Unbeaten lightweight Ivan Redkach could return to the ring on a January 17th card, promoter Los DiBella told Boxingscene.com late Saturday night.

Gordon Hall, the Vice President of Production and Executive Producer of ShoBox, confirmed Redkach would appear on the January 17th telecast.

Hall did not specify a location on where the card will take place. An opponent has yet to be announced to face the southpaw Redkach.

The Ukrainian-born Redkach (15-0, 13 KOs) resides in the Los Angeles area. In his last bout on November 8th in Saint Charles, MO, Redkach stopped Lowell Brownfield in third round of a scheduled eight round bout.

The 27-year-old Redkach has fought a total of six rounds in three bouts in 2013.
