Boxer David Haye speaks to SNTV about a possible fight with Anthony Joshua and Frank Bruno's future plans
SOUNDBITE (English) David Haye
"I believe it would be the biggest pay-per-view fight ever. I really think it would smash box office records and I believe that (Anthony) Joshua's team knows that as well. But I think they want him to have a little bit more world class experience before he gets in there. The difference between Dillian Whyte and fighting me - it's a completely different sport."

On Frank Bruno
"If you look at the shape he is physically - he looks fantastic. I am not sure what his mental state is like. I haven't had a chat to him for a while. He trains every day. He obviously has discipline and focus. I wouldn't want to see him in the ring. If he does decide to fight, the British Boxing Board of Control have said that they wouldn't sanction his fight. But hopefully they can reconsider that because what I would hate to happen is for the British Boxing Board of Control whose medical and safety measures are probably the best on the planet and keeps the fighters safe."

On opponent for 21 May
"We will find someone and they will be good and people will be happy. We are going to focus on a good solid undercard for this fight as well. It is going to be a big amazing event like it was last time out. 'Haye Day' on January 16th was fantastic. Everyone there had a great time and the same thing will happen on May 21st."
SOUNDBITE (English) David Haye
Q. Can we rule some people out then?
"(Tyson) Fury has a fight against Wladimir Klitschko so 100 percent he is out. Dillian Whyte has just had shoulder surgery and got knocked out in his last fight.
Q. No chance?
"No."
Q. Malik Scott?
"I don't know. He got beat and knocked out by (Dereck) Chisora and knocked out in one round Deontay Wilder - that wouldn't look that good - would it?"
SOUNDBITE (English) David Haye
"My ambition is something similar to Lennox Lewis. To be recognised as the best on the planet. To beat everyone there is to beat in your era and sail off into the sunset."
