Canelo, who lost to Mayweather on points in 2013, tweeted a facepalm emoji in response.
And Jake Paul was quick to respond.
The brash American quote-tweeted it, writing: "You can’t sell PPV’s
"I would eat you alive."
Canelo, 30, had already been critical of the Paul brothers entering the boxing world.
He said before the fight: "Well, it’s just an exhibition. It’s about making money is all.

Jake Paul, 24, is set to face Tyron Woodley on August 28, after his first round KO of grappler Ben Askren back in April.
He has also been called out by John Fury, who dared him to fight son Tommy on the undercard of Tyson's July 24 trilogy bout with Deontay Wilder.
