Regarding Mayo: Wes strikes again. As soon as there were reports of Wes and Mayo talking at Grover’s gym, you knew who he was signing with. “We did not talk about Leon or anything like that,” Wesley told Yahoo! Sports Thursday. “I wouldn’t care who he went with. Our relationship is just friendly. As far as I know, he’s under contract with BDA.”
