Watch Floyd Mayweather-John Gotti III exhibition break out in brawl
Floyd #Floyd
Chaos erupted Sunday during Floyd Mayweather’s exhibition with John Gotti III at FLA Live Arena.
The bout was called in the sixth round, but people from both of the fighters’ camps and the crowd flooded the ring and started fighting.
Mayweather quickly left the ring to get out of there.
After the fight was called, Gotti ran around the ref and tried to keep fighting Mayweather. That’s when the chaos started. There were reported fights in the crowd, too.
Gotti, 30, held a 5-1 MMA record and a 2-0 record as a professional boxer. Gotti is the grandson of infamous former New York mob boss John Gotti.
Mayweather retired from boxing in 2017, but he’s been competing in exhibition bouts. He fought Logan Paul in a fight in 2021.
