    Yeah Spencer Oliver has gone full circle. He's a weird bstard.:lol:

    Fair play to him though. He's not holding back but I hope he keeps the same energy if something happens to a Sky fighter.

    30 eggs a week is still a bit over the top, sounds like a Marbella beach body starter pack diet

    Not sure how you came to that conclusion. The post from Conte doesn't even say Benn is innocent.

    But then again somebody who is actually well educated in PED's like Conte can't possibly offer any kind of input unless they are saying "Guilty".

    So Conor's whining to the Sun about being picked on by BBBofC really must have been the big announcement that Hearn said we would here within 48 hours.

    Far from his comments clearing anything up, it made the situation sound even worse with Conor admitting to failing a 2nd VADA test

    Unbelievable how fickle fans are. All top level athletes are capitalising on pharmaceuticals out of necessity. Occasionally some balls up their protocol, or don't maintain their "charitable donations" to keep the suits in order. For the people laughably arguing that anti-doping governance is effective, ask yourself if this is the first time in his career that he has sossed, and if Clomid is the only one item as part of his protocol (ffs).

    I can add that I know of top players from both La Liga and Serie A getting blood transfusions to be able to perform better. The skilled athletes have doctors employed who measure how many performance-enhancing drugs/pills the person can take without exceeding the limit.

    On the market today, there are performance-enhancing substances that can only be detected 3 hours after consumption.

    I admire what he's done for British Boxing as it was in the toilet before he changed it all, but his disgusting need, and it's like a drug for him, for money is going to get somebody seriously hurt. He's heartless.

    Wasn’t the point that you’d have to eat 30 eggs a day on average for the clomid to show up in your system at a detectable level if they came from a chicken dosed with clomid? The interviewer framed the question that way, though I agree he isn’t the sharpest tool.

    The farts that would occur from consuming that many eggs a day would be lethal!
