According to multiple sources in the UK, promoter Eddie Hearn of Matchroom Sport is trying to make fight between former champions Ricky Burns (37-4-1, 11KOs) and Omar Figueroa (24-0-1, 18KOs).
Figueroa was last seen in the ring in August, when he retained his WBC title by knocking out Daniel Estrada in what was his final appearance as a lightweight.
Burns, promoted by Hearn, snapped a two-fight losing streak last October with an eight round decision over Alexandre Lepelley.
