Oscar De La Hoya, the people's champion who lost the World Boxing Council's super-welterweight belt last weekend in his match against Floyd Mayweather Jr., has sold his Big Bear Lake property for about $2.1 million.
It was bought by mixed martial arts champ Tito Ortiz — "the Huntington Beach bad boy" of the Ultimate Fighting Championship, who recently was named one of the "50 Most Beautiful" Latino celebrities by People en Español.
Last November, De La Hoya listed his mountain retreat and training facility on an acre at $2.5 million. He wasn't using the home much because he lives and trains in Puerto Rico. He also owns a home in Pasadena.
