Oscar De La Hoya Trolls Mayweather On Twitter
LOS ANGELES (CBSLA.com) — Boxing legend Oscar De La Hoya is clearly not a fan of Floyd Mayweather Jr.
The Mexican-American who was born in Los Angeles took to the twittersphere last night to troll Mayweather during his fight with Andre Berto.
In what Mayweather insists was his last fight, he defeated Andre Berto by unanimous decision to improve his overall record to 49-0.
De La Hoya started the night off by saracastically saying how he is going to miss Mayweather's fights.
I'm going to miss Floyd's action packed fights with prime fighters.

This was just the first tweet of the night from De La Hoya regarding Mayweather. He retweeted ESPN host Michelle Beadle's tweet calling Mayweather trash.
I would rather light my money on fire than line the pockets of trash. So nah. https://t.co/pbhOnw9DiQ

Once fans inquired as to what De La Hoya was up to when the Mayweather fight was underway, the boxing legend enlightened fans with this response.
I'm sure glad I decided for Disney movies with my kids tonight.

With just two rounds to go in the fight, De La Hoya replied to a fightnews.com tweet that said, "two more rounds and Floyd will be retired... allegedly", with this simple two word response:
Thank God https://t.co/qe9vYoaEQo

De La Hoya concluded his epic night of tweeting by proclaiming that the worst era in boxing history is over.
Now that the worst boxing era is over let's look forward to the next 10 years. #Canelo#Cotto#Golovkin#Lemieux

Needless to say, De La Hoya and Mayweather won't be having family dinners together anytime soon.
