Roy Jones Jr is confident of taking on world super-middleweight champion Joe Calzaghe sooner rather than later. The American, 39, knocked down Felix Trinidad twice in a unanimous points victory in New York on Saturday.
Calzaghe is hoping to face Bernard Hopkins in April and Jones is keen to do battle with the Welshman after that.
"We're going to Wales in the morning," his promoter Don King claimed, while Jones said: "I'm definitely looking to make that fight and I'm going there."
Jones added: "I'll fight anybody, anywhere, any time and if Hopkins-Calzaghe finishes how I think it will, I'll even go to Wales and fight. I don't care."
Five-time world champion Jones proved too strong in his non-title fight with fellow great Trinidad.
He began to take control from the third round and knocked the 35-year-old Puerto Rican down in the seventh.

A straight right sent Trinidad over again in the 10th and over the final couple of rounds, a relaxed and smiling Jones was able to pick off Trinidad at will.
The win improved his record to 52-4 with 38 knockouts, and he said it had proved wrong critics who claimed he was past his best.
"All my fans around the world said I was done," said Jones, who won the fight 117-109, 116-110, 116-110 on the judges' scorecards.
"But you never know when you're going to be here, or when you're going to go, so you can never know when it's your time.
"I had a great training camp and great sparring partners and I'm pretty much 'Mr Unstoppable'."
Trinidad, a former welterweight, super welterweight, and middleweight title holder, was fighting for the first time at light-heavyweight.
"Roy was very fast and very strong," he said after his first bout in almost three years. "I have no excuses. He demonstrated speed and took my body punches."
