David Haye has ruled out facing Manuel Charr in his comeback fight on June 29 in Manchester. Telegraph Sport understands that Andrew Wawrzyk, the Polish fighter who is ranked No 7 by the World Boxing Association and No 14 by the World Boxing Council, has become the frontrunner to face Haye in his next contest. Wawrzyk, 25, is unbeaten in 27 contests. Haye, 32, has a record of 26-2, and has won a world heavyweight title and was formerly the world cruiserweight champion.

A camp insider at Hayemaker told Telegraph Sport that Charr "will not be the opponent" when Haye makes his return to the ring with the intention of fighting his way to a mandatory position against the Klitschko brothers, who between them hold the four portions of the world heavyweight title. Charr has taunted Haye repeatedly on his Twitter account, even creating a poster of himself holding the severed head of the British heavyweight, who held the WBA heavyweight title but lost it to Wladimir Klitschko in Germany in 2011.

The Germany-based Syrian interrupted the post-fight press conference for Haye-Dereck Chisora in July last year to call out Haye, insisting he would fight the Briton down the line.
