Robin Reid on prizefighter!
I just read that Reid will be coming back after losing to Froch to fight in the next prizefighter at light heavy:p
I doubt he wins his first bout. He was a quality fighter but he's been out too long and even though the opponents won't be much they will probably be able to at least out work him over the short distance. Reid never had a fast pace.
Regardless of all that, I hope he does well. It's done other fighters well recently, if they win! If he does win, where does he go from there??

About Robin Reid.
Re: Robin Reid on prizefighter!
Boxing scene also said that Reid was coming back.
He will probably meet Dodson in the finals depending on how its seeded but over 3 rounds I think Robin can hold it together. He was awful vs Froch but he went into the fight expecting to get knocked out quickly. Theres nobody he should fear in prizefighter as its usually a bunch of hasbeens and journeymen. Reid is the hasbeen with the best pedigree IMO.
Re: Robin Reid on prizefighter!
This looks like a poor prizefighter, scraping the bottle of the barrel with Reid.
Re: Robin Reid on prizefighter!
i like Reid but he's been done for years.... saying that i'm all for him making some dosh.

Yeah although he's not officially on the list of fighters, on the site itself, it says the final fighter will be announced shortly.
Theres too manystorys of Reid entering. No smoke without fire and I reckon they are waiting on him. He's probably seeing if he can be fit enough in time becausehed only have a few weeks.
Prizefighter : Britain's brightest light-heavyweights line-up for next Prizefighter
Re: Robin Reid on prizefighter!
They should stick Tony Jeffries in there. It would end up being the highlight of his career to be honest - although I'd fully expect Michael Banbula to finish him off this time. ;D
Re: Robin Reid on prizefighter!
Even with Reid in there I can't say that the line-up looks particularly appealing, but I'd probably have a look to see how Reid does.
Re: Robin Reid on prizefighter!
Looks like it was utter bull shit Reid is not in it, what do you expect it was the sun who broke this after all.
Re: Robin Reid on prizefighter!
Reid wan a 4 round warm up this past weekend against Jamie Ambler to get ready for the next prize fighter, at super middle.
He didnt even win every round:p
Re: Robin Reid on prizefighter!
against froch my brother was getting beat but he dislocated his shoulder, he will walk the prixefighters and then go on to win the commonwealth tilte and maybe fight for the british title, if robin hadnt been cheated out ofwins against ottke he would of been massive.
Re: Robin Reid on prizefighter!

You're an even worse wind up than erics44 and that's saying something.

WOW,only just into March and we might have the stupidest post of the year already!
Was Calzaghe in bad fight?
Yes,like most boxers from time tio time he was in a bad fight.
But any fighter who can sell 35000 tickets (Manfrado)in a fight and then 55000 (Kessler)in his next is certainly not boring.

I was speaking to wayne reeds mate and apparently wayne was handing it to robin for 3 rounds then in the 4th robin had wayne in a corner and the ref stopped it
wayne wasnt to pleased and spat his gum shield and tried to hit the ref
6 month ban
Re: Robin Reid on prizefighter!
Reid just stopped Daniel Cadman.

Re: Robin Reid on prizefighter!
I think Reid beat Calzaghe and Otke but those guys had better careers.
Reid had a great future but after the Cherifi fight everything went downhill and he never recovered

Agreed, I have more respect for Robin than JC. What type of "warrior" doesn't give a rematch in a close controversial fight?? Calzaghe didn't give one to Reid nor Hopkins who were both deserving. Oh but Mario Veit got one? Seriously, WTF
Joe Calzaghe is the biggest scam in boxing in the past 20 odd years, probably longer. It's a joke to me every time somebody even attempts to bail him out of his shenanigans.
Joe had to fight Veit because he was the number one challenger and although he had already blown him away in the first round many thought Veit would have weathered the storm and come back to have won. :)
