To mark Oscar De La Hoya's 43rd birthday we look back at one of his best performances, 10 years ago

Ringside Rewind this week celebrates the birthday of the one and only Oscar De La Hoya.

The 1992 Olympic Gold medallist, six-weight world champion and hugely successful promoter turns 43 on Thursday. 

So we look back to May 2006, and one of the Golden Boy's most impressive performances. 

After a 20-month lay-off following his defeat to Bernard Hopkins, De La Hoya made his hugely anticipated ring return against Nicaraguan wild-man Ricardo Mayorga.
