Hmmm ... you got me curious so I looked around and from what I found he mainly focused on the new trainer than on Oscar here are some exerts...
The poems were always about De La Hoya's opponents, but this one was about his new trainer, Freddie Roach. Doesn't make much sense, after all, to criticize the former boss when you might want to work for him again.
"Freddie "The Joke" Roach wouldn't dare to approach,"
"He's a roach blowing smoke with no hope.
"Oscar just moved from first class to the dope with the roach.
"Now the roach will be sprayed with Raid and turn the page."
Not exactly Walt Whitman, but Floyd Jr. thought it was pretty funny. He laughed, and whispered something in his father's ear.

As fighters the blogbaba is a huge fan of both Floyd Jr. and Oscar.
Floyd Sr. is not the blogbaba's first choice as a trainer, or for that matter even in the top ten. At this stage any criticism of Oscar by Floyd Sr. is hype, he should know he's not going to get into Oscar's head and psych him out. If any fighter active has had his share of big fights it's Oscar, and this one is another day at the office for DeLa Hoya.
Anyone who can claim DeLa Hoya lacks skill has at best a questionable outlook anyway, even if it is just bad poetry.

Im sure whatever he said in prose was just as ignorant as something coming out of his son's mouth.
