    Pretty Boy no more. His face is going to be messed up pretty quick by the first viable opponent he faces. All because of his big ego. Both physically and psychologically, Mayweather is not built for the UFC.

    It's like putting Jordan in skates and telling him to go and play hockey.

    If Mayweather jumps to UFC it'll be horrible for Boxing. I'd kill the guy if he did it. (and for all you modes out there by kill I mean dislike alot in a peaceful manner).

    Good post. That's why it would be such a big challenge. It should silence the ones that say that he's afraid to get beaten up by Cotto a bit..

    I think if he did go to UFC, he would be officially the most hated boxer of all time. As if he is not hated enough, he then goes to boxings biggest rival.

    If UFC rivals boxing, then boxing is doing something wrong. Two different sports.

    Not really, theyre both fighting sports, just both differenent kinds of fighting. The casual fight fan could be swayed either way if there was a big ufc event and a big boxing event on the same night.

    I enjoy both but favor MMA. Boxing is a subset of skills. MMA can be terrible to watch for the 'average' fan though. The cage limits your view and you only see what is going on standing up sometimes too. Boxing is friendlier to the spectator at a live event. Boxers really have to keep moving to keep the interest up since they are really only using one weapon, fans want to see them use it more often.
