Liam Smith has some high profile fighters in his sights but Anthony Sims is gunning for the experienced Briton.
American boxer Sims takes on English champion Zak Chellin on Saturday night at Wembley Arena, and hopes that down the line he will meet the former world champion.
Smith beat Chris Eubank Jr last month with a dominant display, but the 27-year-old believes that Eubank made it easy for his opponent with a sloppy performance.
"Who, Liam Smith? No, I just saw Chris Eubank with his hands down, boxing foolishly to be honest," Sims told Sky Sports.
"I was very upset with the performance; I didn't expect him to look like that.
"It was a good performance, but he didn't fight the Chris Eubank that we know. He fought a 'Roy Jones' (Eubank Jr's trainer) Chris Eubank. We didn't see the aggressive, counter-punching Chris Eubank, like how his father fought.
"Him [Smith] and his brother [Callum] became champions by mastering the basics. It's nothing special that they do, nothing pretty that they do. They go in and they handle business, they execute the game plan - they are professionals.
"I think it would be a good fight. An Englishman, he's been around, he's a veteran, and it will come down to knowledge. We both have two arms, two legs, same height, same weight, but it will come down to who wants it more, and the strategy."
Discussing his super-middleweight champion opponent, he said: "He's a tough, strong up-and-coming fighter. I've watched his footage, but me being a professional, I never underestimate or overlook an opponent.
"It's just something you don't do, regardless of their record or experience, or how they fight. You never overlook a fighter.
"I see he's very aggressive, but he hasn't fought anybody who has power. I've got a little bit of power."
