    Mayweather would demolish Rousey.

    I'd have no problem with it if they were both willing participants.

    I would fight both of them for $30 million.

    They would wipe the floor with you. Would 30 mil be enough to cover the medical expenses? It took 6 mil to rebuild Steve Austin, and surely the cost has gone up since that was done.

    Lame response, that has nothing to do with fighting. I'd like to see it happen though. Give him 6 months to get some basic grappling skills, and see him take on Rousey.

    If it were MMA she would embarrass him.

    I have to say one about Floyd Mayweather. I am going to miss him after he retires. For true fans of the sweet science he is a beauty to watch. As far as defence goes only Willy Pep was in his league. But he's had some boring fights though. I don't think we will see his like again.

    If you're into fighting, I don't see how boxing is going to keep the interest now that MMA is getting big. MMA is just so much more interesting and entertaining from that standpoint. Boxing is like baseball, in that it has tradition, but MMA is going to take over like the NFL did.

    I personally find MMA to be a bit too violent though. Grappling is fine, but I don't enjoy seeing people get knocked out, or hit in the head when they're on the ground.

    I'm guessing you believe otherwise? I don't think it would even be close. He'd knock her out without much effort. There's no arguing the strength difference between a man and a woman, period.

    Boxing is far more violent though, way more head trauma.

    Which explains Mayweather's remarks.

    I can't change my stripes Sinobas. It takes a lifetime to understand and study boxing. Same with hockey. My brother tries to get me into it but I never played it and I don't know the rules.

    In a boxing match yes, but not MMA. Just take a look back at UFC1, to see what happens when a smaller guy, who is a grappling expert, goes against bigger stronger guys with no grappling. Royce Gracie, who really didn't have much striking capability at all, beat a former professional boxer, because once he got ahold of him it was all over.

    My point is not about boxing vs MMA. It's male vs female. I have not doubt that Rousey is strong (for a female), but I doubt she's has anywhere near the strength to "get ahold of" and contain a highly trained male athlete such as Mayweather.
