Floyd Mayweather Jr. comfortably outboxed John Gotti III in their highly anticipated exhibition rematch on Saturday night at the Arena CDMX.

The 47-year-old boxing legend delivered a masterclass over eight two-minute rounds, showcasing his trademark skills that have defined his illustrious career.

Mayweather, who proclaimed himself "The Best Ever," controlled the bout from start to finish, using his jab to set up combinations and slipping Gotti III's punches with ease.
