“Trying to get that fight on. At the end of the day, it’s one of them I think the fight is inevitable.

“He knows that I’m his biggest draw and for me now sitting at the top I’ve done things that he hasn’t.

“Him and KSI have been talking about fighting for years, I’ve literally came and inside 12 months beat the pair of them, on their own show.

“So I don’t know, it is what it is. It’s my choice now, no matter what I’m the head of thing crossover thing now.

“It’s alright me saying it because I’ve beat the two best men in it. So whoever I want to fight next it’s up to me. I can pick and choose these guys.”
