Good attitude from Lebedev. The cruiserweight division is the most under-the-radar division in all of boxing and the amount of enticing matchups that can be made far surpasses other divisions, even WW, and the likelihood of those matches happening compared to WW is just not even comparable.

Thurman - silence
Khan - ego
Porter - good to go
Brook - jury still out but looking protected
Pac - about to retire
Bradley - HBO fighter

Top Rank and Haymon don't have many cruiserweights - therein lies much of the explanation.

Cruiser is the best division right now imo.Kudryashov will fight for WBC Silver belt.We might see Drozd-Kudryashov.After that fight there might be unification bout in Russia.
