Callum Simpson has challenged Chris Eubank Jr. to a catchweight fight.
Eubank has fought at middleweight before, but was recently linked with a clash with unified super middleweight champion Canelo Alvarez, suggesting he is willing to move up when necessary.
Simpson is now the Commonwealth and British super middleweight champion after beating Zak Chelli at the weekend in Barnsley, and is looking to make a high-profile fight as a follow-up.
Simpson believes a fight with Whittaker is unlikely, even if he would like to take on the popular light heavyweight, so speaking to Sky Sports, he named checked Eubank Jr. as an option.
He said: "I am at the super-middleweight well but I am big in the weight, so Chris Eubank Jr, I don't think he is doing 160 anymore, so there is a catch weight there.
"For now, Eubank Jr, Whittaker, anyone else domestically top 10. Anyone can get it.”
