Manny Pacquiao reiterates desire to fight Floyd Mayweather

Manny Pacquiao repeats his desire to fight Floyd Mayweather as he prepares to defend his WBO welterweight title against Chris Algieri on Saturday.

Filipino fighter Pacquiao, aged 35, who has won 56 of his 63 fights, with five defeats, and American Mayweather, 37, are generally considered the best fighters of their generation.

But their camps have never been able to agree a deal over a bout, with one stumbling block being Mayweather's insistence on a strict blood-testing programme during training.
