The Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. John Gotti III exhibition fight ended in complete chaos. Despite being 16 years older than his opponent Gotti III, Floyd Mayweather outboxed the former inside the ring. Undoubtedly, given his performance, Mayweather won every single round. However, soon Gotti III and Mayweather started exchanging words while still fighting.
The referee forbade the fighters to use NSFW words during the bout. However, Gotti III disobeyed the instructions of the center referee and kept talking. This led the referee-in-charge to put a halt on the contest and draw a conclusion to Mayweather’s seventh exhibition bout in boxing. Although the referee signaled a stop, Gotti III went on to fight Mayweather and started swinging wildly. This provoked others to intervene and create an entirely different scene at the venue.
