BoxingScene.com was advised by IBF junior middleweight champion Cornelius "K9" Bundrage that he has officially signed his contract to face his mandatory challenger Sechew Powell on June 25th.

The fight takes place on the undercard to Devon Alexander versus Lucas Matthysse in St. Louis which will be televised by HBO.  The card is shaping up nicely as this is the third championship fight on the card to go along with Tavoris Cloud versus Yusaf Mack and Guillermo Jones versus Ryan Coyne.

Bundrage lost to Powell via first round knockout in 2005 in a bout that was televised by Showtime. The fight featured a rare double knock down.

Bundrage wanted to send the following message to his fans. "I am back in the ring on June 25th. I just want to thank the fans for supporting me. One love. Please follow me @K9Boxing on Twitter."
