    Robin Reid fought all comers i didn't say it was a fact, but i would say theres no way he would turn a rematch down unless the money difference wasn't fair. Joe Calzaghe has been known to be hard to negotiate fights with, look how long it took to get fights with Jeff Lacy, Mikkel Kessler.

    When a fighter goes to Germany knowing full well what he is in for, and fights there champ in there backyard. And also fights Jeff Lacy in his backyard, i can honestly say Robin Reid would no way duck any fights, especially a rematch with Joe Calzaghe.
    Yeah i agree good fighter was that Reid. Thats why Calzaghe beating him with a BROKEN hand was a hell of a win.

    Reid never mentioned the money difference wasn't fair. He said he WANTED MORE than he was offered.

    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!


    All this PROVES is Reid was offered the rematch. Fact.
    Yes but i would still like to hear the other side aswell Fenster, i can't fathom Robin Reid turning down this fight unless the money difference was ridiculous i guess we will never know.

    He doesn't say "i turned the offer down because Calzaghe was getting bundles more" does he?

    He wanted 150k. He was offered 90k. So he said bollocks to the rematch.

    As ive said before, all It shows is he was offered the rematch. Fact.

    I'm all about the facts. Fact.
