Eddie Hearn believes that George Kambosos Jr. would be the main draw in any undisputed clash with Devin Haney.
Kambosos won the WBC ‘franchise’, WBA, WBO and IBF belts from Teofimo Lopez Jr. an upset last weekend in New York, while Haney successfully defended his own WBC title against challenger JoJo Diaz on Saturday night.
That clears the way for an undisputed clash, with both fighters seemingly keen to face each other next year.
"He's a very confident young man,” Matchroom head Hearn said of Kambosos to IFL TV .
“We can make an offer to Lou DiBella, Peter Khan and George Kambosos to stage the fight.
“They can make an offer or we can be smart, work together to go out and maximise this fight. Doesn't have to be in Australia, could be in the US or the Middle East.
"It's an undisputed fight so a lot of people want to pay for it, but I do like the idea of staging an event in Australia and he is the A-side. We accept that, he's just had a fantastic win.
"Devin will go wherever he's needed to be undisputed, we will make sure everything's right for him and he gets the best deal. That's the natural fight and it's one that must happen next."
