Tyson Fury is 'set to face' unknown German heavyweight Tom Schwarz in his first fight since signing a deal with American promoter Top Rank.
The British heavyweight disappointed fans in February by announcing he would seek an interim fight before any rematch with Deontary Wilder.
The Gypsy King and the Bronze Bomber were tied for a controversial draw back in December and a rematch was expected to take place in May.
