Ex-WBA bantamweight champion Wladimir Sidorenko is following his dream of becoming a star in America. He wants to recover from a bad 2009, where he lost his title and two close decisions to Anselmo Moreno. Sidorenko is now training with Freddie Roach at the Wild Card Gym in Hollywood, California. Roach trains many champions, inclduing Manny Pacquiao and Amir Khan. 

"Last week I was introduced to the famous trainer Freddie Roach, and this week I starter training with him. For me this is a very significant event. Roach trains Manny Pacquiao, Amir Khan, and many other famous boxers. Freddie said, he would be happy to work with me, and asked about the WBA welterweight champion Vyacheslav Senchenko, with whom he had worked with," Sidorenko said on his official website.
