Moving up to Junior Middleweight
After hiring Floyd Mayweather Sr. to be his trainer, De La Hoya fought as a welterweight once more, defeating Arturo Gatti (TKO 5); he then moved up to junior middleweight, challenging the Spanish WBC junior middleweight champion Javier Castillejo.

Shane Mosley
In 2000 De La Hoya's stock had not fallen very much despite his loss to Trinidad. In June he faced explosive former world lightweight champion Shane Mosley who he had lost to as an amateur. "Sugar" Shane Mosley (born September 7, 1971) is a boxer from Pomona California. Mosley, utilising tremendous hand speed and power, won a 12-round split decision over De La Hoya in Los Angeles to claim the WBC welterweight title and unofficial moniker of pound-for-pound king. Los Angeles (lɑˈsændʒələs los ˈaŋxeles in Spanish) is the largest City in the state of California and the American West A 2003 rematch resulted in another loss for De La Hoya, which was disputed by many. According to Compubox, De La Hoya landed 221 of 616 (36%) total punches to 127 of 496 (26%) for Mosley. [10]
Victor Conte, the founder of Bay Area Laboratory Co-Operative (BALCO), has since accused Mosley of knowingly taking performance enhancing drugs prior to the 2003 bout against De La Hoya. Victor Conte is the founder and president of Bay Area Laboratory Co-operative (BALCO a controversial sports nutrition center in Burlingame, California The Bay Area Laboratory Co-Operative also known as BALCO was an American company led by founder and owner Victor Conte.

The Los Angeles Times (also known as the LA Times) is a daily Newspaper published in Los Angeles California and distributed Jeff Novitzky, a lead investigator on the BALCO case, reported that document seized from the lab show that Mosley received "the clear" and "the cream", both designer steroids. Jeff Novitzky is a Special agent for the Internal Revenue Service who has been investigating the use of steroids in professional sports for over five years "The cream" is a Testosterone -based ointment that is used in conjunction with Anabolic steroids such as Tetrahydrogestrinone (THG also known Mosley maintains that he believed the products he was using from BALCO were legal vitamins and is suing Conte for libel. [11][12] In May 2008, Mosley's former trainer, Derryl Hudson, supported Conte's allegations against Mosley. In a declaration that was used in Conte's motion to have the lawsuit dismissed, Hudson wrote, "I know that Mr. Mosley was aware that the performance-enhancing drugs provided to him by Mr. Conte were banned drugs because I discussed that fact with Mr. Mosley both during and after our visit to BALCO," [13]
Rivalry with Vargas
De La Hoya did not fight for the next 15 months, and in this time the rivalry between him and WBA junior middleweight champion "Ferocious" Fernando Vargas grew. Fernando Vargas (born December 7, 1977) is a former American boxer and two-time world champion who won a bronze medal as an amateur at the 1995 They knew each other as amateurs and it is rumored that the rivalry began when Vargas was angered by De La Hoya laughing at him after he fell into a snowbank. Vargas called out De La Hoya for many years but Oscar said he would never fight him. Eventually however, Vargas's trash talking made De La Hoya take the fight. The fight was originally scheduled for early 2002, but De La Hoya had to withdraw because of a hand injury.
The unification bout, labeled "Bad Blood", finally took place on September 14, 2002, at the Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas. Events 81 - Domitian becomes Emperor of the Roman Empire upon the death of his brother Titus. See also 2002 (disambiguation Year 2002 ( MMII) was a Common year starting on Tuesday of the Gregorian calendar.

For the first six rounds, the fight was even, with Vargas landing punches along the ropes in the odd rounds, while De La Hoya outboxed him in the even rounds. De La Hoya took over the fight in the seventh round, and hurt Vargas with a left hook in the tenth. Then in the next round, De La Hoya knocked him down with a left hook, and stopped him moments later. The win is widely considered to be the biggest win of De La Hoya's career. Vargas later tested positive for stanozolol after the fight.
De La Hoya then defended his unified title against Yori Boy Campas (KO 6), before facing Shane Mosley in a rematch. Luis Ramón Campas (born August 6, 1971, Mexico) is a Mexican boxer who was the IBF world Jr The rematch, billed as "Retribution" and staged at the MGM Grand Garden Arena, was much more of a boxing match than their first match, and many rounds were close, but many were still shocked when Mosley won a close unanmious decision, with all judges scoring the bout 115-113 in his favor.
Moving up to Middleweight
De la Hoya next challenged Felix Sturm for the WBO world middleweight title on June 5, 2004.

De La Hoya-Hopkins
De la Hoya then challenged for the WBC, WBA, and IBF middleweight championship and unsuccessfully defended his WBO title against modern legend Bernard Hopkins, then universally considered the number one pound-for-pound fighter in the world, on September 18, 2004 in Las Vegas. Bernard "The Executioner" Hopkins (born January 15, 1965, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) is an American boxer Although the fight was fought at a catchweight of 157 pounds, many thought De La Hoya was way too small for the weight class and Hopkins was considered a heavy favorite.
Despite the odds and the fact that he was fighting with a cut on his left palm, De La Hoya fought a smart fight and was actually ahead 77-75 on one scorecard when in the ninth round when Hopkins hit him a left hook to the liver, knocking De La Hoya down and resulting in the first knockout of De La Hoya's career. De la Hoya later said that he wasn't dizzy at all, but that he couldn't get up because the pain of a well placed livershot is unbearable. Despite this De La Hoya made over thirty million dollars from the fight, and months later Hopkins became a partner in De La Hoya's Golden Boy Promotions.

Mayweather was considered a two to one favorite in the fight.
The fight finally took place on May 5, 2007. De La Hoya pressed the fight early, doing his best when he used his lead left jab, but Mayweather's speed and accurate punches gave him the advantage later in the fight. De La Hoya did rally in the final round, but when the scorecards were announced, Mayweather won by a split decision. De La Hoya was widely praised for his performance, and was the first man to beat Mayweather on any official scorecard.
