Eric Molina has admitted that he is keen to know whether he will be facing Anthony Joshua for the IBF heavyweight title in Manchester on December 10.
After a showdown between Joshua and Wladimir Klitschko failed to materialise, American Molina is considered to be one of the likely candidates to meet the Olympic gold medallist but he has said that a decision needs to be made sooner rather than later.
The 34-year-old told Sky Sports News: "I'm crazy enough to take this fight no matter what, but this is even pushing my envelope already. Something has got to give pretty soon.
"Eddie did contact us through email and he did throw a proposal out, but it was just something to get a feel of where he's at.
"I think if the fight is going to be made, we should have something by the end of the day. I haven't heard anything from Eddie Hearn what he's planning now or what, but every time I hear something there is a new name added to the list."
Molina - who has previously suffered a ninth-round stoppage defeat to WBC champion Deontay Wilder - is currently ranked at number eight with the IBF.
