People will no longer doubt his success against Loma, as Teo has proven his ability to defeat champions once again by defeating Taylor, who is still in his prime in my opinion. I admire Teo's confidence every time he fights, but what I don't appreciate about him is his behavior as a sore loser when he faces defeat. He tends to make numerous excuses for his losses. However, with his big win against Taylor, he has dispelled those doubts and solidified his position as a dangerous fighter.

Both surely do that, it's just the executions that matters, we seen that Lopez really outshine the current champ and impress
the judges to win the fight.

It's not an easy task but due to determination a fighter can really exceed from his capabilities, his performance shows that he is really
into a mission to win the fight and take the belt from Taylor, now he got 2 titles from two different fighters division an accomplishment that
a fighter always desires to achieved.

Anyone who watched or risked their fight if they understood and did some research would definitely be backing Lopez for a win.
He is a tough and great fighter so there is no doubt that every fight can easily finish perfectly accompanied by victory.
Even though he is a challenging fighter, anyone cannot underestimate him and must prepare everything so that he is not humiliated in the octagon.

Well, if there are sponsors and there is a fight, to begin with, there are still some people who want to witness those fights, but yeah boxing fans here surely want a real deal but the Fiasco will surely make it public and into the news and it surely spread like wildfire, for this isn't this real deal enough, for me exhibition fights are just like boxing with some added rules in there, but it surely looks real enough, but yeah no wants really taking exhibition match more seriously,


Yup! What he's done attacking Mayweather even though the fight is over have surely made him suspended from some boxing matches, for 6 months but for sure 6 months is just a little time or it is just like taking a rest for him, that is why he was really pissed off that he taken the fight to a brawl, this could surely goes public and Mayweather just wants a highlight in his fight and so he has gotten the highlight he wants,

Both fighters are surely studying how their opponents move, but it's evident that Lopez was the better fighter in that match, deserving credit for the big win. Just imagine, the challenger won the fight via unanimous decision, indicating his dominant performance over the champion. It is often difficult to achieve such clear victories in fights that end with the judges' decisions.

I think that Taylor is not comfortable facing Lopez.  We can see how awkward he moves during the fight.  Aside from that, it looks like Taylor slows down compared to his previous fight.  He is just too slow to react and adjust.  I think Lopez had studied Taylor very well making Taylor looks like a sitting duck since Lopez know how Taylor will move and Lopez is able to stop Taylor of his body shots and hooks.

I wasn't aware of his exhibition fight with Gotti but the fans know it's not worth watching Floyd in an exhibition fight anymore. The ones that go there in FLA must be the mods brought by Gottii and some are fanatics of Floyd. It for once worked but not this time fighting unknown personalities. It gets boring already. If it wasn't posted here I wouldn't know. The brawling though is making headlines.

Lol! Same here. There are a lot of events every weekend and also some interesting stuff to do that even non-title fights in boxing are not my priority anymore so there's a small chance that I'll be watching fake or scripted or not exhibition games. I did see some of the highlights as it will also show up on my social media feeds.

Floyd Mayweather fought in a nearly empty arena in the UK prior to this fight so they need drama. I just read that Gotti is now suspended for 6 months which is actually nonsense. 2 months of rest, 1 month of negotiation for a rematch, and then 2+ months of training and that's it. That's fewer months than many UFC fighters are waiting on standby to be given a fight.

No one watches Floyd exhibition matches specially for boxing fans here. I mean we wanted the real deal, not this kind of fights. And now that he fights John Gotti an then turn it into circus, as in basketball, both benches are empty and went against each other.

Probably yeah, as both continue to talk even even the ring. And I do agree that it's a disgrace to boxing inside, we don't want to see this kind of attack with their supporters or body guards. But then again, this is not a professional fight so what do you expect? As least for the majority of boxers, they trash talk but at the end of the fight they hug and shows respect whoever wins.

The Grandson of the Mobster boss and his father was the American former mobster who was the acting boss of the notorious Gambino crime family from 1991 to 1999, but John Gotti III becomes a professional MMA and is now a Boxer, but fought with Floyd Mayweather was chaos, and I really don't want to point fingers on who is the real reason for the fiasco, but I think Mayweather is already putting so much fuel in the lit spark, that turns into a wildfire, well explaining this Floyd Mayweather is good at trash talking and John Gotti III didn't like it, Mayweather is shamefully beating the son of a former mobster and adding to this the fuel was his non-stop trash talking, for me both are at fault, well John Gotti III shouldn't respond like that


I am really expecting a good fight in the main event but after checking the records, their previous fight, and what you are saying right now this may turn ugly indeed for Ocampo, but surely there is still a chance,

And with the Filipino Boxer, I am seeing Vegas Larfield is not an easy fight for Jhunrille Castino, but I don't want to say that Jhunrille Castino doesn't have any chance we can not see until they fight right, 


Respect Floyd Mayweather for giving credit to the Philippine independence I think many of his Filipino fans will be pleased in seeing this, but Floyd Mayweather is pretty much notorious with his mouth rather than with his fist, we can all get to see the saying that word is more hurtful than using physical hurt, I really don't know the saying but I think it goes like this, while Gotti is a hot-headed kid and have shown that he is easily got frustrated about what Mayweather is saying,

I saw this on my notification but I missed watching it. It's not like I really want to watch Floyd Mayweather anymore, but what he did is really nice for Filipino boxing fans and the whole nation. Wearing that short with the Philippine flag is something, it's not like we urged him to do it but that's a good way to be respectful to others. Thanks to that Floyd.

I just finished watching the highlights and damn I was shocked and laughing at the end.
Referee Bayless instead of saying "Watch your head" says "Watch your mouth!"  Is it because of the trash-talking? Hilarious. Like a Dad scolding his kids.
It almost looked like it is scripted. I don't know.
But the brawl in the end might not be part of the script. Both corners didn't let go and still arguing at the ring while their boxers are already out. Why do they have too many staffs in each corner? I mean, that's like 20-30 people for each boxer. Ain't that too much? Afterward, I saw some clips on youtube shorts where Gotti and his crew are making bad fingers at some of the Mayweather fans. What are they? 15?

Yeah! he was clearly frustrated and caused all the trouble after their fight I wonder if it's just some kind of scripted thing and they did it on purpose. I don't know about it but they seem not to have enough views on their fight because everyone knows the result and that's just pure drama so they just probably create some side quests in order to add some sugar to their pies to make the show interesting. To be honest, I just know they fought after that incident because no one even posted them here. that's just how boring they are.

It's interesting that Tim has been on a get busy fight as he is waiting for the Charlo match-up. So another tune up fight for him and I will not be surprised if he can score a shut out win or dominate Ocampo here or win via knockout as he is also capable of doing that.

Anyhow, I haven't heard about Charlo though, although he said that he is ready for June. But I doubt it, seems that the injury will take time to heal as expected. Of course when everything has settled down and he is ready, they might still have a chance to salvage this fight for this year. Maybe December might be a good schedule for them.

It's all over the social media and other boxing community.

Not sure who started it but it seems that during the fight they continue to trash talk and maybe I would say that Skip Bayless hear could also be the culprit for stopping the fight early and that's why there is a melee inside the ring as both parties trying to protect their boxers. And you can see Floyd's body guard also coming into the ring and I saw some punches throw as well. This is a disgrace to boxing.

Yeah, I can say that Gotti is a sore loser. He couldn't even throw punches when Floyd was attacking him, probably getting frustrated and seizing the opportunity to attack Floyd when the referee stopped the fight. Gotti was no match for Floyd's quickness, even with Floyd's age disadvantage. I'm not sure if it was part of the script, but if it was, then I would say they were successful, as people were talking about the fight afterward.

Anyone saw the Gotti vs Mayweather fight?

It ended in chaos, referee stopping the contest, but Gotti continue to march forward and fight Floyd.

Here is the full fight: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T3yMuwYtLXY. Go past forward to 18:38.

Fun fact: Floyd rocking the 🇵🇭 flag in his trunks. Perhaps to pay respect to the Philippines as we celebrate our Independence day, (Maligayang Araw ng Kalayaan (2023)).

Not the kind of Teo that we use to see, he was having fun. Is Taylor just too slow or Teo had really improved well?  Either way, its very stunning and boxing fans could by now will see Teo not just a kid who had some luck over Loma. Still Taylor fans couldn't believe it. It could just be because Taylor was too flushed to to get the weight at 140.

If Teo was much faster and relied to volume while Taylor seem to have gassed out, he could have KO Taylor to be more impressive.

Well, he deserved it because not everyone can defeat the Tartan Tornado and only Teo managed to do it, and even showed the world how to do it. Now, Taylor is already an open book for a lot of boxers who are looking forward to make him a stepping stone because even if he's now not an undefeated boxer, he can still give a good fight to almost everyone who thinks they can be a superstar but is not giving any signs of dedication.

Anyway, I agree, the next few months or years will be much more interesting because there will be a new challenger and defender of the belt.

Now that the events for Teofimo Lopez VS Josh Taylor were settled I think it is time to move forward here is consider not that big of a fight but for Filipino boxing fans there is a Filipino in this line-up and his name was Jhunrille Castino that will be clashing against Vegas Larfield, and the Main Event was between Tim Tszyu versus Carlos Ocampo,

This is really the type of fights that I like to differ from boxing, because they both fought and gave everything they had, obviously Teófimo had a much more intense training than Taylor, and many were in favor of Talylor so these bets were very split. and it could be said that the crowd failed, personally when a boxer shows that his strength is training and worthy of winning the way he did, and he did not have to resort to a purely technical fight as some do, which for many already enters to a totally boring shot, instead here there were counterattacks, exchange of blows, a whole real fight, good for Teofimo.
