Robin Reid makes his comeback in a six-rounder at Brentwood on the 13th, undercard of Colin Lynes.

Anyone know much about his opponent, he seems a lot bigger than Reid

I have seen 7-8 of his fights and updated his record. He is a typical journeyman that can go the distance with non punchers, but when he meets someone that he punch he gets KOed.

It's a shame Reid has not managed to get a more meaningfull fight. But I suppose this is slightly better than remaining inactive.

Terrible match.

Reid really should be looking to capitalise on the Magee win not beating up guys with as many losses as wins. What are they playing at?

Exactly, 6 rounders after the Magee win and a decent showing against Ottke. Bizarre.

Follows with Reids career though I suppose....

Total waste of space. Maybe he's been shooting 'films' recently?

Is Reid a full time fighter now?
This is not meant as sarcasm, but is he still doing the modelling?
He can’t be making much of a living with his fists because he don’t fight regularly and a 6rounder won`t pay much.

Nice to see him back, shame he is not more active - must be in a frustrating position. Top ten in most organisations but just cannot get a fight. I find it a surprise, with his activity and even (imo) his recent form, I'm sure most of the fighters should fancy their chances - he is a former world champion so should have that as a selling point.

I actually dissapointed me vs Ottke and Magee.
