Anthony Joshua twice lost to Oleksandr Usyk.
So it leaves promoter Alex Krassyuk expecting a third bout to be a tough sell for fans.
Krassyuk told Boxing King Media: “Anthony Joshua was talking about the third fight. He’s a great champ.
“He’s changed a lot since the two fights with Usyk. We’ve seen him going down and see him rising up.
“It’s also a complicated fight to make. I’ll tell you why – because now we are on different levels.”The first fight, Usyk was almost no-name and Anthony Joshua was a massive star in the UK.
“After he beat him twice, Anthony Joshua still remains a massive star here no matter what.
“So this fight might be something that attracts attention from the whole world.”
Usyk, 37, is believed to have earned around £50million for his pair of wins over Joshua, 34.
But Krassyuk wants to quadruple that figure for a trilogy clash.
Usyk found Tyson Fury was his toughest opponent
He said: “Let’s stay with $200 million.”
Usyk most recently beat Tyson Fury, 35, in May to become the first four-belt undisputed heavyweight champion.
But he vacated the IBF belt to proceed with his December 21 rematch with Fury back in Saudi Arabia.
Daniel Dubois, 26, was elevated from interim champ and defends the belt against Joshua on September 21 at Wembley.
