The sport still has to grow and it will most likely always come down to money, but will MMA ever get to the point where it attracts the absolute cream of the crop young athletes?
You see a kid like Clowney just getting drafted #1 in the NFL draft tonight and it makes you wonder if our sport will ever become a place where the best athletes look for employment over the big sports that are much more established.
Can you imagine if MMA had 6'6", 265 pound, 21 year old athletic machines competing in the cage as opposed to on the gridiron or the hardwood?
Of course, there's incredible athletes of all sizes opting to play other pro sports, I'm referring to them as well.
We can dream can't we?
