    Oscar is really involved with all of his little ethnic pet projects...people can bash him all they want...but there aint another boxer out there that does as much for his people as Oscar does.

    Not one.
    Lamon Brewster and Ann Wolfe!
    Not a bad point that,Ann's killing herself trying to keep her community gymn open,and shes really helping to get kids off the streets,and out of trouble
    Yeah I know and it's a very sad story No one in the media covers her on that though

    As I already stated in me other post...there are other boxers that do outreach & programs of the sort but Oscar is hands down one of the most active & spend thrifty out of our current bunch of champions.
    Never beg a 40 dollar hooker...specially after she's just turned down your mom's credit card!!

    Again...I didn't say that there weren't others doing things...I simply stated that Oscar is doing the most with his money.

    Brewster & Wolfe? Puh-fwockin-leeze!!!

    I guess to be fair to you, not many who have stood in the presence of the Golden One remain unnaffected, his divina aura is I imagine pretty spellbinding.

    Did he transfigure in front of your eyes? He looks like he's in some sort of trance and his face seems to be glowing.

    Shame you didn't stick around with him a bit longer, John the Baptist and Moses would have probably turned up, that would have made for a great photo for your collection.

    Funny thing is they were there it's just that ODLH I mean Jesus did not allow them to have their pictures taken.

    Probably just as well mate, the contrast on your camera was probably already stretched to its limits by trying to duplicate the full glow of Oscar's tan, if there would have been any more orange in the picture it would have broke your camera, not to mention your eyes.

    By the way I think I've worked out why you need to wear sunglasses.

    As Moses fellowshipped with God, His face began to glow with the radiance of God's glory. When he returned to speak with the Israelites, they saw this glow and became afraid.

    "When Moses came down from Mount Sinai with the two tablets of the Testimony in his hands, he was not aware that his face was radiant because he had spoken with the LORD. When Aaron and all the Israelites saw Moses, his face was radiant, and they were afraid to come near him. But Moses called to them; so Aaron and all the leaders of the community came back to him, and he spoke to them. Afterward all the Israelites came near him, and he gave them all the commands the LORD had given him on Mount Sinai.

    When Moses finished speaking to them, he put a veil over his face. But whenever he entered the LORD's presence to speak with him, he removed the veil until he came out. And when he came out and told the Israelites what he had been commanded, they saw that his face was radiant. Then Moses would put the veil back over his face until he went in to speak with the LORD." Exodus 34:29-35


    Is that what happened with your eyes? Do they glow all the time now seeing as they have looked upon the glory of the Golden One?

    All the time.

    Did he pay for the building of it? Well, even if he didn't it's an inspirational name and I wouldn't mind if my child attended that school. Unless it's smack in the middle of a "rough 'em up" neighborhood.

    If it's a latino area it should be named after a respectful lantino figure. That's my opinion. I'm not talking Big Pun High or J-Lo Elementary.

    he donated land and $1,000,000 to start the project and has donated more as the project went along. his Oscar De la hoya foundation supports many scholarships and financial aid programs the school offers.
    "Very few people really understand what it means to be a fighter. I hate it when I hear someone say, 'That fighter doesn't have guts. I hate that, I don't care if you're a world champion six times over or a four-round fighter, to step inside that ring, you have to have guts" Oscar De La Hoya
