     Oscar established himself early in the fourth round landing a hard overhand right followed up by a left hook. Mayorga came back with a couple of haymakers that partially landed, but once again, late in the round, De la Hoya landed a solid counter left hook, which knocked Mayorga off balance.

     Mayorga actually started well early in round six landing a few decent shots early, until Oscar unleashed a six punch combo that mercifully dropped Mayorga. Mayorga beat the count and Oscar jumped on him ferociously winging left and rights upstairs.

     After the fight, Oscar had plenty to say, especially about Winky Wright, Floyd Mayweather, Jr., and Antonio Margarito, who were present at the post-fight press conference. For his potential September 16th date, Oscar mentioned Floyd Jr. as a possible foe, but mentioned Winky and Antonio Margarito as possibilities.  

     As far as the fight went, Oscar said he felt rusty for the first minute, but then his jab took over. He felt his focus and his jab were the keys to winning the fight. He further said that he would have to sit down with Floyd Mayweather Sr. before taking a potential fight with Junior. After the fight Oscar also said that he told Mayorga he forgave him for all he said, and that Mayorga told him that he is a true champion. He further stated, referring to Mayorga, "he got my blood boiling, and that's what I needed and I'm glad he talked." Oscar took questions from Wright and Margarito and answered them both diplomatically leaving his options open for September 16th.
