De La Hoya calificó la decisión como un regreso a sus raíces, y quiere sentirse como cuando entrenaba para sus combates de título mundial, según reseña
primerahora.com.
De La Hoya había completado sus entrenamientos para sus peleas ante Ricardo Mayorga, Mayweather y Steve Forbes en Puerto Rico, donde reside junto a su esposa e hijos.
El 'Golden Boy' (39-5) indicó que su entrenador, Floyd Mayweather, padre, recomendó que en esta ocasión entrenaran en el complejo de Big Bear. La remota localidad está a más de 6,000 pies (sobre 1800 metros) sobre el nivel del mar. Estas condiciones retan y fortalecen la condición cardiovascular del boxeador.
La revancha contra Mayweather Jr. está pautada para el 20 de septiembre en Las Vegas.
