    Simon Jordan took Benn to the cleaners but I think the mental elf stuff caused him to soften his approach lol. He was saying he likes connor and he's a good kid lmao.

    Anyone else think that the previously feather fisted Ebanie Bridges has been juicing with Conor and Co?

    Probably the source of Benn's dodgy eggs.

    His defence vs the BBBoC appears to lie solely on the theory that as they have made a mess of cases in the past, can they not please do the same just this once (or twice in his case) for him

    He’s just put up an IG story basking in the fact that he is trending on Twitter still for his car crash shades of Prince Andrew interview.

    He needs to realise how irrelevant he will become fighting outside the UK

    It seems like Benn is trying to force The BBoC into submission by threatening to sue them for millions.

    The Michael Watson verdict again the Board in 1999 almost bankrupted them and Warren had to bail them out, by loaning them money in advance of fees on future promotions.

    Unfortunately, Benn will probably get away with this due his stature along with been being aligned with Hearn and Matchroom, but nothing from his interview with Piers Morgan has changed my opinion of him. If anything as Eubank Jnr said this morning it probably confirms his guilt more than anything else.

    Plus, when you consider what happened in the Eubank v Smith fight, the fact that the Benn fight almost went ahead highlights just how corrupt the sport is at the top level. At 157 lbs with a rehydration cause in place, Eubank's life would have been in serious danger had that fight gone head, considering the damage Smith did to him.

    It also looks like Benn is revelling in all the attention he is getting on social media and how he is trending, which just highlights his narcissism and sociopathy. His whole persona since turning pro has been a mirrored version of Nigel's which is also incredibly narcissistic, and just makes him even more unlikeable and fake.

    Benn is actually more of act than either Jake Paul or Tommy Fury.

    What happened to having science that would prove him innocent. It’s been months and he’s offered absolutely NO excuse for failing one drugs test let alone two. This utterly PATHETIC narrative that he’s the victim of some sort of injustice needs calling out. No word on the B sample results of either test. It’s all just vague references to stuff that might have happened during the test procedure and any questions asked about gets rebuffed using the tried and tested “I can’t say for legal reasons”.

    he is guilty

    The Matchroom Mafia put Ebanie forward this morning for the DAZN UK's Laura Woods to interview her about Benn's failed tests.

    Very insulting for listeners having to endure that garbage this morning and both were obviously following a legal script approved by Team Benn and Team Matchroom.

    The clown failed 2 tests, accept liability, accept punishment and move on with life.

    I noticed that too. Was looking forward to hearing someone from the boxing world come on to have their say but when she was announced as the guest I just turned it off.

    This, 100%. Say what you like about Jake Paul, he's a showman, but I wouldn't imagine he's an awful lot different in private. The sort of precocious kid that ends up defaulting to a career in performing arts without trying too hard.

    Benn is probably a nice kid who got in amongst idiots and bigheads.

    The excuse I can give for Benn Snr is that he grew up hard, and life wasn't easy for children of Jamaican and Asian immigrants during the 60s-80s.

    Benn Jnr though grew up with a silver spoon in Australia or wherever. So I don't get where he gets this essex gangster/roadman attitude from.
