Floyd Mayweather was not punished by the Florida State Athletic Commission while John Gotti III has been slapped with a six-month suspension for his role in the post-fight brawl, TMZ reports. The punishment was actually issued Sunday night, a spokesperson for FSAC said—right after Gotti got disqualified against Mayweather, but kept throwing punches anyway. Those extracurricular shots caused an all-out melee between the two competitors’ teams, who flooded into the ring as security struggled to get ahold of the chaos. A separate brawl took place backstage between rapper Big Lex and former reality star Joseline Hernandez, the latter of which was arrested for charges including trespassing and battery.
