Oscar De La Hoya, head of Golden Boy Promotions and a former six-time world champion, is calling on Floyd Mayweather to finally hang up his gloves and refrain from participating in exhibition bouts.

Floyd Mayweather fought in another exhibition against Gotti on Saturday. A real s*** show that left the crowd booing at the end. But in the middle of the second round, Floyd literally had the referee swapped out. He didn't like that the referee told him to stop hitting behind the head. It was so awkward. Floyd, you're 50 years old, a legend of the sport. I've defended you in countless interviews, including Shannon Sharpe's podcast last week, but you need to stop embarrassing yourself with these exhibitions.
For context, on August 25 at the CDMX arena in Mexico City, Mayweather faced John Gotti III in a rematch that went the full eight rounds. No official winner was declared as the fight was categorized as an exhibition.
