Now this is a fight that we'd all like to see again. As long as it's not like watching paint dry on a wall like their previous fight, of course.

In an exclusive interview on FightNews, Manny Pacquiao mentioned that he wants another shot at fighting Floyd "Money" Mayweather. He said that his right shoulder is no longer injured, like he had dealt with during the last time he went toe-to-toe with The Money Team champion on May 5th. Also, Manny claimed that Mayweather was quite elusive during their last fight by quipping, "He was running away all the time." Pacquiao continued, "I was making the fight by stalking him and believe that I deserved a victory. " OOOOH! Them's fightin' words!

The southpaw "Asian hero" also said that he now wants to use his star power to segue into a career in politics. But Manny won't be the first politician to step into the ring versus a champion fighter. Just ask Mitt Romney.
