Floyd Mayweather Jr settles his grudge with John Gotti III this Saturday when the pair locks horns again in an exhibition in Mexico.
Mayweather Jr met Gotti III in the latest of his post-retirement exhibitions back in June 2023 and what was expected to be another routine night, turned into anything but.
As has been the trend with Mayweather’s bouts since retiring undefeated from professional boxing in 2017, the American showboated his way through the eight rounds, frustrating Gotti III, who resorted to rough tactics, attempting to put the 47-year-old in a headlock where he could.
After repeatedly warning both fighters for using abusive language, referee Kenny Bayless waved off the contest, although Gotti III ignored this and continued to throw punches at ‘Money’.
Members of both teams stormed the ring, resulting in a mass brawl and an appetite for a rematch.
