If Calzaghe's record is so bad, whose is better?

[Kirkland Laing]

Well ok if thats what you read

Here's the quote.

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!

I don't blame him what a shit offer that was indeed, what was Joe Calzaghe getting ?

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.
