Mayweather fended off the telegraphed punches and rocked the grandson of the notorious New York gangster – John Gotti – with a right hand before close to 30 people flew into the ring.
And a fired-up Gotti took to Instagram to take aim at the boxing icon.
Along with an aerial video of the melee, he wrote on his Instagram story: “Punk b***h @FloydMayweather. You my enemy for life.”
Gotti then put out a backup request to Mayweather’s last professional opponent, UFC legend Conor McGregor.
He wrote: “@TheNotoriousMMA we need back-up.”
The referee’s decision to stop the fight due to x-rated trash talk was perplexing, to say the least.
And Gotti was quick to lament the Bayless’ stoppage of their Florida fight.
The MMA fighter wrote: “But never put me down or stopped me. It was a DQ for no reason.”

She wrote on her private Instagram: “@Floydmayweather your daughter was ran through by a[n] animal with 12 different baby mamas – you little circus animal.
“You’re all a pack of zoo animals.
“I swear on my kids I’m coming for your daughter.
“It may be 2 years, 3 years from now, but I’m coming c**t.”
Mayweather’s showdown with Gotti was his seventh exhibition since retiring from professional boxing in August 2017.
The former five-weight world champion called time on his pro career after extending his record to a perfect 50-0 with a tenth-round TKO victory over McGregor.
