Oleksandr Usyk became two-time undisputed heavyweight champion after defeating Daniel Dubois in July.
Oleksandr Usyk has been granted the opportunity to make a voluntary defence of his WBC heavyweight title after saying he wanted to fight Deontay Wilder next.
Unified heavyweight champion Usyk said this week that Wilder was his "first option" for his next fight.
Wilder is not ranked in the WBA, WBC or IBF's top 10, meaning Usyk may have to vacate some of his titles to fight him.
But the WBC announced at their annual convention that they would not immediately call a mandatory defence for the Ukrainian for their belt, opening the door for a world title fight between the pair.
