ABOUT MAYWEATHER VS. GOTTI III – THE REMATCH:

Following a dramatic first meeting, the highly anticipated rematch between boxing’s most recognizable name, Floyd “Money” Mayweather Jr., and Long Island, NY’s John Gotti III is set for Saturday, August 24. Arena Ciudad de México in Mexico City will play host to the undefeated, 12-time, five-division boxing superstar Floyd Mayweather Jr. as he seeks to vanquish the grandson of notorious mob boss, John Gotti, in an 8-round exhibition match for the ages.

In a star-studded co-main event, former WBC Welterweight Champion “Vicious” Victor Ortiz squares off in an 8-round exhibition match against the No. 5-ranked Argentine Rodrigo Damián Coria, a former WBO Latin Champion who has never been knocked out.

Mexico City’s own WBC Super Bantamweight Silver Champion David Picasso (28-0-1, 16 KOs) defends against former world title challenger, Azat Hovhanisyan (21-4, 17 KOs) in a 12-round affair.

In addition, undefeated rising star Curmel Traymayne Moton (4-0, 3 KOs) returns to action against Mexico’s Victor Vazquez (5-2-1) in a lightweight tilt.
