via an 8th-round TKO, and it was Lacy who went on to fight Calzaghe and lose a lop-sided 12-round decision. After the Lacy fight, Reid beat Jessie Brinkley and then suffered a retired hurt defeat at the hands of Carl Froch in a British super-middleweight fight in November 2007, he announced his decision to retire soon after this fight. In January 2009 Reid said on Liverpool's City Talk radio station that he would like to come out of retirement and fight Tony Dodson for the British super-middleweight title, providing Dodson overcomes Brian Magee on 28 March at the Echo Arena, Liverpool, Merseyside. “I would love to fight Tony Dodson for the British super-middleweight title at the ECHO Arena, no disrespect to Tony as I think he is a great fighter, but I have never held the Lonsdale Belt and would love the chance to put it around my waist. “Obviously, I feel like I still have something left to offer the sport and a fight with Tony in Liverpool – two Scousers going at it for the British title – would be the fight that Liverpool fight fans would want to see most.” Reid competed in the super middleweight prizefighter competition on 23 March 2011, losing in his first fight via unanimous decision to Tobias Webb. He was to fight three more times over the following year, two victories being followed by a fifth-round defeat which sent him back into retirement. Personal life Reid is mixed race; he is half black Jamaican. In 2010, Reid took over a lead role in the controversial movie Killer Bitch from the MMA fighter Alex Reid who had walked out of the film. His latest film role is in 'Mob Handed'. Reid still retains strong ties to professional boxing, acting as a judge. In September 2016 he joined the Advisory Board of the World Boxing Federation.
