Floyd 'Money' Mayweather is back for another payday, and this time he faces an overmatched John Gotti III. Our boxing picks believe Floyd wins this fight for fun, but will still give the fans a memorable bout.
Floyd Mayweather Jr. continues to conduct his exhibition tour, appropriately dubbed “The Heist,” six years after retiring from official competition. For what it’s worth, Mayweather fights with conviction in these throwaway matches, not wanting to be upstaged or compromised by the oddities he’s been facing. At his best, Mayweather combined pinpoint counter-punching and excellent ring IQ to dominate five weight classes, retiring undefeated at 50-0.
He’ll have to overcome a four-inch height deficit against John Gotti III, and is likely to be pushed to the ropes considering Gotti’s MMA background. Luckily for Mayweather, Gotti is a deliberate striker, who will provide him with plenty of opportunities to counterattack. Expect Mayweather to target Gotti’s body, and open up his offense once his opponent begins to fade.
Though Gotti has formal combat sports training, he is a regional talent at best in both boxing and MMA.
