Fight fans were in for a treat Wednesday May 12th at Chaifetz Arena as colorful boxing promoter Don King announced the June 12th ring return of one boxing's hottest rising stars and St. Louis' own Ryan 'The Irish Outlaw' Coyne. Ryan will be featured in the 10 round co feature of the world title fight with Five-time world champion and current International Boxing Federation junior middleweight champion Cory “The Next Generation” Spinks (37-5, 11 KOs) who takes on IBF No. 1-ranked mandatory challenger Cornelius “K9″ Bundrage (29-4, 17 KOs). 
Ryan addressed those in attendance I love fighting in my hometown, especially with heroes of mine like Cory Spinks. I fought in the first boxing match at Chaifetz Arena, and now I’ll be fighting as part of the first world championship card at the arena. I look forward to showing everyone that I am a force to be reckoned with in the cruiserweight division. I was on the recent card where Devon Alexander defeated Juan Urango to become a unified world champion. I love that. I am all about St. Louis and being part of the fight scene here. I’m still undefeated and soon I am going to get the chance to prove I am worthy of being in my own world championship match.”Ryan's opponent will be announce in short order as he looks to move 15-0 and solidify himself in the world rankings. With powerhouse promoter Don King firmly committed to promoting the former Contender star Coyne, a world title shot could loom just around the corner.
