Dillian Whyte is keen to lock horns with Joseph Parker again.
Whyte and Parker shared 12 thrilling rounds in 2018, with both men hitting the canvas.
Whyte won their dramatic heavyweight battle by unanimous decision at the O2 Arena.
‘The Body Snatcher’ is now eyeing a rematch with the New Zealander, who is looking to clear his name after testing positive for cocaine following his defeat to Fabio Wardley in October.
“There are a lot of good fights and Joseph Parker is one of them,” the 38-year-old told Ring Magazine.
“I’d love to get it on with Joseph Parker, I think that’s a really good fight.
“He needs to come back, he needs to get cleared or whatever, I don’t know the situation.
“So, in the meantime I need to stay busy and have a comeback fight as well, so let’s see.
“I feel like I’ve got a little bit more left to give, so let’s see what we can do to finish on a high.
“I’m training now and I want to be back in May or June.
“Now it’s just a case of training and seeing what comes up for that sort of date.”
The Brixton former world title challenger hasn’t fought since a crushing first round knockout loss to rising contender, Moses Itauma in Riyadh last August.
Former world champion, Parker had won six on the spin before being stopped in the 11th round against Wardley, losing his WBO interim title and a shot at unified champion, Oleksandr Usyk in the process.
The 34-year-old says he is going through the process following the failed test and is hopeful of a resolution soon.
“Hopefully [I’m back] soon,” Parker told Pro Boxing Fans.
“I’m just going through the process and practicing patience.
“Just have to be patient and come with a conclusion of what they think happened.
“I know what happened and I’ve submitted everything so let’s see.”
