Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather Jr could meet in the ring next year, according to the Filipino star's promoter.
Bob Arum said that 34-year-old is keen to make the bout happen should he overcome Brandon Rios in Macau this weekend.
"On our side the answer is yes [the fight can be made in 2014], we're very open to it," the Daily Mail quotes him as saying.
"There are ways it can get done, they have to dumb down the rhetoric, we are prepared to dumb down the rhetoric and get it done.
"There is no real impediment to having that fight happen whether it will or not depends completely on the Mayweather side. I can see it happening but I can't predict that it will happen because it takes two to tango."
A potential clash between Pacquiao and Mayweather Jr is estimated to be worth around $300m (£185m).
