Dillian White's promoter (28-2, 18 KOs) Eddie Hearn would like to lead his fighter to fight Deontay Wilder (42-1-1, 41 KOs). The fight, according to recent statements by Mauricio Suleiman, may have the status of the final eliminator of the WBC heavyweight title.

“We have long wanted to fight Wilder, but Wilder refused, even wrote to Whyte that he would never give him a chance. Now, after losing by knockout, he is ready to volunteer to meet Whyte. For me, this is a fight that needs to be made at the stadium. Huge!" Hearn stated in an interview with Sky Sports.

Meanwhile, the Body Snatcher himself has another idea for his career - he would like to cross gloves with the freshly baked "regular" WBA champion Trevor Bryan (21-0, 15 KOs). The American is looking for well-paid fights, so, perhaps, he will not refuse, although until May 30 he still has to fight Manuel Charr (31-4, 17 KOs).
