Eddie Hearn believes David Haye could fight Tyson Fury later this year after confirming Matchroom and Hayemaker Promotions had teamed up.

Haye announced that Manuel Charr would be his next opponent on June 29 but thoughts are already turning to a possible clash with fellow Briton Fury in the autumn.

"The Haye vs Vitali Klitschko fight is something we're looking at but there are huge domestic fights as well," Hearn told Sky Sports. "The Tyson Fury fight is a big one and I think Adam (Booth) is already in discussion with their camp about a fight in September or October.

"Fury is at the stage where he needs the big fights to move on to fight a Klitschko, he's proven himself as a good fighter and big personality."

"But David has to force himself into a position where Klitschko has no option but to retire or fight him.

"David's got the hunger back to win the title and that's what inspired us to be part of that plan. He has a burning desire to fight a Klitschko but at the same time he wants to be involved in the biggest fights possible.

"The Fury fight is a massive one, it will generate a huge amount of money and money talks. Fury is at the stage where he needs the big fights to move on to fight a Klitschko, he's proven himself as a good fighter and big personality.

"Everyone's got an opinion on him and you need those personalities in sport. Fury against Haye is a massive fight."

TBF Hearn seems to be one of the more straight up guys in boxing, I've not heard anyone that has left his stable disgruntled and has then come out and slagged him off!!
