Eddie Hearn has now downplayed any chance of Derek Chisora fighting Deontay Wilder by instead revealing talks are underway for the Brit to face Luis Ortiz.
Chisora suffered a brutal points defeat to Joseph Parker at the end of last year where he was forced to overcome multiple knockdowns to survive until the final bell.
The heavyweight then dismissed any links with looming retirement and even expressed his willingness to face Wilder after Hearn paired the two together in a potential bout.
