UFC star Conor McGregor is now the “main man” after seizing an opportunity to call out his rival, Floyd Mayweather. The Irishman, famed for throwing shade at his adversaries, went a step ahead and declared “war” against the boxer. Also, he specified his intent to back John Gotti 3 who now has serious beef with Mayweather.

Chaos ensued when the 30-year-old boxer exchanged blows with Mayweather in an exhibition match on Sunday night. The saga initially seized the headlines since the announcement of the fight due to Gotti’s family legacy. Further, the soaring tensions between the two camps culminated in a brawl when Gotti’s continued to tag Mayweather despite referee Kenny Bayless calling off the fight in the sixth round. After a show of token of support by the ‘Notorious’, Gotti reverted back to the Irishman in the hopes of fostering a bond that might prove fatal for Mayweather.

Likewise, in another Instagram story, he shared an article covering the Irish fighter’s tweet about him and Mayweather. Amusingly, Gotti found it hilarious and penned, “haha”.

Gotti’s pursuit to seek revenge, after a premature ending to his bout with Mayweather, has received a boost following the tweet posted by McGregor expressing his support. Earlier, the former UFC champion fell back to his old tweet-and-delete shenanigans as he expressed, “I back the Gotti’s. The war is on”.

On the other hand, Mayweather, still jarred by a death threat to his daughter, finds himself in a difficult situation after the chaos that ensued following the conclusion of the exhibition bout with the grandson of the former mafia boss John Gotti.
