The boxing world will once again be transfixed on Oscar De La Hoya this Cinco de Mayo weekend as The Golden Boy makes his “Homecoming†to southern California, and regular HBO, to take on Steve Forbes at the Home Depot Center in Carson, California.

But on Friday night, there are two intriguing cards featuring former amateur stars and rising prospects in what could be challenging fights against arguably the best opponents of their careers. http://fightbeat.com/article_detail.php?AT=633
