David Haye claims he has been handed the chance to meet Vitali Klitschko for the WBC heavyweight title.
Haye, who retired from boxing in November but has always said he would return to the ring to fight Klitschko, will attempt to go one better than rival Dereck Chisora.
Chisora lost to Klitschko on a unanimous points decision in Munich last month - and, at the post-fight press conference, he brawled with Haye. Chisora has subsequently been banned indefinitely by the WBC, while he also faces a British Boxing Board of Control (BBBC) hearing.
Haye is yet to be punished, but he could face sanctions if and when he looks to get a licence from the BBBC, which has hinted Haye's application would not be helped by his actions in Munich.
But that was apparently not a concern of Haye's on Saturday when, on the night Wladimir Klitschko defeated Jean-Marc Mormeck, he took to Twitter.
Haye tweeted: "Vitali has just finally agreed to fight me in a live [German television station] RTL interview!!! He told me I will be his next fight!! Let's Get Ready To Rumble!!! :D".
Vitali has called out Haye for what is likely to be one of the Ukrainian's final fights before hanging up his gloves to focus on a political career.
