You're a great one, Oscar."I'm announcing my retirement. . . . When I can't compete at my highest level, it's not fair -- to me, [or] my fans," De La Hoya, 36, said a news conference outside downtown's L.A. Live complex. "Knowing that you're never going to compete again is a tough decision, but now I am looking forward to the future of boxing. When I cannot compete at this level, I have come to the conclusion that it is over."

And, please,please, please let this be true retirement. Not Bret retirement, not Lance retirement, REAL retirement.

When we lived in northern NM, I remember Oscar coming onto the boxing scene - he was quiet the hero to my Hispanic students. Best wishes, Oscar!
The Bret retirement was a nightmare. He looked like a clown.
BB- He did a lot for the Hispanic community. Good boxer. Great guy.
