Oscar De La Hoya vs. Shane Mosley II
Oscar De La Hoya vs. Shane Mosley II, billed as "Redemption", was a professional boxing match contested on September 13, 2003 for De La Hoya's WBA, WBC, ''The Ring'' and lineal super welterweight (light–middleweight) championships.
==Background==
De La Hoya and Mosley had previously met on June 17, 2000. De La Hoya was making the first defense of the WBC welterweight championship he had been awarded after the then-champion Félix Trinidad vacated the title after moving up and winning the WBA light–middleweight title. In a closely contested match, Mosley was given a split decision victory to claim the title. Two of the judges gave Mosley the fight with scores of 116–112 and 115–113, while the third had De La Hoya the winner by a score of 115–113.〔(Mosley Takes De La Hoya's Title on Split Decision ), N.Y. Times article, 2000-06-18, Retrieved on 2014-03-07〕 Because of the closeness of the fight, talks of rematch began immediately after, with Mosley stating "He gave me an opportunity to fight him. If he wants a rematch, I've got to give it to him."〔(Mosley says De La Hoya can have rematch ), Sports Illustrated article, 2000-06-20, Retrieved on 2014-03-07〕 Over two years would pass, however, until the De La Hoya and Mosley agreed to terms for a September 2003 rematch. The two fighters would initially reach an agreement in December 2002 to fight for De La Hoya's WBA, WBC and ''The Ring'' super welterweight titles. De La Hoya would make $12 million, while Mosley was set to make $4.25 million. The fight was also contingent on Mosley getting past Raul Marquez on February 8, 2003.〔(De La Hoya, Mosley Near Rematch ), L.A. Times article, 2002-12-17, Retrieved on 2014-03-07〕 Though Mosley fought to Marquez a no-contest, he was still offered the chance to continue forward with his planned De La Hoya rematch. However, the bout was briefly cancelled when Mosley asked for his $4.25 million purse to be increased by another $1.25 million for a total of $5.50 million. De La Hoya's promoter Bob Arum refused and declared that the rematch was "over, done, finished".〔(De La Hoya-Mosley Fight Off ), L.A. Times article, 2003-02-18, Retrieved on 2014-03-07〕 Despite Arum's claims, negotiations resumed and the two sides once again reached an agreement in March, with De La Hoya first needing to defeat Luis "Yori Boy" Campas. Mosley's purse was increased to $4.50 million, with an additional $500,000 to come from De La Hoya's purse should he win.〔(De La Hoya-Mosley rematch set ), USA Today article, 2003-03-18, Retrieved on 2014-03-07〕 After De La Hoya defeated Campas by technical knockout, the De La Hoya–Mosley fight was finally made official.〔(De La Hoya Pounds Campas to Set Up Another Showdown With Mosley ), N.Y.
