Hungarian Zsolt Bedak (24-1, WBO # 3 at super bantamweight) didn´t get to fight on the undercard to last Saturday's Floyd Mayweather vs. Manny Pacquiao card at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.

It was announced by promoter Felix Racz that it was all set for Bedak to take on Leo Santa Cruz (who was making his featherweight debut in a non-title fight), but eventually Santa Cruz fought Jose Cayetano.

There is now an agreement between Felix-Promotion and TGB Promotions, and Bedak will soon fight in the United States against an opponent to be announced. This will be Bedak´s first fight over there since losing to then WBO super bantamweight champion Wilfred Vazquez Jr.
