It appears as if Floyd Mayweather and John Gotti III will be running it back, and for real this time.
On Friday night, Mayweather announced that a rematch between the undefeated boxer and six-time MMA veteran will take place Aug. 24 in Mexico City. “Money” made a similar announcement this past November for a fight during Super Bowl weekend in Las Vegas, but it never materialized, and in fact, Gotti himself never confirmed the booking.
This time, Gotti did promote the new date on several posts on his Instagram stories.
The two fighters competed in an exhibition bout in June 2023 where things ended in chaotic fashion.
In the sixth round of a somewhat forgettable affair, the angry energy between Mayweather and Gotti boiled over into mayhem as referee Kenny Bayless called a stop to the bout, which led to Gotti continuing to engage Mayweather and both camps entering the ring for an ugly melee.
The 31-year-old grandson of the infamous mob boss John Gotti is 5-1 as a pro MMA fighter, but made the switch over the boxing following his first MMA loss to Nick Alley in a massive upset at CES 61 in October 2020. Gotti is 2-0 in his pro boxing career, including a first-round knockout victory in January 2023.
Mayweather, 47. has kept himself busy with exhibition bouts against the likes of Logan Paul, Deji, and even Tenshin Nasukawa since defeating Conor McGregor in his final pro boxing bout in August 2017.
