Bob Arum says that TYSON FURY will likely face Dillian White and Joe Joyce in the UK's next fight.
Top Rank promoter Arum stated that the all-British heavyweight match should be held in March.
In September, Usyk defeated AJ and they are both part of a complex picture of possible future heavyweight title fights
WBC champ Fury was told by WBC that he must face Whyte next, if the Gypsy King is unable to negotiate a unification bout against WBA, WBA and WBO king Oleksandr Usyk.
The Ukrainian fighter is preparing for a springtime rematch against Anthony Joshua and will therefore not be available to face Fury in the first quarter of next year.
Arum believes Whyte does not qualify as Fury's mandatory challenger because he has an 'obligation' to fight Swede Otto Wallin after their fight at the end this month was cancelled.
The promoter thinks that Joyce, the British Olympic hero, might be included in the mix.
Arum stated to Boxing News 24 that Dillian Whyte was not mandatory and that the WBC had not done so. Dillian Whyte is legally bound to fight Wallin. We'll find out.
"But again, I would like Tyson Fury fighting in the UK in March.
"And I would imagine that Dillian Whyte, or possibly this large English man Joe Joyce would be among the opposition."
Unbeaten Fury just returned from an 11th-round victory over American Deontay wilder in their third fight of the month.
Joyce, the mandatory WBO challenger for the winner in the AJ/Usyk rematch, increased his unbeaten record by 13-0 with a sixth round stoppage of Carlos Takam.
Whyte was unable to fight Wallin on October 30, due to a shoulder injury. Usyk stunned AJ by winning his three belts in September.
Arum said: "Usyk's too fast for him, too intelligent, and Joshua will need years to learn how to defeat a southpaw."
He didn't know how to fight a Southpaw. No matter his trainer, Usyk will beat him even worse the next time.
