Joe Joyce would be open to facing Dillian Whyte if he defeats Joseph Parker and his world title shot is delayed.
Joyce is set to meet Parker at the AO Arena in Manchester next Saturday night with the winner in pole position for a shot at Oleksandr Usyk's WBO crown. However the winner of the WBO interim clash could have a lengthy delay before actually challenging, with Usyk expected to chase a shot at becoming undisputed king with a fight against Tyson Fury.
Several options could open up for Joyce if he is set to face a delay before making his challenge which could include a rematch with Daniel Dubois or a clash against previous challenger Whyte. And Joyce believes a test against Whyte would be a very fan-friendly fight if he is to be halted in his tracks on a world title plan.
