Jordan Flynn is looking to move on to bigger and better things after getting back to winning ways.

Flynn bounced back from his March defeat to Cameron Vuong with a third round stoppage victory over Mihail Burlac at York Hall last moth.

The 29-year-old also secured a maiden win under new trainer Buddy McGirt and is looking to get back into the ring before the end of the year.

“I want to get another fight before the end of the year,” Flynn told proboxing-fans.com.

“So that’ll be my second fight with my new coach and then a bigger fight early next year.

“I just want to stay active.

“I want to keep improving and climbing and getting better.”

The Oxford man was stopped in seven rounds by Vuong in a bid for the vacant WBO European lightweight crown, but he’ll now campaign at super featherweight.

A showdown with former Commonwealth title challenger, Aqib Fiaz has been floated and Flynn admits he’d be open to facing the Oldham man as well as British, Commonwealth and European champion, Ryan Garner.

“That is a perfect fight [against Fiaz],” he added.

“That’s a fight that I’ve always been interested in.

“That’s a good fight, it would be a good build-up and it’s a fight that 100% I believe I win that fight.

“No doubt in my mind that I win that fight.

“I think that’s definitely something we should be looking towards and I think it’ll be pretty easy to make.

“Early next year I think we could be looking at that kind of fight.

“British title would be nice.

“These are all fights that would interest me and can be made in the future for sure.

“But I think we need to get a few fights in first, start building and then these are the kind of people that we want to be taking out.”
