Selected portions from Media Conference Call:

Oscar De La Hoya: In boxing the punch that hurts the most is the one you can't see. We know he's fast but how fast is he at 154? We'll find out on May 5......People are saying speed is a massive factor in this fight but I think people are going to be surprised by how I can match his speed......I actually never had any contact with Floyd Jr prior to the media tour. I didn't know of him, I didn't know what kind of person he is. I only knew what his father would tell me - he's a bad guy, he hangs round with bad people, he's a little brat and he needs to be taught a lesson. I didn't think he was that bad but once I got on the media tour I could understand what he meant......I truly feel that he needs a humbling experience. He really is a little brat. Just the way he comes across. It's very arrogant."
