Tickets have gone on sale for the return of Roy Jones Jr. (54-7, 40 KOs), who faces top rated cruiserweight puncher Denis Lebedev (21-1, 16 KOs) on May 21 in Moscow. Tickets started selling fast with 2,000 being scooped up. The vast majority of those tickets were the expensive seats. Based on the fast sale ratio of the tickets, the promoters are expecting a full house on fight night at the Dynamo Arena.
Jones, a former four division champion, wants to position himself for a title shot by turning back the clock against the heavily favored Lebedev.
