Demetrius Andrade believes he could make a bout with Edgar Berlanga, suggesting any encounter "would be a big fight".
The two-weight world champion returns from a three-year hiatus against Douglas Ataide on Friday night in Connecticut.
Having not fought since a sixth-round loss to David Benavidez in 2023, Andrade is determined to make up for lost time.
That includes chasing the bigger names in the division - and it is fellow super-middleweight Berlanga that he wants next.
“I would love to share the ring," he told The Ring. "That would be a big fight. He needs someone like me on his resume.
"That’s the fight to make next. [He] definitely has some pop, [but] I haven’t really seen him show that power on an elite guy.
"I wouldn’t be stupid and just walk to him with my chin in the air, of course not. But I know I have much better skills than him."
Berlanga returns himself against Steven Butler on Sunday, bidding for a comeback after last year's loss to Hamzah Sheeraz.
