Joseph Parker and David Haye both want to take on the star of British boxing, Anthony Joshua

David Haye says that he will find a way to beat heavyweight "giant" Anthony Joshua should they meet in the future.

The 36-year-old has earmarked December for his ring return following a recovery from the Achilles injury that undermined him during his defeat to Tony Bellew in March.

Haye admits that although 'AJ' is not on his radar right at this moment, he is confident that he has the goods to topple the man he considers the number one fighter in the division.

Speaking exclusively to Sky Sports, 'Hayemaker' said: "I am looking forward to getting back in the ring to show the world what I can do and that I can still produce the goods.

If I get in the ring with him, I will find a way to beat that giant, he is 10 years younger, three inches taller and three stone bigger and I love and relish that kind of challenge.

"I will be back fighting in December. My foot is nice and healed and I've had reconstructive surgery on my Achilles tendon.

"AJ' is not on my radar right now, but once I prove myself in December and am firing on all cylinders, I want the Joshua fight."

Joshua is currently in preparation to face Carlos Takam on October 28 at Cardiff's Principality Stadium, live on Sky Sports Box Office.

"He is the number one and for good reason. You have the likes of (Joseph) Parker and (Deontay) Wilder, but 'AJ' has all the momentum and I aim at the very best.

"He can unify titles as long as he is not against me. If I get in the ring with him, I will find a way to beat that giant, he is 10 years younger, three inches taller and three stone bigger and I love and relish that kind of challenge."
