    Hearn is a cowardly weasel. "What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun."

    Do any of the boxing anti doping agencies use biological passports?

    Promoters often don't like each other. Doesn't stop them from doing business

    Hearn is an actor playing a role. He’s a pantomime tw@t.
    I think the only people who believe he is a real person are sky sports season ticket holders, and apparently the man twenty.

    Seems UKAD are hell bent on reopening this enquiry, a strange decision when they basically backed down after being threatened with being sued for loss of earnings before .
    Team Fury probably have another £80m to defend themselves this time round.
    Things just don’t seem to add up from all sides on this one.

    Tyson reportedly failed 4 tests for exogenous nandrolone (above 2ng/ml) at levels that couldn't possibly occur naturally. So did Hughie. These failures persisted for months. These weren't elevated levels they were failures for a powerful steroid. One test did show elevated levels of just under 2ng/ml that couldn't occur naturally but were not deemed to be a failure. The full levels have not been released yet but at least we can finally stop all the elevated levels nonsense excuse which is just another term for PED failure.

    Tyson doesn't look too bothered. Nothing getting him down these days.

    Pretty much. I think he understands modern marketing far better than his contemporaries. Arum says he talks too much, but Bob doesn't get the insatiable demand for content that social media has created.

    Eddie Hearn keeps stoking controversy because it translates into pound notes. There's no boxing to push at present, but there's an audience to maintain and grow, they will be the people he will sell to when he eventually has something to sell again.

    It's nice to see him like this. He's coming into his own.

    If what you are saying is correct, and Tyson Fury tested positive 4 times persistently for months, that makes UKAD's failure to charge him with an offence for 16 months even more troubling.

    Completely agree. It has never made any sense and makes even less sense now. Reportedly they needed to carry out further tests after the first failure and let him fail another three times before telling him that they were going to charge him and Hughie. UKAD really are useless but this doesn't change the fact that Tyson and Hughie reportedly failed lots of different tests over many months. Apparently they told Tyson and Hughie about the failed tests but didn't tell they they were going to charge them. WTF?

    Yeah, it's absurd. I think that's where the Furys story that they were told "elevated levels" and mixed messages from the UKAD has some degree of legitimacy and was the correct course to take as the central piece of their 'defence'. Legally speaking.

    They were cheating and they were caught but they weren't be told clearly they were caught. Or was it, even worse, a case of UKAD giving them a 'wink, wink' talking too, a 'little friendly advice' ? It smacks of corruption on UKAD's part, and/or incompetence on a unbelievable scale.
