David Reid Biography

David Reid is one of the most popular and richest Boxer who was born on September 17, 1973 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States. He drew comparisons to Oscar De La Hoya due to his gold medal victory in the Olympics for the United States, something which De La Hoya had done four years prior.

Reid had a stellar amateur boxing career, culminating with a come-from-behind, one-punch knock out win to secure a gold medal at the 1996 summer Olympics in Atlanta, Georgia. This followed Reid’s title victory a year earlier at the 1995 Pan American Games in Mar del Plata. Because he was, like Oscar De La Hoya four years before, the only Olympic gold medalist in boxing for the United States, comparisons by writers and critics to de la Hoya were practically inevitable. De la Hoya’s nickname is “The Golden Boy”; Reid was dubbed as “The American Dream”.

Reid began his professional career, with much attention from boxing magazines, when he defeated Sam Calderon on March 21, 1997, by a unanimous four round decision, in Atlantic City, New Jersey.

He was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

He took home gold at the 1995 Pan American Games in Mar del Plata in the welterweight division.

David Terrell Reid (born September 17, 1973) is a former boxer from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

The only fight out of those four possible match-ups came on March 3, 2000, when he defended his crown against Trinidad in Las Vegas. Reid enjoyed some advantage during the first six rounds, having dropped Trinidad in the third, and with the fight being close on all three judges’ scorecards. He was dropped in round seven, however, and subsequently suffered a detached retina and three more knockdowns in round eleven, before losing the world title by a twelve round unanimous decision.

He returned to the boxing ring for four bouts. He won three fights against insignificant opposition, then lost to Sam Hill by a knockout in nine rounds, in what would turn out to be his last bout, on November 11, 2001, at Elizabeth, Indiana. His retina was causing him more trouble, and he retired before losing his eyesight. Reid had first suffered an eye injury in the 1995 Olympic Trials, and after several surgeries as a professional, he continued to suffer from ptosis.
