Ready for a rematch against Floyd Mayweather, says Manny Pacquiao

Beverly Hills: Manny Pacquiao said he would welcome the opportunity of a second fight against Floyd Mayweather but questioned whether the American could be lured out of retirement for a money-spinning rematch.Speaking at a press conference to launch his comeback fight against Jessie Vargas in Las Vegas on 5 November, the Filipino boxer said he would be ready to fight Mayweather again if there was a demand for it from fans."If the fans want it, and he wants it, then I'm open to it. I'm open to any fight," Pacquiao told reporters in Beverly Hills.[caption id="attachment_2224224" align="alignleft" width="380"] Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao (right).

His only concern is to make money," former welterweight world champion Pacquiao said."My concern is not only to make money but how I entertain the people, how I entertain the fans," he added.Mayweather outpointed Pacquiao in a unanimous decision victory in their May 2015 superfight, the highest-grossing bout in history which grossed more than $500 million according to most estimates.Pacquiao, who later said he was troubled by a shoulder injury during the fight, insisted however that he believes he won a battle which largely failed to live up to its billing."I respect and honor the decision of the judges in the Mayweather fight. But if you ask me, I tell you frankly, in my heart, I believe I won that fight," said Pacquiao.
