The former shook off the shock of a brutal first-round loss in his rematch with Fabio Wardley last October by dispatching his latest foe in under two minutes in April.

Victory for the former Olympic bronze medalist has helped restore the sheen to his reputation, though his hopes of a world title shot appear to be some way off the table.

However, ex-WBC interim champion Whyte has been mooted as a potential foe, and speaking with Sky Sports News, Clarke has admitted he could see a bout down the line.

"A lot's been made of it and that [Whyte] name's been chucked around at me a few times in the last few weeks and it's something I'm open to," he said.

"I've got a lot of respect for Dillian and what he's done. I'm my own man, I'm trying to climb the ranks and it would be a great fight, a domestic dust-up.

"Again, he's looking for bigger fights than Frazer Clarke, but the dynamic of boxing now, these fights can happen no problem.

"If it's put forward to me and it can be done, that's a good fight. I'd take that fight straight away. It may be different for him, I understand that.

"He's not getting any younger, he could do with activity - I'm available, I'm fit and I'm ready. So if the phone ever goes for that fight, I'll jump on it. I'm ready if he's ready."
