Denis Aleksandrovich Lebedev (Russian: Денис Александрович Лебедев; born 14 August 1979) is a retired Russian professional boxer. He is a former unified cruiserweight world champion, having held the WBA title from 2012 to 2018, and the IBF title in 2016.

In August 2016, Lebedev was ranked as the world's best active cruiserweight by the Transnational Boxing Rankings Board (TBRB). As of January 2018, he is ranked third by the TBRB, fourth by The Ring magazine, and sixth by BoxRec.

Lebedev turned pro in 2001. In 2004, Lebedev won the vacant Russian light heavyweight title in a shut out 10-round decision win against Artem Vychkin. Following this victory, Lebedev took four years out and returned in 2009 fighting at cruiserweight.

In 2009, having a record of 16 wins, 11 by knockout, Lebedev beat Cuban Eliseo Castillo who held a win over Michael Moorer, but was not highly regarded. Lebedev then managed to knockout former WBO titleholder Enzo Maccarinelli. In 2010 he also stopped 2005 amateur world champion Aleksandr Alekseyev by one-punch knockout. This guaranteed him a shot at Marco Huck's WBO title.
