Outside of an odd second round, there was no controversy surrounding the rematch between Floyd Mayweather and John Gotti III in Mexico City.

The fight went the distance, and if one scored the contest, it would have been a one-sided showcase from the legendary Mayweather.

Gotti came into the fight as focused as ever, promising a knockout. While he landed solid inside shots, Mayweather’s defense, which helped him during his Hall of Fame career, was too smooth. His fast hands were too much for Gotti to handle at various points. 

The fight almost went off without a hitch. The second round saw Mayweather switch the referee out mid-fight. That almost started another brawl between both camps, but things resolved quickly.

Gotti complained about multiple shots behind the head, but no points could be taken off, and Mayweather only got a stern warning. He responded by smiling, talking to those on the outside, and playing with his food. Both embraced as the contest ended.

Mayweather earned another paycheck to add to his recent endeavors after retiring from the pro level in 2017. He rejected rumors he would fight the legendary Julio Cesar Chavez, 62. As for Gotti, it is unknown what is next for the MMA fighter, boxer, and grandson of notorious gangster John Gotti.
