Ryan advances after the first episode of this season's Contender!
The new season premiered last night and features St. Louis' own cruiserweight 26-year-old Ryan Coyne.
Coyne arrived in Singapore to find himself on the Blue Team, coached by John Bray, who, I got to say, is one m-effin', scary-looking dude. (Ryan tells me Bray was coached by Kenny Loehr on some national teams back in the '80s and '90s.)
Tony Danza, a former boxer who hasn't fought since 1980 when he got his break in acting,
Ryan Coyne's got brass balls. Days after getting five stitches near his left eye, Coyne rolled into the Contender gym for episode three wearing a headband scrawled with the
nickname of the gold team fighter he wanted a piece of.
Alas, coach John Bray basically called Coyne a snot and told him to ratchet up the humility. The blue team wouldn't let their wounded warrior near the ring.
Instead, Texan Erick Vega (blue) and Nigerian Akinyemi "A.K." Laleye (gold) duked
