There was a plan for Tyson Fury to fight Anthony Joshua later this year after both had warm-up bouts first.
That of course was shelved after Joshua was involved in a tragic car accident in Nigeria in December. Two of Joshua's close friends and members of his team died in the incident and Joshua himself was hospitalised.
Joshua, who is grieving for Sina Ghami and Latif Ayodele, has to recover physically.
But there are indications he is readying to return to training. A potential comeback bout in the summer could put AJ on course for an eventual contest with Fury.
"That was the intention," Frank Warren said of the possible Fury vs Joshua fight. "Obviously the dreadful thing, with that tragic car crash, AJ lost two of his good friends, part of his team, I don't know what he's going to do."
