WBA cruiserweight champion Denis Lebedev (26-2, 20KOs) of Russia is putting in a lot of hard work with Hall of Fame trainer Freddie Roach at the Wild Card Boxing Club in Los Angeles, California. The return is tentative for March 28th in Moscow. Lebedev was recently ordered to face the WBA's interim-champion Youri Kayembre Kalenga (21-1, 14KOs) and discussions are ongoing.

"I went back to training camp in Los Angeles. I look forward to my next fight in the ring, and I hope that my team will still be able to secure me a unification fight," Lebedev said.
