Barcelona 1992. Oscar de la Hoya, boxing © Jean-Claude Pichon/L'Équipe August 3, 1992. This 19-year-old kid who promised his mother on his deathbed that he would become an Olympic champion is about to keep his promise. Oscar de la Hoya had just beaten Bulgaria's Toncho Tonchev in the quarter-finals of the lightweight tournament. Five days later, he won the gold medal and the nickname "Golden Boy" against Germany's Marco Rudolph. After a professional career rich in world titles in six weight categories and astronomical bonuses, the American will hang up his gloves in 2009 but he regularly promises a comeback. Single later print. Edition 1/1. Printed on Hahnemühle FineArt Baryta Satin 300g paper. Flamant art frame. 53 X 80 cm
