This will be his seventh such bout, having previously fought Tenshin Nasukawa, Mikuru Asakura, Deji Olatunji, Logan Paul, Don Moore, and Aaron Chalmers.

Gotti, the grandson of notorious American crime boss John Gotti, has experience in professional boxing and mixed martial arts, with a record of 5-1 in MMA and 2-0 in boxing.

In his most recent fight, he scored a first-round TKO against Alex Citrowske on Jan. 21. Both fighters come from well-known lineages, and the event is billed as "Last Name Matter".

The match between Mayweather and Gotti III has generated significant buzz in the sports world, with many fans eagerly anticipating the showdown.

It will be interesting to see how the two fighters match up, given their different backgrounds and fighting styles.

Mayweather is widely considered one of the greatest boxers of all time, with an undefeated professional record of 50-0.

While Gotti is not as well-known, he comes from a family with a reputation for toughness and tenacity.

Despite being an exhibition bout, the Mayweather-Gotti III match promises to be an exciting and entertaining event for fans of combat sports. Both fighters have a lot to prove and will be looking to make a statement in the ring.
