Floyd Mayweather doesn’t have anything else to prove as a boxer but that hasn’t stopped him from cashing in on lucrative exhibition bouts against fighters less heralded than him. While it would be assumed that Floyd Mayweather would prefer to let his hands do the talking, he recently opted to fire a referee during a recent match against John Gotti III over a missed call.
Last Saturday (August 24) in Mexico City, Floyd Mayweather and John Gotti III faced each other in a rematch of their 2023 fight that ended in a disqualification decision due to excessive holding from Gotti and trash talk. For this most recent bout, it was another non-scoring fight that took place at the Mexico City Arena.
As reported by TMZ Sports, Hector Afu, who was the referee boxing match, called out Mayweather for what was assumed to be an illegal “rabbit punch” to the back of the ear. Mayweather protested the call, moving Afu out of the way. Afu attempted to keep order in the ring but was eventually given the boot.
The fight went on and fans online said that the action inside the ring was less intense than the argument between Mayweather and Afu. However, it was largely assumed that although there wasn’t a judge’s scorecard, Floyd Mayweather dominated John Gotti III in the ring.
A video of the moment can be viewed here.

Shakur Stevenson is the current WBC Lightweight champion and made a successful defense of his title over the weekend against Artem Harutyunyan in Stevenson’s hometown of Newark, N.J. The fight was reportedly not a thrilling one, with Cam’Ron and Ma$e critiquing Stevenson’s performance, promoting a fiery tirade from the boxer online that has now erupted into a true war of words.
Shakur Stevenson, 27, was made aware of the disdain that not only fight fans but his corner also noticed on July 6. Many times throughout the fight, Stevenson’s corner pleaded with him to throw punches but Harutyunyan was also relatively inactive. This performance caught the eye of Cam’Ron and Ma$e, who had some things to say on their It Is What It Is sports talk program.
Much of the vitriol from Stevenson landed in the direction of Ma$e, and we’ll share some of the Xitter replies in question in the gallery below. Let’s just say that it’s very much up for Stevenson against the It Is What It Is hosts.
The artist born Mason Betha responded to Stevenson with a menacing drawl letting it be known in so many words that it can turn to beef if it needs to. Killa Cam also added some sauce on top of the brewing beef, telling Stevenson that street boxing isn’t the same as boxing in the ring.
Despite enjoying his recent title defense, Shakur Stevenson has been going off on Xitter, which made Ma$e and Cam’Ron essentially say that the boxer is crashing out.
Check out the chatter and reactions below.

For a while now professional boxer Ryan Garcia has been alienating his fans whether it be because of his unwavering support of Donald Trump or simply acting a fool.
Now, the embattled boxer has gone off the deep end with his MAGA-ish racism as he took to X Space and went on a crazy hateful rant against Black people for no apparent reason, and it will cost him dearly.
According to Yahoo, Garcia shocked listeners and supporters when he and a few associates were chopping it up on X Space. Garcia suddenly decided to let the N-word fly in a hateful filled rant in which he said, “I hate n*****s, I’m anti-Black … N*****, I’m KKK, I hate n*****s … Hey, let’s go bring George Floyd back to life and kill that n***** again.’”
We’re not sure which chapter of the KKK allows Mexican-Americans to join their racist organization, but apparently Garcia thinks he found one.
Continuing to spew his unfiltered hate for all to hear, Garcia went on to include Muslims on his sh*t list saying, “f*ck all you Muslim a** f*ckin’ weird a** f*cks.” When told that he would regret saying all these things, Garcia responded saying, “I will never be touched because I’m with God. I’m with Jesus.”
Christ on crutches.
After Garcia’s comments went viral the World Boxing Council decided to take action and expelled Garcia.
Yahoo reports:
Only a few hours later, WBC president Mauricio Sulaiman announced he was expelling Garcia from his organization. He also mentioned that Garcia had declined multiple attempts by the WBC to provide help with mental health and substance abuse.
Garcia’s own parents later released a statement disavowing his comments and saying he needs help:
“Our son has recently made statements that do not align with his, or our family’s, true character or beliefs. Our family unequivocally does not support any statements he has made regarding race or religion — these do not reflect who Ryan truly is and how he was raised.
“Those who know Ryan can attest to this fact. Ryan has been open about his ongoing struggle with mental health over the years and as a family we are committed to ensuring and encouraging that he receives the necessary help to navigate this very challenging time and address both his immediate and long-term well-being. We appreciate the continued support, prayers and compassion.”
Yeah, Garcia needs help. From claiming he was taken to Bohemian Grove where he was forced to watch kids being raped by rich and powerful men to claiming he knows who killed Tupac—and has proof of it—Ryan Garcia’s been on some sh*t for quite some time.
What do y’all think of Ryan Garcia’s latest controversy? Let us know in the comments section below.

Mike Tyson suffered a health scare while in midair and is now recovering despite having a major boxing event coming in the next few weeks. The former heavyweight world champion suffered an ulcer flare-up and appears to be expected to go forward with his bout with social media star Jake Paul.
As seen on Deadline, Mike Tyson, 57, was on an American Airlines flight from Miami to Los Angeles when the flare-up occurred. As the outlet reports, flight attendants rushed to the boxing legend’s aid and requested the assistance of a doctor on board.
More from Deadline:
“He became nauseous and dizzy due to an ulcer flare up 30 minutes before landing, a rep for Tyron said in a statement to media outlets. “He is appreciative to the medical staff that were there to help him” and is now feeling “great”, the rep added.
Flight attendants reached out to passengers to see if a doctor was on board when Tyson revealed he was in intense pain. Paramedics reportedly boarded the plane when it landed to assist Tyson.
Tyson is set to take on Paul, 27, in Arlington, Texas at the Dallas Cowboys’ AT&T Stadium on July 20. Paul has said in interviews that while he respects Tyson, he isn’t going to pull any punches. Tyson promises that the fight isn’t a money grab and that he intends to bring the fight to Paul.
