John Gotti III has called for a rematch with Floyd Mayweather after their dramatic exhibition fight last weekend.

The bout descended into a chaotic brawl as Gotti attempted to continue the fight despite being disqualified due to the pair's vitriolic trash talking in the ring.

The event made headlines around the world and even caught the attention of Joe Rogan, who discussed it on his podcast.

“Floyd is just piecing him up. Even at 46, he’s the greatest of all time and this kid is really an MMA fighter,” Rogan said.

“He’s a tough guy. He caught Floyd a couple of times with some little shots, but mostly he’s just getting boxed up by literally the greatest boxer of all time.

"But he was holding on quite a bit and wouldn’t let go and was trying to hold and clinch and hit which is something you can do in MMA so he’s protecting himself from Floyd, but he’s not letting go.”

Gotti fired back at Rogan on social media.

“Joe Rogan it was mutually called for both of us cursing at one another," Gotti insisted.

"Those are the only two moments I clinched the [whole] fight. You still the man [though] Joe.

"Logan Paul clinched five million times though but that was okay.

"Floyd gassed himself out and I started having brief moments and they called it. Hard when everyone on his payroll.”

Gotti then called for a rematch with Mayweather.

He continued: “The majority spoke you f***ing pineapple.

“Let’s do it again, this time your whole team getting left in the street.

"Me and this girl Floyd Mayweather run it back in New York. Who’s in?

"This time I’m bringing heavy hitters. Next time I fight him like a dog.”

If there is to be a rematch it won't be happening any time soon as the Florida Commission have suspended Gotti for six months.
