Re: If Calzaghe's record is so bad, whose is better?
Here's the quote.Well ok if thats what you readThats what Reid said in an interview
We thought bearing in mind how close the first fight was we would get paid a decent amount for a second fight, especially when so many people thought I won the first one. I was told I would get paid what I was worth, I was told it would be an offer I could not refuse, in the end all I was offered was 90k, that was only 15k more than the first time around.
No one could tell me that people would not have been interested in a second fight, all I wanted was to be paid for what I was worth! To be honest I thought I was going to be offered 150k and as I say I was offered 90k, that is why the second fight never came. It was shortly after that I signed for Jess Harding.
Robin Reid; I beat Calzaghe in the 1st fight...; I would beat him in the 2nd!

Re: If Calzaghe's record is so bad, whose is better?
You don't need to be a promoter to see that was a shit offer, but maybe it wasn't depending on what Joe Calzaghe was getting. You got any articles regarding what Joe Calzaghe was getting ?How many fights have you promoted?I don't blame him what a shit offer that was indeed, what was Joe Calzaghe getting ?

Dont embarrass yourself.You don't need to be a promoter to see that was a shit offer, but maybe it wasn't depending on what Joe Calzaghe was getting. You got any articles regarding what Joe Calzaghe was getting ?How many fights have you promoted?
You don't know NOTHING about making fights or the worth of that offer. Proved by - you're asking for Calzaghe's cut yet claiming Reid's is SHIT.
From that link - just accept that the rematch was offered. Money makes fights. Reid didn't like the money so declined. Simple as that.

Also Jones has every right to be able to challenge Calzaghe and have a match. It is far from a onesided affair and it will make money
Re: If Calzaghe's record is so bad, whose is better?
Oh sorry almighty Fenster i didn't know you knew all about making fights, and all of us on here including me are completely clueless ?Dont embarrass yourself.You don't need to be a promoter to see that was a shit offer, but maybe it wasn't depending on what Joe Calzaghe was getting. You got any articles regarding what Joe Calzaghe was getting ?

How many fights have you made ? None, FACT.
You keep your little Frank Warren stories/articles locked away in your diary, then use them on here and think you know about matchmaking.
Don't make me laugh and also the FACT is you can't give me any article, regarding what Joe Calzaghe was getting. Which is probably the reason Robin Reid didn't accept it FACT. Or you do have the facts but aren't using them here, which might prove me right/wrong.
Lets stop the bickering and see if can find all the facts and not just one side of the story. Joe Calzaghe has been known to be a hard fighter to neogatite with in the past. So i would be very interested to see what money Joe Calzaghe was getting, because there is no way Robin Reid would turn that fight down unless the money difference was ridiculous. He wanted that rematch badly and alot of people wanted to see the fight at that time.

Re: If Calzaghe's record is so bad, whose is better?
Reid lost the first fight and was an ex-world champion. I'm betting he didn't get offered anywhere near that kind of money for any fight after that. He didn't want the rematch so he priced himself out of the fight.I don't blame him what a shit offer that was indeed, what was Joe Calzaghe getting ?Here's the quote.
