Silgado headed to Russia for Lebedev clash

Undefeated cruiserweight Santander “Cha Cha” Silgado (23-0, 18 KOs) takes on WBA cruiserweight champion Denis Lebedev (24-1, 18 KOs) on Monday night (December 17) in Russia. Team Silgado departed today for Moscow. Silgado is the first world title challenger from Havoc Boxing Promotions. “People think of New York City boxing promoters as Lou DiBella and Joe DeGuardia,” Silgado’s promoter Rob Diaz (Havoc Boxing Promotions CEO) said, “but there are also a lot of other boxing promoters here like Havoc Boxing. At this stage for Havoc Boxing to have a fighter in a world title fight is huge, especially when Santander wins to become a world champion, elevating Havoc Boxing into that elite level in New York City boxing.”
