Anthony Joshua has been offered an interim test with either Joe Joyce or Daniel Dubois before taking a rematch with Oleksandr Usyk.
The British star is now set to face Usyk in a rematch after talks of a step-aside offer to allow Tyson Fury to face the Ukrainian collapsed.
He will bid to become a three-time heavyweight champion and regain his belts, but will need a much stronger performance than in their previous meeting in September.
