Reid Faces Phillips on ESPN2 August 9!

Adelphi, MD junior middleweight Teddy "Two-Gun" Reid returns to action on Wednesday, August 9 when he faces former IBF and WBO Junior Middleweight champion Verno Phillips at the Foxwoods in Mashantucket, CT. The bout will be televised by ESPN2.

Reid (23-7-2, 17 KO's) returns to the scene of his last bout, a 10-round draw against J.C. Candelo on January 20. In that bout, Reid lost two points for roughhousing.

Ironically, Phillips' last bout was also against Candelo on April 5 in New Orleans. Phillips (39-10-1, 20 KO's) won a 10-round unanimous decision.
