n a dramatic post-fight reveal, Floyd Mayweather has accused John Gotti III of cheating in their recent bout, sparking controversy and intense debate among fans and the boxing community. According to Mayweather, Gotti engaged in underhanded tactics, including bribing the referee and even biting him during the match—a claim that has added a new level of intrigue to their already heated rivalry.
Mayweather, known for his precise technique and undefeated record, expressed frustration over what he saw as Gotti’s blatant disregard for the rules. “He’s a cheater,” Mayweather said, accusing Gotti of crossing a line that goes beyond typical competitive spirit. The veteran boxer explained that he noticed signs of biased refereeing throughout the fight, feeling that several unfair calls were made against him while Gotti seemed to receive leniency. This, combined with the alleged biting incident, has fueled Mayweather’s anger, leading him to publicly call out his opponent.
The biting incident, as described by Mayweather, took place during a clinch, a moment when fighters are typically at close range. Mayweather claims he felt a painful bite on his shoulder, a tactic he believes Gotti used to throw him off his rhythm. Such actions are highly unusual in the sport and have led many fans to question the level of sportsmanship displayed in the fight.
In response, Gotti’s camp has denied any wrongdoing, labeling Mayweather’s accusations as “baseless” and accusing him of trying to tarnish Gotti’s reputation. However, the allegations have sparked a wider conversation about the integrity of the sport, with many calling for an investigation into the referee’s role in the fight.
Fans and analysts alike are watching closely to see if Mayweather’s claims will lead to further scrutiny. If proven true, the accusations could have significant implications for Gotti’s future in the ring. For now, the boxing world remains divided, with Mayweather’s shocking claims adding a layer of controversy that won’t be forgotten anytime soon.
