Heavyweight contender Dillian Whyte has a list of five possible opponents for planned return on July 13, according to promoter Eddie Hearn.
Whyte, who is the WBC's number 1 contender in the division, has been out of the ring since knocking out Derek Chisora in their December rematch.
"We wait on a decision from the WBC," Hearn said to Sky Sports. "Obviously everybody knows they were at a meeting and mediation in London some weeks ago. We expected a decision last week, we're hoping it will come this week."
Whyte is pushing to get a mandatory crack at the WBC belt.
Current champion, Deontay Wilder, will make a mandatory defense against Dominic Breazeale on May 18th at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York.
Whyte would like to become the mandatory challenger to the winner of that bout.
Should Wilder win, he would like be given the opportunity to make a voluntary defense before having to make another mandatory.
Even if the WBC approves Whyte's mandatory request, the British boxer wants to be in a "real" fight in July.
"Plans are in place for his July fight already, but we are also keen to know we get what we requested from the WBC and once we know what that is, which we hope will be tomorrow, we will be in a position to announce his next fight and look at his plans in more detail," Hearn said.
"There are probably about five options for Dillian in July. He wants to have a proper fight, even if he's mandatory for the winner of Wilder-Breazeale. He wants to have a proper fight and that's Dillian Whyte all over.
"The names we are looking at are all good fights and like I said, once we get that ruling, we will be pulling the trigger and making that announcement."
