Floyd Mayweather is considering MMA after vociferously denying it's legitimacy earlier in the year. Yes, the 6 time world champion golden gloves-caliber boxer has been in discussion with HDNET Fights for a possible career change.

"Floyd is considering fighting with HDNet Fights," Cuban told ESPN.com. "We are going to let him visit some gyms to talk to some folks about what it would take to learn. He knows it won't be easy. But he is getting involved with MMA and HDNet Fights one way or another. He is pumped about it. He wants to go on to the next big thing. Floyd is a brilliant marketer. He follows the money."

Floyd is primarily a business man and has always followed the money. Whether he will find the payday big enough in the current climate of MMA remains to be seen. The current guesstimate for highest paid fighter in Mixed Martial Arts was around 2 million dollars, after all sponsorships, bonuses, PPV money, and salary.
