Tyson Fury will fight Russian Denis Boytsov in a WBC world heavyweight title eliminator in Belfast next month, according to reports.
The winner of the fight, which is expected to take place on December 1, is likely to become the mandatory challenger to Vitali Klitschko, according to BBC Sport NI.
Fury is currently unbeaten in 19 professional fights with 14 knockouts, while Boytsov enters the bout without a defeat in 31 matches.
The 23-year-old has recently been embroiled in a war of words with fellow British heavyweight David Price, with a match between the two anticipated to take place during 2013.
