Eddie Hearn has said that a heavyweight fight between Tyson Fury and David Haye could be made by the end of the month.

The Matchroom Sport promoter, who signed Haye up to his stable in April, said that the bout has the potential to be one of the biggest pay-per-view offerings of all time.

"It is a fight that will have enormous interest and it could generate one of the biggest pay-per-view figures of all time," Hearn told Sky Sports News.

"I believe both fighters want the contest to take place because every fighter believes they can beat another fighter.

"We are now at a stage where this is close to happening. If this fight is going to happen it will be sorted out by the end of this month, that's for sure."

Fury said that Haye is the "only fight that makes sense" to him at the moment.
