Speaking of Mayweather and the possible switch to MMA a guy on the radio today made an interesting analogy: Consider Mayweather to be the premier runner in the world, equivalent to the Olympic gold medalist and world record holder, who now decides he wants to compete not just as a runner but as a decathalete and he has a short amount of time to master jumping, throwing and pole vaulting.
Personally, I can see him taking a couple of MMA fights but against no-name opposition so he can clean their clocks, bring some more attention to Mark Cuban's outfit, and then that would be the end of it. Can't see him fighting a George St.Pierre or Matt Hughes - that would be too much of a risk.
