Floyd Mayweather toying with John Gotti III in the ring

After defeating Conor McGregor in 2017 at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Mayweather called quits on his 20-year professional boxing career. However, ‘Money’ continued to be involved in boxing even after he retired, as seen by his participation in a series of exhibition fights much to the dismay of many fans.

Floyd once more displayed his boxing skills tonight against John in yet another exhibition match. Fans saw Mayweather completely dominate his opponent in the fight, much as he did back in the glory days of his boxing career.

Another reason why everyone was interested in the fight was because it involved John Gotti III, the late mob boss John Gotti’s grandson and head of the New York City Gambino crime family.
