De La Hoya has golden vision of future (Reuters)

De La Hoya, who won 10 world titles in six weight classes after claiming 1992 Olympic gold at age 19 in Barcelona, believes in “daring to be great” and said hard-hitting Alvarez faces a pivotal opportunity on Nov. 21 against Miguel Cotto. Alvarez, a 25-year-old red-haired, freckle faced Mexican with power in both hands and a 45-1-1 record with 32 knockouts, is taking on veteran Cotto (40-4, 33 knockouts) for the WBC world middleweight title in Las Vegas.
