De La Hoya has not been accepted by Mexican boxing fans as a great Mexican boxers many hate him and refuse to watch his fights. The main reason so many Mexicans and Mexican Americans don't like him is because he beat the greatest Mexican boxer of all time Julio Cesar Chavez. Not only did he just win both of the fights that they had but he made Julio's corner stop the fight. Oscar is a great role model for many young Mexican American since he is the 4th best boxer of all boxing history. He has also made it possible for Mexican and Mexican American families to have hospitals and schools in East Los Angeles where he is from and in different parts of LA. Even though he is not accepted by Mexicans and some Mexican Americans for his victory over Julio he has given his people lots of things and continues to help young Mexican/Mexican Americans be succesful. Oscar is also helping Mexican fighters in Mexico since he is a promotor and the biggest and youngest promoter in boxing history. The way that he is helping them out is that he is paying them more than any other promoter and giving them contract that guarentees them and there families a pay check. The way that he does this is that he keeps the fighter for a certain amount of fights weather they lose them all. This just shows that he not only is a great role model in the ring but also in his personal life.

Yo,
Oscar has done many things for hiscommunity and I give him props for that. A lot of people wouldn't do that much for their own community after making it big, but he did because he wanted to help his people. He did several good deeds that the people from L.A. should thank him instead of giving him a boot. He is different from the rest, but I still wouldn't cheer for him in a fight. Julio was an awesome fighter, but his time came to retire he was just getting older. Mexicans are very proud of boxing and when a newbie come in an hands it to him ain't not one going to acept it. Go Julio Cesar Chavez!!!
