Former 168 and 175-pound world champion boxer Joe Calzaghe has won a court case over his former promoter Frank Warren, being awarded £2 million in unpaid fees. While acknowledging money was owed to Calzaghe,
Warren pointed out that Calzaghe’s “exaggerated and fanciful” claim was reduced by £1.5 million and Sport Network plans to appeal. He also stated, “I am of course extremely disappointed that the Judge did not go further in accepting we had an agreement with Joe to promote his last fights. This is especially so as the Judge criticized Joe and his lawyer. The Judge found that Joe ‘chose to tell deliberate lies’ to the Court (paragraph 138 of the Judgment), and that his ‘evidence was also unsatisfactory in many respects.’
