Felix Dialosio, the manager of junior middleweight Teddy "Two-Gun" Reid of Adelphi, MD, has informed me that he is looking over a contract that would send Reid into the ring against undefeated "Tremendous" Travis Simms on Oct. 1 in Tampa FL. That would put Reid on the HBO PPV card that features the bout between James Toney and Dominick Guinn.
Reid (23-7-1, 17 KO's) is a former NABF Junior Welterweight and USBA Welterweight champ who has fought some solid performers over his career. The majority of his losses have been against tough people (Golden Johnson, Kermit Cintron and Rodney Jones to name a few). This one should be another toughie. Simms (24-0, 18 KO's) is a former WBA Junior Middleweight champ who was recently stripped of the title. Simms' twin brother, Tarvis, is also undefeated.
Reid will probably be the toughest boxer Travis Simms has faced in his career. Simms is coming off a win over Bronco McKart, but McKart is past his prime. This should be an interesting matchup if it comes off.
Another one of Dialosio's boxers, middleweight Maxell "The General" Taylor of Baltimore is going back into the ring on Sept. 29 in Martinsburg, WVA. Taylor (12-2, five KO's) is coming off a tough eight-round unanimous decision loss to "Contender" participant Ahmed Kaddour on July 22 in Santa Ynez, CA.
