Former world champion in five weight classes Floyd Mayweather Jr. spoke out about the mass brawl that occurred during his exhibition boxing bout with MMA fighter John Gotti.
In the sixth round, referee Kenny Bayless disqualified Gotti for multiple rules violations. This decision did not please John, who said he would continue the fight, then pushed the referee aside and attacked Floyd. Subsequently, teams of athletes entered the ring, which led to a mass brawl. It is worth noting that John is the grandson of famous New York gangster John Gotti.

Mayweather was coming off an exhibition bout against Aaron Chalmers in February of this year. Since it was an exhibition bout, no winner was named, but Floyd dominated and won all eight rounds.
In November 2022 Mayweather had an exhibition bout against the popular blogger Deji Olatunji in Abu Dhabi. The fight ended in Floyd's favor by TKO.
