Boxing Quote by Oscar De La Hoya

“By the time I retire, I will have fought the best. I will have made my money. Maybe I'll be a boxing commentator. I'll go back to school, definitely. I already have a plan. My life's set. I'll be on an island, married, playing golf in the sun. That will be my life.” quote by Oscar De La Hoya — Download Open image
