MMA vs. Boxing in a WWE ring. Could it work?
Floyd is tight with Triple H, is a wrestling fan and has obviously worked with WWE in the past. With his boxing career probably coming to an end in the next year or two it's not unlikely that if WWE made him the right offer he'd consider doing something with them again in the future. And Brock has apparently signed a deal that will keep him around for the next few years.
Would Brock vs. Mayweather at say Wrestlemania 30 or 31 draw a lot of boxing/mma fans on top of the usual wrestling crowd or am I over-estimating how big of an attraction it would be?
Would you like to see it? Do you think they could make it work? I imagine they'd have to plan everything meticulously to make the fight/match on the night look believable.

Lesnar and Mayweather are two of the biggest PPV draws of the past decade. I think it's a no-brainer that it would draw huge interest and buys.

If Lesnar didn't destroy him it'd be ridiculous.

I feel like they're both too unlikable to go against each other. Both are pretty much natural heels.

Aside from it not being a "believable" fight, I can't imagine one of them being willing to lose since they're both legit fighters.

Brock Lesnar punching Floyd Mayweather in the face?
Yeah, I'd buy that.

Problem is, they'd book Mayweather as the face when everybody will be cheering for Lesnar to rip him in two.

I would rather see Lesnar vs Mike Tyson...i think Mike would work very very hard to put on a good match.

There's literally no way to make that a believable match.

The only believable way they could do this is Brock taking him down and rearranging his face within seconds.

It they kept it as a boxing match, Floyd might win, but in any other medium, Floyd would be roadkill.
