Martin Bakole, the Scotland-based Congolese contender, sits just behind Wilder in the No 2 position and has also welcomed a potential clash with Usyk.
“One hundred per cent Martin Bakole would take the Usyk fight and he would be extremely confident of winning the three titles and bringing the belts back to Scotland and Congo,” his trainer Billy Nelson toldTerryanews.

“If anything falls through with Daniel Dubois and Wilder, 100 per cent Martin Bakole would take that fight.”

But Bakole has sharpened his skills for a title fight following his ruthless third-round knockout of Ihor Shevadzutskyi last month.
