    Whatever way you look at it, when Conor Benn returns this year, his comeback will be highly anticipated with many people tuning in to seeing him lose. I really hope the Eubank Benn fight doesn’t happen but I see no where it doesn’t in 2024 if not in 2023.

    My hatred for him is impacting my own happiness.

    I hope he gets left on lifesupport via a brutal knockout by a clean fighter

    drop down to 10 stone and do intermittent fasting. got to go all in on longevity like dave palumbo.

    Our generation didn't have as much knowledge as the current era, so plenty of us ****ed up bulking to bolivia with dbol etc in our 20s. If I'd have gone back, it would have been: learn how to lift and the style suited to your body and then 3 eight week cycles maximum to get your natty limit. after that try to maintain for life.

    I'm certain somewhere in the 300 pages odd I called this "im such a lad you know kuugs"

    It's clearly nonsense but if it were true she'd be needing to erupting like Mount vesuvius down there

    Na he ain't going down the ***** eating excuse.

    They're going down the route that the first test was contaminated by vada

    He passed two UKAD tests around the same time as the first failed vada test.

    The second failed test is going to be swept under thr carpet. Benn and his team will throw enough shade on the first test and say the secone test was faulty.

    he wont engage with the board or UKAD and will fight again under a new license.

    We will never get to the bottom of it sadly. Benn will come back unpunished.

    wally downes at the sun seems to know the details of the case put forward by Benn and he believes that benn will be cleared.

    Doubt it. You’ll have 500 Matchroom subscribers tuning in to see him win and everyone else will either not know he’s fighting or not want to pay £8 to watch him knockout whichever ageing super lightweight they put him in with.

    The whole thing is laughable. Sadly, you are correct. Governing bodies are neutered in boxing. Benn is a cheat that got caught but will get away scot free

    Surely if the test process was flawed, surely you'd test the b sample and it would clear him?

    The bottles he passes in would be sterile and therefore a b sample would test negative

    Even though plenty of people are saying VADA aren't a governing body and Benn doesn't need to appeal to them, surely it's in their interest to counter any claims about the legitimacy of their testing. If I were the WBC I'd want to know what VADA thought about the report.
