    I find it amazing they would have let him publicise them on his site

    :clap:

    Their performance over the past few years has been truly shocking.

    I blame them primarily for the appalling refereeing we've witnessed and the obviously dodgy cards.

    The promoters are going to do as much as they can get away with. Which appears to translate to anything they like.

    Thanks your informative post. My experience is only from knowing athletes who have done it.

    Eddie's done an IFL interview. He's full of sht. Kugan sitting there like an absolute lemon, not questioning him properly.

    EDIT: Kugan is an absolute embarrassment to the human race and to boxing. He's just let Eddie run his guilty narrative all interview long without pulling him on anything at all.

    He doesn't question Eddie on anything such;

    • Why would Benn have that system in his drug,
    • Why do you need an investigation for this?
    • Why would he have a masking agent in his system?
    • What of his sudden growth and improvement
    • What about his gym mates? Are they suspect too? Why wasn't the B sample tested.
    • Why was there a delay pulling the fight?
    • Why the B sample wasn't tested straightaway and why wasn't the fight pulled then.

    Kugan is a disgrace.

    Interesting

    Also interesting that Benn dropped out of the WBC clean boxing program

    Benns Dr speaking here and the failed test absolutely confirm Benn is a ped cheat

    Always has been. There isn't a bigger chancer in British sports journalism than this guy. Hasn't improved one bit, doesn't push the hard questions, licks bum, and puts the cringiest clickbait titles ever. Proper embarrassing.

    Kugan clearly gets a briefing beforehand on what he can and can't ask, in return he always gets the first interview and therefore lots of views.

    Hearn was called out for it by Simon Jordan on Talksport who said he is a coward who won't go on live radio and answer the questions that people want answering.

    Kugan won't care one bit, his bank balance has increased today and he gets the nod next time for an exclusive. You will not see Hearn with one reputable journalist in the coming weeks because he risks getting exposed even further.

    The replies to the IFL twitter account post with the interview are brilliant.

    Everyone calling it for what it is. It makes very good reading.

    completely different case.
    nobody declared Fury had failed a test until about 18 months after he allegedly failed the test. not even in private. UKAD messed up. they allege 'delays in results management', whatever that means. the fight with Hammer was long forgotten.

    it hardly compares to the news coming out 3 days before a big hyped fight, which already has been the subject of dispute and controversy over the conditions allowed to be imposed on Chris Eubank Jr. regarding weight and rehydration.
    & the promoter and others in the game (including Fury, by the way) rallying around for the fight to go ahead.
    the feeling that Chris was having the deck thoroughly stacked against him has been vindicated.

    the promoter clearly has no regard for boxers' safety whatsoever.

    I know it's s**t but you have to take them all with a pince of salt. He doesn't have to answer anything he doesn't want, he's giving a voluntary interview to the media.

    The only way you're going to get the truth is if he's broken the law and the CPS get him in the dock with a prosecutor firing questions at him. Thank god this fight was stopped because if anything horrific had happened to either fighter and he'd masked these issues he may have found himself there.
