    He fights Daniel Cadman in an eight rounder.

    What does the future hold for him?

    Surely a run of victories will set up a fight with Groves or DeGale.

    He's going to lose at this level sooner rather than later. He won't get a run of wins to get to Groves or DeGale.

    I'm sure he's got Brian Magee in his sights.

    Hope so. It would be good for Brian to even the score.

    Reid on points could still pick up a vacant commonwealth strap would be nice to see him go out with a bit of glory.

    Well I dont mind him fighting at this level in all honesty one he can at least compete at. Better than being wheeled out for a Degale or Groves or any prospect v ex world champion type of fight better to be in winnable fights than to just become a name on a record.

    Paul Pender used to say he was embarrassed by having the name of Sugar Ray Robinson on his slate because the Ray he beat wasnt the "real Sugar Ray" I would hope any other prospect would have the same attitude towards Reid

    Totally agree let him have a few fights see where it takes him but itÂ’s no great feat for a good prospect to get Reids name on their record these days.

    Either fighter would quite comfortably mop the floor with him. Reid is done.
