Dana White and Oscar De La Hoya are not the best of friends. De La Hoya took to Twitter following the UFC 266 main event, calling out White to pay his fighters more. These tweets ignited their latest back and forth. The trash talk then shifted to Instagram, where De La Hoya called Dana out on his story.
He wrote, “That’s all you got @danawhite? You’re accusing me of FAKING a virus that killed almost 700,000 Americans to avoid a fight?? You pathetic piece of sh*t you’ve never even laced up the gloves. And you completely ignored my original point I made about UNDERPAYING YOUR FIGHTERS.”

The UFC President replied within an hour, saying, “It’s no secret you’re a liar, drug addict, and all around sc*mbag. It doesn’t matter that you “laced up gloves” and there is no doubt you accomplished big things in boxing. But, out of the ring, you are an absolute f**king loser.”
“When you were a one-and-done MMA promoter, you lied about what Chuck and Tito would make and you paid everyone sh*t!! Not to mention. You didn’t even take the time to learn the names of the fighters on your card. So f*ck off. Leave the fight promoting to me. And do the whole world a favor and fight Vitor Belfort so we can all watch you go to sleep!!!”

Mayweather, who is currently enjoying retirement, has not replied to the offer yet. However, sources claim Mayweather seems interested in the fight. His team, on the other hand, doesn’t think De La Hoya has $100 million to offer.
