Waldorf, MD junior welterweight Mike "Yes, Indeed" Reed made a very successful and explosive pro debut with a first-round TKO over Kareem McFarland of Philadelphia, PA.  Reed completed his demolition of McFarland with a brutal right hand that sent McFarland careening towards the ropes and almost out of the ring.  The bout was stopped at 2:43.  McFarland is now 1-2, one KO.
