PBC is planning a Fulton vs. Figueroa 2 for the vacant championship a couple of weeks ago, but that fight was already fizzled.
Fulton and Inoue have long thought about the possibility of facing each other and that fight could be the way for the "Monster" to enter the Top 10 best boxers in history. On the other hand, Figueroa will go for an interim title against Masaygo

Figueroa is 1 of my favourite action fighters.  He just doesn't stop throwing punches!!!! I'm 1 of the people that believe Figueroa should've gotten the decision over Fulton!!!! Of course it was no robbery, it was an awesome, razor close action fight that could've went either way.

About Vargas, I also doubt that he'll fight Figueroa next, he'll be hoping that Magsayo wins that fight.

The fight I really want to see at Featherweight is Brandon Figueroa vs winner of next weekends Leigh Wood Bronco Lara fight.

Imagine the chaos, especially if its Lara vs Figueroa!!!!!

Another guy who is going to challenge for no.1 Featherweight is Robeisy Ramirez.  Completely different style of boxer from th  Figueroa/Lara wild style that I love but Ramirez has adapted his excellent 2x Olympic Gold medal winning Cuban amateur style to the pro game better and better as each fight passes
 A supreme technical boxer who has developed the ability to take people out!!!!

Featherweight could be a great division over the next few years.  Of course,  as always with boxing, we just have to hope that they'll actually face off vs each other.

Someone needs to bring back the World Boxing Super Series.   Loo at the winners of the previous tournaments.  Usyk and Inoue. All World class, all time greats!!!

Figueroa is a warrior who always goes back and forth. Many people dismiss him because of the "Pretty Boy" stigma, but 
Figueroa has shown that he has hands and can take punches. 

I agree with you that Figueroa beat Fulton, Fulton was about to be stopped a good couple of times in that fight, it is difficult for me to understand that for the judges in that fight Fulton Jr. won 6 or more rounds.

And of course, Vargas will be supporting with all his Magsayo: Vargas against Figueroa has 0 chances to use his scope or reach as against his other opponents and very likely Heartbreaker will stop him (Magsayo managed to knock him down and the decision of that fight was also controversial).
