    The top MMA fighters make good money. No matter where they fight. It's the young guys coming up that make the garbage money like $3000. I agree they should get paid more. However lots of the money is also not shown to us. the UFC is a private company. They only show SOME of what the fighters get.

    For example. Randy made like 250k for his last PPV show or something like that. However, after Randy started bitching, the fertita's accountant had a press conference and showed how Randy made in the multi millions.

    It's just not all reported.

      ill give you this....

      Mayorga is top 5 fighter in the entertainment category....

      Mayorga at times fights like he's an MMA fighter.....

      But Mayorga's fight record nor skill can compare to Mayweather's...

      That's all u get man..and i took it easy on you...

        Mayweather would be the most feraed man in MMA.

        Who would to fight the guy with those half gloves on???

        Not to mention how accurate he is....

        the speed and reflexes..the way he moves around.....

        he would absolutely hurt people in MMA...

          I dont know how this turned into Mayorga vs. Mayweather but.............

          I know Mayweather is p4p #1 right now. BUT he hardly has any fans and fights like a *****. Dont write off Mayorga like nothing, he was a undisputed 147 champ too.

            He would be pretty good in his weight division. But i think someone like a Cotto would be even better in that sport. I would love to see Mosley give it a go, hes the street fighter we want.

              cotto and his weak chin...mayweather would knock cotto out in 30 seconds in an mma fight.

                Wrong.

                Rampage is a lightheavy weight. Maybe ''YOU'' should go sit in a corner.

                    here's the bottom line....

                    Mayweather has more than a puncher's chance to beat any MMA fighter in his weight class...plus he has the footwork and hand speed....he has the work ethic to acquire some grappling or even wrestling...

                    footsteps he can follow if he were serious are those of Chuck Lidell...he had a long win streak thanks to his Fists and his DEFENSE...

                    as the worlds p4p fighter you gotta believe he has those two attributes...

                    BUT....the UFC and the MMA as of now belongs to Wrestlers/Striker. Rashad Evans, Rampage, Randy Cotoure, Matt Hughes, And GSP works hard on his wrestling....BJ Penn is just one of a kind and has almost perfected his craft (conditioning a factor)........those type of fighters will give any boxer a hard match....but those type of fighters can get caught easily by the Sweetscience...bam bam pop pop on the chin all day!!!!

                      Look, I love the way Floyd operates in the ring, but he'd get eaten alive in MMA. Those that think he'd automatically be "the man" in MMA is proving how little they know about the sport. Stand-up fighting is just half the game.. Floyd would get owned on the ground. The guy has ZERO wrestling experience. He has only trained in boxing, exclusively, his whole life. Once one of these MMA dudes take Floyd to the ground and pound on him, and put an armbar on him, and make him tap and squeal like a pig.. he's gonna wish he was still in a ring..

                      I honestly hope this MMA talk is just one bad joke. Why the f would PBF go to a sport where he'd get paid less and where he'd get his ass kicked? He's the king of boxing. He has no reason to want anything else
