Floyd Mayweather vs John Gotti LIVE: Rivals set to renew hostilities following chaotic ending to first bout that saw mass brawl following fight

Mayweather and Gotti’s initial meeting last year ended in chaos, of course, when a mass brawl broke out between both teams. Here’s how it went down:

John Gotti, the late grandfather of Mayweather’s opponent tonight, remains one of the most powerful mob bosses of all time 22 years on from his death.

Gotti was the head of the feared Gambino crime family. He was sentenced to life in prison in 1992 after being convicted of murder and other counts, before dying behind bars a decade later.

Ahead of his rematch with Mayweather, Gotti III revealed what his grandfather would have made of the mass brawl that broke out last time.

“He would’ve wanted to rip Floyd’s head off, you know, when all that stuff’s going down.’

“I’m fighting to get respect for my name and make a positive, you know, impact on my family, so I’m sure he [grandfather] could appreciate that.’

NBA icon Anthony Davis is in Mexico for tonight’s showdown between Mayweather and Gotti.

There are even rumors that the Lakers power forward and Minnesota Timberwolves’ Anthony Edwards will be walking out with Floyd to the ring…

Tonight’s card got underway at 7:30pm ET, with the main event expected to begin just after midnight.

Mayweather and Gotti will battle it out over eight two-minute rounds, as was the case in their first fight.

Hello and welcome to Mail Sport’s coverage of tonight’s remtatch between Floyd Mayweather and John Gotti III over in Mexico City.

Mayweather is gearing up for yet another exhibition after his retirement from boxing as he prepares to share the ring with the grandson of infamous crime boss John Gotti for a second time.

Their first encounter proved far more dramatic than anticipated last year, with a chaos breaking out when Gotti reacted to being stopped in the contest by continuing to throw punches and sparking a mass brawl in the ring.
