David Haye's US promoter Golden Boy has been talking up the prospect of a Battle of Britain clash with Audley Harrison.
Golden Boy ceo Richard Schaefer was in London last week working on Haye's next defence of his WBA heavyweight title and says a fight with Harrison would be big box office in the UK.
Sydney gold medallist Harrison has relinquished his European heavyweight title to leave him free to fight Haye and the showdown is being mooted for November 13 at either London's O2 or Manchester's MEN Arena.
Schaefer said: "The British media were telling me that the English fans were pretty excited about Audley Harrison and think that it could become one of the great showdowns between two British fighters.
"They're both very outspoken and very charismatic and so we will see. Ultimately, of course, it will be David and Adam Booth of Hayemaker Promotions dictating which way it's going to go."
