The talk of the town, Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. John Gotti III just got concluded with an abrupt brawl inside the boxing ring between both fighters’ teams. Well, all hell broke loose when the fighters were penalized by the referee for not being servile to the instructions given to them, so in the sixth round, the fight was stopped. But both Mayweather and Gotti III didn’t seem to have enough and attacked each other even after the bout was over. It brought the teams on both ends and within seconds, the ring was jam-packed with a lot of people. Many even called it to be worse than the incident between Khabib Nurmagomedov and Conor Mc Gregor.

But as it seems, that was not the only confrontation that took place on Sunday night. The former three-division title holder, Jorge Linares, walked up to the current WBA Super Lightweight champion, Rolly Romero. While Linares was talking to him in vexation, Romero was flipping him off and even stated while looking at the camera, “I want everyone to know this motherf***er is clout chasing right now.”

But simultaneously, many thought the actions of Linares to be pathetic and desperate for good PPV numbers before his retirement. Apparently, he even called out Ryan Garcia on social media prior to this. Meanwhile, some fans voiced out in support of Linares and had an explanation for his behavior.
