pounds, 20 lbs. above the weight at which Forbes held the IBF super featherweight title from 2000 to 2002.
