Manny Pacquiao agrees to Olympic-style blood testing and a lower share of the pot in an effort to tempt Floyd Mayweather into the ring.

Manny Pacquiao appears to have called Floyd Mayweather's bluff over a possible fight between the pair.

The two rivals have long been considered the best two pound-for-pound boxers in the world, despite attempts to match them in the ring failing.

It seemed a fight might be on the cards again when Mayweather said that he respected the Filipino and wanted to make the fight happen.

Previous stumbling blocks had been financial negotiations as well as Mayweather's insistence on Olympic-style blood testing.

"I am waiting for the fight to happen," Pacquiao told ESPN.

"I don't know what the reason is why it has not happened. It is okay for me if he gets a higher percentage. I told him I agree to a 55-45 split.

"[The tests are] no problem. Whatever he wants to do, no problem."

Pacquiao has already announced that he will fight Juan Manuel Marquez in December, meaning a fight with Mayweather would not happen until next year.
