They are running this match back, but it isn't because the first one was close. The fight wasn't officially scored, but MMA fighting had Mayweather up five rounds to none in the first fight before it was stopped in the sixth.
Gotti, the grandson of American crime boss John Gotti, has tried to make a name for himself in the combat sports arena for a while. He is 5-1 as a mixed martial arts and has won two professional boxing matches.
That being said, there's still a massive difference between Gotti's skill in the ring and Mayweather's.
What had to frustrate Gotti is what makes Mayweather so good at these exhibition bouts while he's approaching 50 years old. His defense, which was his calling card in his prime, remains very good.
It's that defense that allows Mayweather to control these exhibition bouts.
Expect him to take the same approach in this one. He'll take a cautious approach in the early rounds, allow Gotti to entertain the crowd with some offense, but Mayweather will be able to turn up the heat whenever he wants to.
Let's just hope the rematch remains a fight between both fighters in the ring instead of an all-out battle between both camps in and out of the ring.
