Frank Warren says he is close to delivering a super-middleweight unification fight for Joe Calzaghe against Jeff Lacy if they both come through their next fights.
Calzaghe takes on Mario Veit in Germany this Saturday while Lacy boxes Robin Reid in a defence of his IBF super-middleweight title in the summer.
“I have more or less done the deal with Showtime,” said Warren. “As long as Lacy wins his fight then it is a done deal for October or November. Joe will have a fight in between and then he will go for that one.”
Meanwhile Warren also hasn’t ruled out resurrecting a fight between Calzaghe and undisputed light-heavyweight number one Glen Johnson.
“I have been talking to Dan Goosen, Johnson’s promoter, who we did a deal with before. If Johnson comes through his rematch with Antonio Tarver then we can do something.
“If Tarver wins it may be more difficult because he is talking about going up to heavyweight.”
