Pro career

Reed turned professional in February 2013. He fought and won six times in 2013,[2][3] fighting mostly on cards promoted by Keystone Boxing in the Washington, D.C. region. Reed finished the year with quality wins over Ramesis Gil and Randy Fuentes, which resulted in Stiff Jab naming him 2013 Prospect of the Year.[4]
