The American fighter beat the Filipino on points in a hotly-anticipated fight in Las Vegas on the weekend.
And now Mayweather is said to have told ESPN journalist Stephen A. Smith that we would be willing to fight Pacquiao again - once he recoveres from shoulder surgery to repair a tear in his rotator cuff.
"I will fight him in a year after his surgery," Mayweather is reported to have told Smith in a text message.
The move is something of an about turn for Mayweather, who said after the fight: "My last fight is in September, and then it's time for me to hang it up."

Two people in Nevada filed a lawsuit on Tuesday against Pacquiao, alleging the boxer defrauded ticket buyers, television viewers and gamblers by failing to disclose a pre-bout shoulder injury ahead of his fight against Mayweather.
The lawsuit was filed in U.S. District Court in Nevada and seeks status as a class action. It asks for all relief allowed by law.
The fighter could already be in legal hot water after failing to disclose his shoulder injury before his fight.
The Filipino lost Saturday's clash in Vegas by unanimous decision, but complained of a shoulder problem in the aftermath of the defeat.
In a pre-fight questionnaire, one of the questions read: "Have you had any injury to your shoulders, elbows, or hands that needed evaluation or examination? If yes, explain..." Pacquiao ticked 'no'.
The only things Pacquiao disclosed in the questionnaire were the medicines which he had taken in the last month.

“Disclosure is a big thing for us, and honesty,” Cisco Aguilar, the Nevada Athletic Commissioner chairman told the Daily News on Monday.
“The commission at some point will have to discuss (Pacquiao's medical questionnaire). I've got to run through the process with the (Nevada) Attorney General (Adam Laxalt). But they do sign that document under the penalty of perjury.
“We will gather all the facts and follow the circumstances," he continued. “At some point we will have some discussion. As a licensee of the commission you want to make sure fighters are giving you up-to-date information.
“The medications he was taking were disclosed on his medical questionnaire, but not the actual injury.
“This isn't our first fight. This is our business. There is a process, and when you try to screw with the process, it's not going to work for you.“

In his client's defence, Koncz told the New York Times: "Number one, Manny didn't check the box. I checked it. It was just an inadvertent mistake. If I was trying to hide anything, would I have listed all the medications on the sheet that he intended to use?
"We weren't trying to hide anything. I just don't think I read the questionnaire correctly.
"I’m going to take full responsibility for what happened. The wrong box was checked. But I think part of the responsibility also lies with the commission. Wouldn't you ask a question about all these medications (on the questionnaire)?
