I bet there are many who would want to see that.

That would be pretty bada<em></em>ss! If it happened, say, by the end of 2014, I'd put money on Mayweather. Of course, considering his reluctance to fight Pacquiao, it will NEVER happen.

Boxing? MMA? Both?

Hands only. He'd get his ass handed to him if any other body parts were allowed.

Hands only.

Possibly, but I think it would be a split-D.You have to remember, Floyd is a counter-puncher, possibly the best counter-puncher boxing has ever seen. He has amazing speed. He has an amazing defense. The shoulder roll defense he has is what keeps him from taking any real damage.He has awesome hip movement. He can sway back and forth, and side to side to avoid getting hit. When his opponents miss, that's when Floyed attacks. He is able to get people out of position, and this gives him the ability to strike with devestating effects. However, you have to take into account that Jones has a huge reach advantage. Floyed has a 72 inch reach, while Jones has an 84.5 inch reach. That's 12.5 inches Floyed has to overcome to land a punch. Floyed may be able to do it, but it may cost him. While Jones isn't knocking people out constantly, and some have questioned his KO power, he still weighs about 90 lbs more than Floyed. One good hit may sit Floyed down. 
 He'd get his ass handed to him if any other body parts were allowed.

But it would be soooooooooooooooo much fun to watch! Could you imagine what a guy with Jones' skill set and athleticism could do against a much smaller and lighter opponent who had no wrestling training? I think we would see Floyed getting suplexed from the start of the round until he was just flopping about. Of what is Jones trained with Steven Segal and just traight up front kicked Floyed in the grill?

dood, Jones could likely throw Floyd completely out of the cage.  Literally.

That's one way Jones would retire Mayweather. But I'm sure there are more creative ways for Jones to break Mayweather in half, ou know?

Well yeah but ya gotta admit it'd be funny as hell.  Plus I don't think there's any rules for it.  Like, what happens when a fighter tosses his opposition out of the cage?  Auto-win?  DQ?  Open the door and let the dood back in (like he'd want to get back in there anyway)?  It's just funny.

Tank Abbot almost managed it. Too bad John McCarthy had to be all up in his business and stop him.

Got a link to that? It'd be fun to watch Tank fight again.

It probably would happen... right after Jones ragdolled Mayweather in a searies of suplexes, the last of which would be the one to toss Mayweather over and out of the cage.

A lot of people would pay a lot of money to see that happen.

That would probably be the only live fight I would be willing to spend the money to be around that many screaming people to see. Just to be able to say "I was at the fight where Jones threw Mayweather out of the ring after mauling him, and I got Mayweather's left eye as a souvenir," would be awesome.

I hope it's a live on Fox event so that one announcer dood can serve as Mayweather's landing point.  ;)

Yeah, I don't even remember what the guy looks like, or sounds like. My brain automatically filters him out.

I know, I tried to find his name to post it here for conversation's sake and was totally unable to find it.  It's like he doesn't exist ... too bad he does.
