That was the tone of an explosive exchange between the pair ahead of one of the most anticipated domestic match-ups of the year.<\/p>\n
There were knockout promises, a threat to send Wyllie home on a stretcher and a brutal dismissal of the Queenslander\u2019s opposition.<\/p>\n
\u201cYour other knockouts have been against cabbies and uber drivers,\u201d Reda said.<\/p>\n
\u201cC\u2019mon. You know it yourself bro. Look at your record. You haven\u2019t fought anyone.\u201d<\/p>\n

Wyllie, though, reckons the undefeated Sydneysider is about to discover the difference between beating smaller opponents and sharing the ring with him.<\/p>\n
Having watched Reda defeat Aussie Olympian Paul Fleming earlier this year, Wyllie said he had been ready to face whoever came out with their hand raised.<\/p>\n
Now he intends to make the most of that opportunity.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think I\u2019ll make a statement on him. I\u2019m gonna go out there with bad intentions and look to get him out of there,\u201d Wyllie said.<\/p>\n
\u201cI believe he\u2019s bitten off more than what he can chew this time. He was in there pushing around super featherweights.<\/p>\n
\u201cNow he\u2019s up against a big lightweight. I\u2019m just excited to see how he takes that power and see how he goes in those later rounds when the going gets tough.\u201d<\/p>\n
Preparing for his 10th professional fight, Reda dismissed the suggestion he was taking on more than he could handle.<\/p>\n
\u201cEveryone comes in, tries to fight, and thinks they\u2019re levels ahead thinking that I\u2019m not good enough or I\u2019m not experienced enough,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut it\u2019s my job to just keep coming and proving them wrong.\u201d<\/p>\n

And if Wyllie wants a war from the opening bell, Reda insists he will happily oblige.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m ready to bang. If you come out firing from round one, I\u2019ll be ready to go from round one,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cI love this s**t. You know, when people come and bring the energy and bring the fight to me, that\u2019s what I want. That\u2019s what I need.\u201d<\/p>\n
Wyllie\u2019s response only raised the temperature.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou\u2019re gonna deal with a different beast. Someone that can punch and has got that knockout power,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo we\u2019ll just see how you go once you get that left hand or right hand on the chin — and if you stay up, credit to you.\u201d<\/p>\n
That prompted Reda to challenge Wyllie\u2019s KO credentials, demanding he name a quality opponent he had stopped.<\/p>\n
When Wyllie offered boxer Dylan Emery, Reda was unimpressed.<\/p>\n
\u201cWho? I\u2019m not sure who that is\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
The Sydneysider then made his own intentions clear.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf I knock you out, I knock you out, but I\u2019m just planning to bash you,\u201d Reda said.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ll be more than happy to bash you for ten rounds. Get my hand raised and go home a happy man.\u201d<\/p>\n

From there, Reda turned his attention to Wyllie\u2019s most recent fight against Miles Zalewski, claiming the Queenslander had shown weakness.<\/p>\n
\u201cLets see if your chin can hold up. You almost folded in your last fight. That was embarrassing bro,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cNo it wasn\u2019t,\u201d Wyllie replied.<\/p>\n
\u201cI came back and knocked him clean out.\u201d<\/p>\n
Reda fired back: \u201cYou were wobbled. You walked out on a stanky leg.\u201d<\/p>\n
Reda went further.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ll show you a nice knockout on November 6. It\u2019ll be good to watch you go out on a stretcher.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYou\u2019re kidding yourself,\u201d Wyllie shot back.<\/p>\n
Their respective results against Fleming also became ammunition, with Reda pointing to his victory over the veteran and Wyllie\u2019s draw.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s the only thing you\u2019ve got above me,\u201d Wyllie said.<\/p>\n
But Reda had another target \u2013 Wyllie\u2019s defeat to former unified lightweight world champion George Kambosos.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe only reason people know you is for losing to George Kambosos. How is that good? That\u2019s embarrassing.\u201d<\/p>\n
Wyllie reminded him of the circumstances.<\/p>\n
\u201cI took the fight on five days notice\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
When Reda asked what he would do if he lost by knockout on November 6, Wyllie fired back.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s not gonna happen. You\u2019re going to get chinned, but it\u2019s alright, it\u2019s still early in your career.\u201d<\/p>\n
