Floyd + Dana + UFC + $200mil = Possibly Great News

It's not happenening, It was a rumour prob started by some troll formm Sherdog, Dana has already resonded to this and laughed it off.

 

You know, i started the other thread on this and that is exactly where i found it first. There are some dunb shits on that website.

 

How could anyone even believe this. A penny-pincher giving $200 million to a boxer? LOL. They could've at least made it 20 to make it half-believable, but no.

 

Exactly Dana aint giving 1 million to Chuck Liddell he sure as **** aint giving 200 million to a boxer whos going to get tapped in 1 minute.

 

That's the thing. The money is absurd. One boxer getting several hundred times more money than the UFC's most well known fighters, and getting about three times what their rival MMA organization was worth?

I would consider the rumor plausible if the money was a fraction of that, but Dana White isn't handing out an A-Rod style contract when he can barely pay his undercard fighters enough money to fly to the damn show.

200 million is his entire fighter pay for about 5 years worth of PPVs.

 

who knows?...I know.....if it happens I'll close my East side acount:deal

and that's a guarantee not for nothing even close to 200 million.

 

What will that accomplish?

 

Floyd Mayweather jr. competing in Mixed Martial-Arts makes about as much sense as Michael Jordon's Baseball career - none.

I don't like the idea of Floyd Mayweather competing because we KNOW what will happen. Stand-up alone, he destroys anyone in the UFC, or any other organization, for that matter. But on the ground, it's fairly obvious, from what we know, Mayweather would lose badly, likely by submission.

Like Michael Jordon - he schools any Baseball player on the Basketball court, but strikes out in Baseball. What does that prove? Nothing much, besides the fact that money is the ultimate decider, and athletes will be athletes.

Still, I HIGHLY doubt Floyd Mayweather would do this. It would make little sense (but a lot of "cents", at the same time).

Then again, he danced on "Dancing with the Stars" and "competed" with "The Big Show" on Wrestlemania, so, who knows, Floyd generally goes where attention and money are. UFC is getting tons of attention, and money is there to be made.

If Dana White wanted to have it happen, he'd have to shell out cash - I'm not talking in the thousands, either.

 

$200 million is about what the UFC earns a year in revenue. If Floyd Mayweather ever decides to do MMA, it will be for monetary reasons.

 

...lol

 

Floyd says he is making 200 million, so you need to convert that. 20 million Floyd claimed equals about 1 million in actual cash- it should be about 10 million.

 

Lets just put it this way: The idea of Floyd fighting in the UFC is far crazier then the ficticious 200 mil price tag it would cost to get him there. Enough said. Pretty much never gonna happen.
