I Want to Fight Floyd Mayweather Again Before I Retire - Manny Pacquiao

In the latest twist of one of boxing's longest-running sagas, Manny Pacquiao says he wants another crack at Floyd Mayweather before he quits the ring.

Although Mayweather has already hung up his gloves, with a 49-0 unbeaten record, this hasn't stopped his Filipino rival of dreaming of a rematch of the most lucrative bout in boxing history.

The 36-year-old is hoping for one more fight before he ends his distinguished career, having been a champion in eight weight divisions, and he insisted that Mayweather could be his opponent.

"It's possible -- very much," he told CNN World Sport at a charity event in Abu Dhabi on Saturday. "I would love to have a rematch if he wants it."

Pacquiao's trainer Freddie Roach suggested this week there may be a repeat of May's long-awaited mega-millions encounter, but Mayweather has made it clear on several occasions that he has finished with boxing, and has no intention of beating Rocky Marciano's record.

"Of course we hear from him many times that he has retired. It's not new for him," Pacquiao said of the American.

Chelsea Boss Jose Mourinho Given Stadium ban, Fine – FA

Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has been hit with a one-match stadium ban and a £40,000 ($61,680, 56,000 euros) fine after admitting to a charge of misconduct, the Football Association announced on Monday.
The charge related to Mourinho’s conduct towards referee Jon Moss during Chelsea’s recent 2-1 loss at West Ham United, which saw him sent to the stands, and means he will miss Saturday’s game at Stoke City.
“Following an Independent Regulatory Commission hearing today, Jose Mourinho has been given a one-match stadium suspension with immediate effect and fined £40,000,” the FA said in a statement.
“The Chelsea manager admitted an FA charge of misconduct regarding his language and/or behaviour towards the match officials in or around the dressing room area during half-time of the game against West Ham United on 24 October 2015.”
Mourinho, 52, is currently appealing against a suspended one-game stadium ban imposed upon him by the FA for criticising the referee after his side’s 3-1 home defeat by Southampton last month.
The suspension relating to his behaviour at West Ham is a separate sanction.
The punishment adds to the pile of problems facing Mourinho, whose position is reported to be in jeopardy after his side fell to 15th place in the Premier League following a return of six defeats in 11 matches.

'I'd Rather Lose Than win for Mourinho' - One Chelsea Player's Astonishing Claim

A member of Chelsea's first-team squad would "rather lose than win" for Jose Mourinho, according to BBC Radio 5 Live presenter Garry Richardson.

Sportsweek's Richardson reported that Mourinho's relationship with his player had hit "rock bottom".
He said: "Let me tell you what I know on the Chelsea story. My information comes from a Chelsea first team player.

"The information was actually passed to me by a football contact. I was told that Jose Mourinho's relationship with many of his players is at rock bottom.

"I was told they're fed up with the way he's been dealing with some of them. They're fed up with his outbursts. I was told that his relationship particularly with Eden Hazard was under immense strain."

He added:  "Here's a staggering quote. One player said recently, 'I'd rather lose than win for him'. Now that last quote may well have been said in the heat of the moment, but it perhaps gives an insight into the mood of some of the players."
Some incredulous Chelsea fans questioned the veracity of the quote, but Richardson was defended by 5 Live deputy editor Simon Clancy.
