Promoter Eddie Hearn has already said the winner will be rewarded with a mega-money payday against the returning AJ next year.
It leaves it all to play for, especially for outsider Franklin, who Hearn told: “If you win this fight, you’re getting the Anthony Joshua fight.
“AJ wants to fight Dillian Whyte. Maybe that’s one for the future.
“But for you to come over as an American to beat a Brit in London, you will get that fight, and you will make millions of dollars.

"So all you’ve got to do is go through this guy to make millions of dollars."

Whereas Whyte is already on the comeback trail following his recent knockout blow at the hands of WBC champion Tyson Fury, 34, in April.
A second straight loss could prove disastrous for Brixton's Body Snatcher, but he is hungry for redemption.
Whyte said: “There’s no pressure on me. I’m a wounded lion at the minute. So that's why these guys are jumping and yapping and yapping.
“What they forget is, I may be wounded, but I’m still a lion. I’m still a mother f***ing predator.
“That’s what a lion knows to do, to kill. Unless he loses his teeth. But my teeth are still in. See there. I’m always ready to kill.”
