Why is this even a question though?
Did you not see him dominate Dodson the other day? His right jab comes out of nowhere and landed in Dodson's face over and over. The array of strikes he landed with such speed on Dodson makes Bones Jones's moves look mediocre. And remember he was fighting a dude in Dodson who is probably just as fast and quick as himself. This is a testament to his dedication and discipline to MMA. If you gave him 6 months to prepare against Mayweather there's no doubt he would make the fight interesting.
And why ask the question? Why not? You never know what might happen. Mighty Mouse actually stated earlier this that he would destroy Mayweather in 15 seconds in an MMA fight. Why can't we turn the tables on Mouse and see how he fares in Mayweather's playground.
Mighty Mouse is the UFC's BEST fighter -- no one has dominated opponents like him. And he has ten years on Mayweather and that will make a huge difference. Mouse is in his athletic prime at 29 years. Mayweather is an old man at 39.
The fight will never happen just like Rousey vs Mayweather or Anderson Silva vs. Roy Jones will never happen but questions have been asked over and over about these matchups.
