Despite losing to undefeated American boxer Floyd Mayweather Jr., Filipino boxing champion Manny Pacquiao is still bent on taking on several more fights before he retires.
In an AFP report published by Yahoo Sports, Pacquiao said that he still plans to fight a few more times prior to retiring tentatively next year.
This was said to be in reaction to Top Rank CEO Bob Arum's statement that he has one last fight left before he hangs his gloves and run for the Philippine Senate.
"I believe he'll take one more fight, then run for the Senate in the Philippines. He could fight twice more, I guess, but it sets up better for him to fight, then run," Arum told the Los Angeles Times.
Asked about Arum's statement, Pacquiao said he knows more what is happening in his body.
"I know better what is happening to my body. Just leave it alone. Better not to react to that," he said in the Yahoo Sports report.
He also reportedly denied to comment on whether he will really pursue a Senate seat for the 2016 polls in the Philippines.
It was added in the Los Angeles Times report that Arum has already met with the representatives of British boxer and light-welterweight world champion Amir Khan for a possible fight versus Pacquiao.
As for the possibility of fighting Mayweather in a rematch, Arum said they would have to take a lot of things in consideration to make that a possibility.
"From what I've heard, Mayweather is retiring. I guess they could fight again, but many things would have to happen," Arum told Los Angeles Times.
The May fight between Pacquiao and Mayweather, dubbed as the "Fight of the Century" reportedly earned 4.4 million pay-per-view buys, a first in the history of boxing.
Pacquiao, however, lost to Mayweather after a 12-round battle but attributed his poor performance to a torn rotator cuff in his right shoulder which was later confirmed by medical experts. He had to undergo surgery for that after the fight.
The American boxer has since then criticized Pacquiao for making excuses after his loss, so did his father, Mayweather Sr. "The Money Team" has also scheduled a fight with Andre Berto this Sept. 12 in Las Vegas, which he claimed will be the last in his career as a boxer.
"I think Berto will probably give a better fight than Pacquiao because didn't do nothing at all because he wanted to make up excuses," Mayweather Sr. said in an Inquirer report quoting a FightHype.com interview.
He added that there was nothing wrong with Pacquiao's physical self when he fought Pretty Boy.
"There wasn't nothing wrong with his arm, there wasn't nothing wrong with his eyes, wasn't nothing wrong with his lips. Something was wrong with his heart. He couldn't cruise. Floyd was tearing him up. He couldn't do nothing. Pacquiao is just a liar with no skills," explained Mayweather Sr.

Emmanuel "Manny" Dapidran Pacquiao, PLH (/ˈpæki.aʊ/ pak-ee-ow; Tagalog: [pɐkˈjaʊ]; born December 17, 1978) is a Filipino professional boxer, basketball player, basketball coach, politician, actor, and singer.
He is the first and only eight-division world champion, in which he has won ten world titles, as well as the first to win the lineal championship in four different weight classes. According to Forbes, he was the 14th highest paid athlete in the world as of 2013.
He was named "Fighter of the Decade" for the 2000s (decade) by the Boxing Writers Association of America (BWAA), World Boxing Council (WBC) and World Boxing Organization (WBO). He is also a three-time The Ring and BWAA "Fighter of the Year," winning the award in 2006, 2008, and 2009, and the Best Fighter ESPY Award in 2009 and 2011.
He is the current WBO welterweight champion and is currently ranked number three on The Ring pound-for-pound list.
He was long rated as the best pound-for-pound boxer in the world by some sporting news and boxing websites, including ESPN, Sports Illustrated, Sporting Life, Yahoo! Sports, About.com, BoxRec and The Ring from his climb to Lightweight until his losses in 2012.
Beyond boxing, Pacquiao has participated in basketball, business, acting, music recording and politics. In May 2010, Pacquiao was elected to the House of Representatives in the 15th Congress of the Philippines, representing the province of Sarangani. He was re-elected in 2013 to the 16th Congress of the Philippines.
Pacquiao, while mostly focused on being a boxer and a congressman, is listed as the head coach of the basketball team Kia Sorento. At 36, he also played 7 minutes of one of the team's games and is thus a professional basketball player. He was drafted onto the team that he coaches as 11th overall on the first round of the 2014 PBA draft by the Kia Sorento, making him as the oldest rookie drafted, as well as the shortest player and the first dual-sport athlete in the Philippine Basketball Association. Pacquiao also owns a team in the PBA Developmental League (PBA D-League), the MP Hotel Warriors.
