Oscar De La Hoya |
After Oscar De La Hoya recently spoke about thinking of a comeback, Floyd Mayweather decided to call out the now 42-year-old
for a rematch this September. Their first bout happened in 2007, and
the three judges were split in awarding Floyd with the decision.
Interestingly enough, Oscar has now responded to Mayweather with an instagram post captioned "split decision".
"So I hear Floyd wants to give
me a rematch now," said a seemingly amused De La Hoya. "Our first fight
had a rematch clause, it had to take place within the year. He retired
in a year and one day."
"I'm happy. I'm content. I'm never coming back. I'm going to continue growing Golden Boy (Promotions)"
De La Hoya is 39-6 in his
hall-of-fame boxing career, which started out with a gold medal in the
Olympics. He officially retired in 2009, and hasn't competed since a
2008 loss to Manny Pacquiao, his 4th defeat in his last 7 fights.
