The British heavyweight returned to the ring after three-and-a-half years out by flattening awful Aussie Mark de Mori in just 131 seconds at the O2 Arena on Saturday night.</div>
<div class="storycopy" style="text-align: justify;">
Former two-weight world champion Haye, 35, is eyeing up a summer showdown with Joshua.</div>
<div class="storycopy" style="text-align: justify;">
But the Olympic gold medallist's promoter Eddie Hearn has poured cold water on the chances of it happening this year - unless Haye can win a world title.</div>
<div class="storycopy" style="text-align: justify;">
Hearn said: "We are targeting a world title in 2016 and David doesn't really help with that cause. It's a big fight and a big pay day, but those are being delivered for Anthony naturally anyway.</div>
<div class="storycopy" style="text-align: justify;">
"I'm sure if they keep winning, the fight has every chance of happening, but right now the focus is on that world title."</div>
<div class="storycopy" style="text-align: justify;">
 </div>
<div class="storycopy" style="text-align: justify;">
Haye could win a world title this year but the earliest he could get a shot at a belt would be in the summer and that would leave it too late for a clash with rising star Joshua as both sides would want that fight to be in a stadium outdoors.</div>
<div class="storycopy" style="text-align: justify;">
That means it is unlikely we will see Haye against Joshua until the summer of 2017 unless Hearn makes a U-turn on his plans for his golden boy.</div>
<div class="storycopy" style="text-align: justify;">
Haye barely had time to shake off any ring rust after his lengthy absence as he sparked De Mori in the first round.</div>
<div class="storycopy" style="text-align: justify;">
The former world heavyweight and cruiserweight champion did get to show his right shoulder, which needed reconstructive surgery three years ago, is as strong as ever.</div>
<div class="storycopy" style="text-align: justify;">
Haye lashed in his big 'Hayemaker' shot to rock De Mori in front of 16,000 fans and then finished the job with a flurry of shots before medics rushed in to tend to the stricken Australian.</div>
<div class="storycopy" style="text-align: justify;">
 </div>
<div class="storycopy" style="text-align: justify;">
Londoner Haye said: "I don't think there are too many heavyweights on the planet who could take those kind of shots. I felt relaxed and sharp.</div>

"If there are any heavyweights out there who think I'm not the force I once was, I'm actually a more-dangerous force now. I truly believe that. Whatever success I had in the past, times that by two."</div>
<div class="storycopy" style="text-align: justify;">
Haye is likely to fight again in April but will be expected to step up in class following this.</div>
<div class="storycopy" style="text-align: justify;">
In New York, Tyson Fury sparked chaos when he jumped into the ring to confront WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder in the early hours of Sunday morning.</div>
<div class="storycopy" style="text-align: justify;">
The British heavyweight burst into the ring just after American Wilder knocked out Poland's Artur Szpilka to defend his WBC crown.</div>

The WBO and WBA heavyweight champion got into Wilder's face as it looked like they would come to blows.</div>
<div class="storycopy" style="text-align: justify;">
Fury said: "There's only one Tyson Fury. What have you got to say about that Deontay?"</div>
<div class="storycopy" style="text-align: justify;">
Wilder kept his cool but replied by telling the Manchester-born traveller to fight him this year.</div>
<div class="storycopy" style="text-align: justify;">
The American, who moved to 36 wins and 35 knockouts against Szpilka, said: "When you do step in this ring with me - if you do because this should've been done a long time ago - you can run around like you're a preacher all that you want but when you step into that ring I promise you I will baptise you."</div>
