Floyd Mayweather Jr. will go around with John Gotti III for a second time this month in another exhibition bout at Arena CDMX in Mexico City, Mexico, more than a year after their first descended into chaos with a no-contest result.
The pair previously met in 2023 as part of the undefeated fighter's continued raft of one-off fights since his professional retirement, but farcical scenes ensured after trash-talking by both camps ended with a ring invasion and backstage brawling.
The two will hope to have a definitive answer in this latest contest, as Mayweather squares off with Gotti, the grandson of legendary monster John Gotti and a professional mixed martial artist in his own right. The latter could credibly score an upset if he exploits his opponent's aging form, but with Mayweather continuing to defy expectations, even in these "friendly" contests, it will certainly take a terrific effort to stop him.
Elsewhere on the bill, Victor Ortiz and Rodrigo Damian Coria are set to go toe-to-toe, while there will also be an encounter between David Picasso and Azat Hovhanisyan.
So, when and where can you watch it all unfold? Who else is on the bill? What are the headline duo’s fight records? Allow GOAL to give you all the details as Floyd Mayweather and John Gotti III prepare to clash in the ring once again.
