Burns moves from super-featherweight to lightweight to quarrel Australia’s mortal Michael Katsidis for a WBO pretension during Wembley.

Last May Katsidis knocked out Kevin Mitchell in a universe pretension quarrel during Upton Park and Mitchell was a undisputed No 1 during lightweight in Britain.

Burns defied a contingency in Sep when he kick formerly dominant Puerto Rico prodigy Roman Martinez to win a WBO’s superfeatherweight title.

“I was a betting loser in a Martinez quarrel – it suits me to be honest and it will be a same opposite Katsidis,” pronounced Burns.
