Floyd Mayweather may be one of the best fighters of all time with no losses to his record, but he is not above the court of public opinion as fans slammed his workout on the bag as he gears up to fight John Gotti III on August 23.
Mayweather officially retired from professional boxing in 2017 but seven years later, the 47-year-old continues to step into the ring in a series of exhibition bouts showing that he can never truly get away from the game.
And perhaps that’s why he still looks so fluid, fast and natural although some fans were not particularly impressed with his efforts as they took to X.com, formerly Twitter, to criticize the fighter.
“Couldn’t destroy a real fighter in his prime,” one user wrote in the comments of Boxing Kingdom’s post.
“He never destroys the heavy bag! He’s punching the bag like a lightweight,” added another.
“Even in Floyd’s prime on his best day ever, he never destroyed no heavy bag,” said a third.
With the feud continuing on in the subsequent 12 months, it will be interesting to see how proceedings play out at the Arena CDMX and tickets are still on sale for the bout ranging between $76 to $23,280 according to StubHub.
The fight can be watched live on DAZN, who hold the broadcast and streaming rights around the entire world.

When is Floyd Mayweather’s next fight?
Mayweather steps into the ring on August 23 to fight John Gotti III in Mexico City in his latest post-retirement fight in a rematch of their June 13, 2023 clash that prematurely ended in a brawl.
The flash point came when the referee waved off the fight after six rounds following Mayweather domination, although Gotti III got licks in too, enraging the latter. He then tried to attack Money and his team after the bell in Florida.
