Francesca Hennessy is in talks to fight undisputed bantamweight world champion Dina Thorslund in the United Kingdom later this year, BBC Sport understands.
Promotional outfit Boxxer has offered Danish fighter Thorslund close to $250,000 (£183,000) to face 21-year-old Hennessy in the UK in November or December.
Hennessy, the number one ranked challenger with the WBC, would become the youngest undisputed world champion in four-belt history if she defeats Thorslund.
“I can confirm we have made Dina Thorslund an offer that we believe represents the highest payday of her career to come to the UK and face Francesca Hennessy,” her promoter Ben Shalom told BBC Sport.
“Fran is one of the most exciting young fighters in the sport and has the opportunity to make history by becoming the youngest-ever undisputed world champion. This would be a huge fight, and we’re very keen to make it happen.”
Thorslund’s manager Lee Eaton confirmed to BBC Sport they are in talks with Hennessy’s representatives.
Eaton said Thorslund’s promoters Most Valuable Promotions (MVP) has received the offer but it lacked detail, with no date, venue or broadcaster mentioned.
“They [Boxxer] know what gets the fight done if they are really interested in doing the fight and not just using Dina’s name for clout,” Eaton added.
