According to Russian promoter Vladimir Hryunov, former four division world champion Roy Jones Jr. (57-8, 40 KOs) hopes to land a shot at WBC cruiserweight champion Krzysztof "El Diablo" Wlodarczyk (49-2-1, 35 KOs).
Jones fought for the second time in Moscow last weekend, and won an easy twelve round decision over Zine Eddine Benmakhlouf. After the match, Jones called for an immediate shot at Wlodarczyk.
There were talks of Jones facing the Polish champion in 2012, and Jones tried setting it up by fighting in Poland last June, but he was barely able to beat then undefeated prospect Pawel Glazewski, and afterwards the mentions of a fight with Wlodarczyk had stopped.
Hryunov would love to stage that fight in Russia. Wlodarczyk himself fought in Moscow in June of this year, stopped undefeated Olympic gold medal winner Rakhim Chakhkiev in eight rounds.
