"The DBPR Florida Athletic Commission took immediate action the evening of Sunday, June 11, and suspended John Gotti III for six months," reads the statement obtained by Fox News Digital on Wednesday.
"Mayweather has not been penalized."
The match was stopped by referee Kenny Bayless in the sixth round, but Gotti appeared to ignore his instructions and continued to go after Mayweather, prompting several members from both teams to enter the ring.
