    Only going on what has been said, but Ben Shalom has said he found out this morning and the board found out last night.

    If true, what an absolute joke

    You're posting in a thread pushing 260 pages which would seem to refute the idea that no-one cares?

    I wonder if he's referring to the decision rather than that a test was under scrutiny? I'd have thought that everyone would be informed of the latter in advance but an NDA would be imposed to protect againts reputational damage if the process didn't stand up to review.

    Although that presupposes that this is being conducted by adults and we are talking boxing...

    He has stated categorically he had no idea there was any issues with Testing until this morning and Robert Smith/the Board were told last night.

    A 2 year ban right now would be absolutely amazing, he'd go into meltdown but probably spend those two years absolutely juiced to the gills and then want to fight Sugar Ray Leonard at 175 with a re-hydration clause.

    2 year is too short.

    He failed two tests and is not owning up to it. Should be a minimum of 4 given Khan has a 2 year one.

    I'd give him a 4 year ban but with the possibility of halving it if he learns how to do joined up writing.

    Not sure if he can write his name without sticking his tongue out.

    When he slapped the mic with Gareth, GAD would have been a living legend if he just piped up "looks like Roid raid Con"

    Benn responded to a question on Insta asking him who he was fighting next with 'whoever takes the fight' seems they're finding it harder than they thought to make a fight.

    He also appears to a muslim now as well
