Hearn, one of world sports\u2019 highest profile promoters, said the upcoming schedule for Ryan had yet to be decided with a number potential opponents to consider.<\/p>\n
Former undisputed light-welterweight champion Chantelle Cameron, IBF welterweight title-holder Natasha Jonas and Mikaela Mayer, who Jonas beat to retain her title in January, are all prospective match-ups mentioned by Hearn in an interview with BBC Radio Derby.<\/a><\/p>\n “She [Ryan] wants the big fights,” he said. “And these are huge fights.<\/p>\n “She will be in those fights, but most importantly we have to keep her active.”<\/p>\n Ryan says she is preparing for a bout in September, but responded to Hearn\u2019s suggestion about potentially \u201csqueezing\u201d two fights in before the end of the year as being a \u201cnice\u201d idea, but not one that she sees as likely.<\/p>\n “Boxing is not just a sport anymore, it\u2019s a business \u2013 especially at this level,” she said.<\/p>\n “That is why it\u2019s so hard to make these fights. I want to fight all the big fights and I\u2019m open to fight anyone, but when it\u2019s at this level and they are not offering me the right things to take the fight, those fights will have to wait until next year now, which is annoying.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
