Floyd Mayweather's exhibition rival John Gotti III has admitted he used to study the boxing legend's technique on YouTube.
Retired fighter Mayweather will make his return to the ring in an exhibition fight on June 11 in Florida against MMA fighter and professional boxer Gotti III - grandson of mafia boss John Gotti. It will be the latest lucrative bout for the 50-0 undefeated star who has already shared the ring with the likes of YouTube stars Deji and Logan Paul.
His new opponent has a natural background in fighting having spent time in the professional MMA ranks, but has recently recorded his maiden two wins in the squared circle after making the switch late last year. And the 30-year-old has suggested he is willing to grab the opportunity with both hands despite having huge respect for his counterpart.
