Eddie Hearn, promoter for IBF, IBO, WBA, WBO heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua, is ready to finalize a deal right now for a unification with WBC world champion Tyson Fury.
Joshua is scheduled to face IBF mandatory challenger Kubrat Pulev on June 20, while Fury has to face Deontay Wilder in a trilogy fight in the coming months.
Hearn wants to work out an agreement, where the two champions would face each other in December - and of course the deal would be contingent upon the both of them winning.
Hearn has already held several serious conversations with Fury's co-promoter, Bob Arum of Top Rank.
"Myself and Bob Arum have been talking to a point where we're ready to conclude a deal and try to move forward to get that deal done for December. There's no reason why we can't put that deal in place now for the winner of those two fights," Hearn told PA Sport.
"We're going to fight on June 20, they're going to fight, I believe, on July 18. That leaves plenty of time for a December fight. We've just got to iron out some basic things like broadcasters and where the fight is going to take place. But I believe there's a real desire from both sides to get that fight done now. December would be perfect.
"To have two British heavyweight champions is unbelievable but to have them fighting for the undisputed championship is something that will never, ever happen in our lifetime again. So we've got to make it happen, let's get the deal made now and let's let those guys concentrate on their big fights in the summer."
As far as where the fight could take place, several locations would be in the running.
"This fight is probably going to happen two, maybe three times. We're going to get it in the UK, it's just whether one, two or three. December limits us in the UK, it just really leaves us with the (Principality Stadium), so we're going to look at all options but first thing's first, let's get the deal papered and know exactly where we stand," Hearn said.
