Is David Haye in for a "very big fight"?

This coming Saturday, the Holyfield vs. Belfort undercard will feature former two-weight champion David Haye (28-4, 26 KOs) facing Joe Fournier (9-0, 9 KOs). Yesterday it was reported that this fight would be an official affaire, although it was originally announced as an exhibition fight. Today, the media reported that Haye may have another fight after Saturday's performance, this time against a legendary opponent.

"What if David wins? All I can say is that he has a very big fight ahead of him. I can't reveal the name of the opponent. Mike Tyson, Evander Holyfield, Lennox Lewis? That's a possibility. Haye's opponent is a major league guy," said Ryan Kavanaugh, co-founder of the Triller platform that organizes the Holyfield-Belfort night.

Haye last fought in May 2018, losing in a rematch to Tony Bellew. Haye's Saturday opponent in Hollywood is Joe Fournier - a friend of his, a well-known entrepreneur who claims he can beat the former champion. Of course, Haye is the favorite, and although he recently said he would return "for one fight" and that he has no plans to continue his career, there are growing signs that fans will see him again next year - if not sooner.
