As BoxingScene.com reported on Monday, terms were reached for a unification between IBF featherweight champion Josh Warrington and WBA world champion Xu Can.
The fight would take place in Warrington's backyard of Leeds - but at the moment nobody has any idea on when it will happen.
Currently, the British Boxing Board of Control have suspended all events until the end of April.
Because of the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, there are already events being canceled in the month of May.
Before everything broke out, Warrington reveals that his next fight was on the verge of being announced.
"I do believe we were at the stage where we were about to announce a fight and a date," Warrington told Sky Sports News. "We talked about going to Headingley for a unification fight, so I'm hoping that can still happen.
"I know that Headingley were going to be flexible with the dates, so hopefully when all this blows over, we can get a fight date sorted later in the year. It's what I've been screaming for the last few years. From winning the world title and defending it against some of the world's best. I'm desperate to win another belt. You wrack your brains, you just keep training and plugging away, and you're at a stage when it's about to announce, and all of a sudden, it's gets ripped under your feet.
"It's a little bit frustrating, but I've had a little sulk, had a little bit of a moan, but I can't get too worked up, because a lot of people are in worse off situations, worse off scenarios than myself."
Also hanging over Warrington's head, is a mandatory fight with Kid Galahad, who won a final eliminator with a stoppage over Claudio Marrero.
Last year, Warrington won a twelve round decision over Galahad in a fight lacking any real action.
If it was possible, Warrington would have liked to avoid that contest - but he'll do what he has to do in order to keep his belt.
"I just want to be part of entertaining fights," said Warrington. "For me, once you've ticked a box, then you normally move forward with your career. You don't want to be going over old ground, especially with the facts that fight wasn't the most entertaining of fights.
"Listen, if I have to fight him again, I have to fight him again, that's the IBF's rulings, but like I say, at this moment in time, all I want to do is win another belt and be part of fights that people remember."
