    Are we to believe he’s the only vada tested athlete eating 30 eggs a week? Surely this doesn’t stand up to even the tiniest amount of scrutiny. This sport is in the mud unfortunately

    Stupid question. Does this mean Benn has to stop eating eggs, or he is now indefinitely allowed to have clomid in his system? As long as he writes a note to the WBC saying "I eat eggs, yum yum" every 14 days

    He’s going on a rampage on IG now, calling out Algieri and Van Heerden for having the audacity to question WBC’s stance. His missus too. Also see Benn has no longer limited posts on his IG, not going well for the egg man so far.

    Hearn is probably loving this because there will be a huge amount of interest in Benn's next few fights. I see them trying to pay big money for a big-name opponent like Brook, Broner or Pacquiao in the Middle East.

    If he goes back to not eating eggs. Like the Peynaud days, he gets sparked in his next fight anyway

    It only works as long as he's winning though. The next opponent has to be beatable or crazy money (or preferably both). Because it might be his last bankable fight for a while.

    CEJ was clearly the cash-out fight so they need another one from somewhere.

    To be fair he has improved technically a lot since then. But his power will be nothing now and I'd worry for his stamina. Any top guy he fights he will lose to.

    Always thought that was the case even on the eggs.

    Interesting that all coverage of egg gate on TV and radio has presenters along with ex boxers/boxing pundits more or less expressing their disbelief.

    The world knows he is a cheat and no statement from WBC, Benn or Eddie Hearn is going to make a difference now.

    Another of many examples of cheating in the sport and very sad that Fury, Canelo etc are allowed to continue boxing without a significant ban for at least 5 years if not life.

    Just checked it out and bar the odd moron, it's good to see that 90% plus of comments are from people who can see through this blatantly corrupt bs. Although I see the professional matchroom arse licker Kugan is liking his posts.

    There is a reason they wanted Manny who is closer to his dad's age.

    I just want him to pick up an injury so he doesn't get the big wedge of cash

    It’s even worse than the excuse Canelo used about tainted meat.
