<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Ever since his emergence on the world scene as an Olympic Gold Medalist in 1992, Oscar de la Hoya’s name has been synonymous with Los Angeles, the city that molded him into “The Golden Boy,” a boxing legend. On Saturday, May 3, De La Hoya will face former world champion Steve Forbes, in what will be the first-ever boxing event at The Home Depot Center’s 27,000 seat soccer stadium. The bout will also mark De La Hoya’s return home to fight for the first time in Los Angeles since 2000 as well as his return to HBO’s World Championship Boxing for the first time since 2001. De La Hoya-Forbes is the featured event of a “Homecoming” weekend the likes of which the sport has never seen.. “Homecoming” is presented by Golden Boy Promotions in association with AEG and The Home Depot Center and sponsored by Cazadores, Tecate, Rockstar Energy Drink, Southwest Airlines and Affliction Clothing. The match up will be televised live by HBO’s World Championship Boxing beginning at 10pm ET / 7pm PT.</div>
