The only focus Ben Whittaker is his rematch with Liam Cameron on Sunday, live Sky Sports.
After a contentious technical draw in their first fight, Whittaker meets Cameron for the second time from the path of his future career on the line when they clash at BP Pulse Live Arena in Birmingham.
But for the first time, as a professional, if Whittaker wins this high rematch with Cameron, he will be put on a big -name fight course.
Whittaker and Chris Eubank Jr are two weight divisions, but so were Eubank Jr and Conor Benn, and now fight on Saturday, April 26 at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, live on it, live on it Sky Sports Box Office.
“Great things happened. If he had a few Krispy Kremes, I’m sure he would be weight,” Whittaker said when asked about Eubank Jr.
But it’s not something that an Olympic silver medal of accounts for. “The money is talking. He has his way, I have my own path. I really don’t see that this is happening,” he said Sky Sports.
“If it was in my weight or in the role, I’m a bigger guy, I’m a younger guy, I’m a faster guy, so why would I say no? But at the end of the day, it’s a fantasy fight.
“It’s just part of the sport,” he added. “It makes people talk.”
But they share a promoter at Boxxer’s Ben Shalom, who is intrigued by the possibility of a big British fight with the couple.
“They are two big names, for me the two biggest names beyond a heavy division,” he said to Shala Sky Sports.
“Chris will move into super-mediocre weight (in the end). Another one for Ben Whittaker. What a big fight would it be.
“They are both in huge fights. They are both in the fight with a career defining in the next few weeks. I expect both of them to win and then we can look forward to some major nights.”
Chris Eubank VS Conor Benn will be live on Saturday 26 April at Sky Sports Box Office. Book immediately!
