You’ve done it again - With the greatest
of ease
Knocked out an apponent - With not so much as a thankyou or please
What gave you this talent - In a sport that takes nerve
Your power is remarkable - And your energy you preserve!!
To be compared to Ali - Who was considered the
best
Is an incredible tribute - And not the easiest test
Ali could move and dance - And still had a punch
He’d fight 15 rounds - And then go have lunch!!
Born in East L.A. - Who could have guessed
With all the tough fighters - That you’d be the best
You won the Olympics - In nineteen ninety-two
And the dynasty it would start - No one had a clue!!
A few of the champions - Moved up in a weight
Few of them succeeded - And even fewer were great
But you’ve totally dominated - In such a short time
Four different weight classes - And you’re hardly in your
prime!!
What you might accomplish - If you continue this
pace
Will just strengthen your legend - With each opponent you face
But what’s more important - Is the role model for the youth
Kid’s will look up to you - In that moment of truth!!
But nothing comes easy - And wouldn’t you
know
Your fans expect more - With each new plateau
And to native Mexicans - Born South of the Rio Grande
You’re not one of them - You were born in this land!!
But Oscar they need you - You’re one of their
own
A champion role model - With no heir to your throne
So keep doing what you’re doing - You know how it goes
And you’ll keep getting what you’re getting - That’s
how positive energy flows!!
