Golden Boy outshines Campas

OSCAR DE LA HOYA delivered a chilling message to Sugar Shane Mosley ahead of their September 13 rematch when he stopped Mexican Yory Boy Campas in seven rounds to retain his WBC/WBA light-middleweight titles at the Mandalay Bay Casino in Las Vegas.

De La Hoya, who goes by the name The Golden Boy following his gold medal victory at the Barcelona Olympics in 1992, was quickly into his stride with his jab, as Campas walked forward and De La Hoya picked him off at ease.

He caught the judges’ eye with eye-popping combinations, especially in the fifth round when he rocked Campas’ head on a few occasions.
