Undefeated boxer Floyd Mayweather said he was willing to fight Manny Pacquiao again after the Filipino pugilist repairs his torn shoulder muscle, media reports have said.
Mayweather won last weekend's richest boxing world title showdown before Pacquiao disclosed that a shoulder injury hampered his performance, reports Xinhua.
"I will fight him in a year after his surgery," Mayweather said on Tuesday.
Mayweather's willingness contradicted his remarks after match that he would retire after one more fight in September.
Pacquiao's camp have complained that the Nevada State Athletic Commission barred the fighter from receiving treatment for the injury using an anti-inflammatory injection approved by the United States Anti-Doping Agency.
