Heavyweight king Wladimir Klitschko has opened the door to fights with Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder next year.
The WBA Super, WBO and IBF world champion takes on Tyson Fury on Sky Sports Box Office on November 28 and sees himself - not the unbeaten trio of Fury, Joshua and Wilder - as the biggest threat to his future at the top of the division.
Klitschko, 39, offered Sky Sports an intriguing insight into his mentality during an exclusive interview, answering questions from fans as well as fellow boxers such as British world champions James DeGale and Jamie McDonnell.
When asked about facing British sensation Joshua, Klitschko said: "Anthony Joshua first has to fight Dillian Whyte on December 12. Let's do it step by step.
"First of all, I need to conquer Tyson Fury and Anthony needs to take care of his business. Next year, we'll see how the cookie crumbles.
"I've been trying to get the WBC title and unify all the titles. Due to some internal boxing politics it was impossible so Deontay Wilder is the WBC champion.
"He has his mandatory challenger in Alexander Povetkin and then we'll see. Obviously it would be nice to unify all the titles.
"The biggest threat and the scariest, most dominant heavyweight is sitting in front of this camera. The fight against myself is the worst fight because usually if you fight yourself, philosophically speaking, you're going to lose or win but it's the toughest opponent."
Klitschko (64-3-KO53) is currently in Austria training for his Dusseldorf date with Fury (24-0-KO18).
