Pacquiao willing to take less to fight Floyd

Eight-division world champion Manny Pacquiao is open to taking a smaller purse in a dream showdown with undefeated American Floyd Mayweather, the Filipinio boxer's business manager said on Tuesday.

"The talks are already going on. It is more of what the fans want. It's not about the pay (level). That's the least of his concerns," said Eric Pineda, who serves as Pacquiao's business manager.

Pineda declined to discuss the amounts of money involved but in 2012 there was speculation that a fight between the two could lead to the first $200 million purse in boxing history.
