Charles Martin (27-2-1, 24 KOs) may become the next opponent of Tyson Fury (28-0-1, 20 KOs). Fury fought last time in June, stopping previously undefeated Tom Schwartz. The Britain's next fight tentatively scheduled for the fall in the United States. ESPN TV channel, which has "King of Gypsies" on its contract, insisting on the American enemy.
Charles Martin owned the IBF title and lost only to Anthony Joshua (by KO) and to Adam Kownacki (on points).
