Roy Jones Jr. will serve as the guest of honor in more ways than one at an upcoming press conference in Moscow.

A media session is scheduled for October 28 to officially recognize the former four-division champ as a Russian citizenship. The event will also reveal details in attempting to crown him as a future five division champ.

The opponent will also be announced on that day, as Jones (62-8, 45KOs) will contend for a vacant cruiserweight title December 12 at VTB Ice Palace, a 14,000-seat venue in Moscow. [Click Here To Read More]

Roy never won a title at Cruiser. He said the only reason he still is fighting is to add the missing cruiserweight title.
