Ricky Burns is moving back down to lightweight and wants to be part of a crackling division again.
The former two-weight world champion has lost three of his last four fights, his last outing being a close defeat but impressive performance against Omar Figueroa, in Texas, in May.
That was Burns' (37-5-1-KO11) second fight up at light-welterweight but although he had no trouble making the weight, he now wants to play a major part in an exciting lightweight division again.
"We've now decided to go back down to lightweight," he told Sky Sports.
"[I was] making light-welterweight far too easily. But hopefully we can get ourselves a couple of decent fights down at lightweight and get myself back into contention for a big fight again."
Burns also confirmed that he will be back at 135lbs on the Luke Campbell-Tommy Coyle card on August 1, live on Sky Sports.
His opponent is yet to be announced but has already been preparing alongside gym-mate Martin J Ward, who is also on the show.
And with friend and former foe Kevin Mitchell, world-title challengers Anthony Crolla and Terry Flanagan and interim belt hold Derry Mathews all making headlines, Burns wants to get his name back in the mix.
"I will be keeping my fingers crossed for Anthony," he said. "He's a nice guy. I've sparred with him a few times and hopefully he can go out there and get the result.
"In the lightweight scene, especially domestically in Britain, there are so many big fights out there.
"Terry Flanagan is fighting for a world title, there’s Kevin Mitchell's performance against Jorge Linares and that is just a few names to mention and like I say, with a couple of wins down there at lightweight it gets my name back there, amongst them all."
