Gennadiy Golovkin or Ryota Murata could be the prize fight for the winner of Chris Eubank Jr. vs Liam Williams, promoter Ben Shalom claims.
Eubank Jr. and Williams fight tonight in Cardiff and Eubank has not been shy in calling for a title fight with ‘GGG’, even claiming he has the skills to beat him.
The Kazakh has suggested he does not care what other fighters want to do, including the British middleweight, but Shalom thinks that the 39-year-old is a potential opponent later this year.
"A world title shot is on the line," Shalom said to BBC Sport.
"Chris is a fighter who a lot of these fighters want to avoid and it can be difficult. But we're confident and looking at the winner of Ryota Murata and Golovkin. There's massive fights out there for Chris - Billy Joe Saunders and even Kell Brook.
"But from speaking to Top Rank and the Golovkin team, we're looking at the winner fighting the winner of Golovkin and Murata."
He continued: "They both have world title ambitions, they both want to be world champions. Chris sees this as his stepping stone into a genuine pay-per-view star on Sky and Liam Williams will see this as his last chance really."
Shalom explained that while there is a rematch clause between the fighters, he expects them both to move on regardless of the outcome.
He said: "I don't expect that to be activated at all. This is a winner-takes-all event."
