    I wonder if this thread will reach 270 pages before the 270 pages reach UKAD.

    Is anyone printing this out and sending it to all concerned? I'd love Hearn and Co to receive it.

    I'll chip in towards the printing cost definitely. If we all chip in, it'd be peanuts. Get this sent to Matchroom HQ.

    Saying that, they've probably read through half of this already when it all kicked off back in Sept/Oct.

    He failed a drugs test mate what do you want them to do ignore it? He took PED’s so he should be banned

    I thought his alias Drama Show was in reference to GGG. Not the ruckus he had when he was being escorted out of Shoezone.

    I don't think you or anyone else needs to be nervous if we get to page 270 :)

    The exciting thing for me in this matter is to see the balance of power. Will Matchroom succeed in getting Conor Benn back in the ring ?

    I'd like to see how this thread compares to the Benn dossier page to page.

    Apparently page 264 on his, is a character reference from Tony Bellew who made sure he and his family were safely home before writing it.

    Eddie is very good at promoting his stable, Always had a silver tongue and can put a positive PR spin on most things, I do wonder if he's starting to think if all of this is worth it. Did he anticipate the public backlash would last this long,? Does he still think he can work his magic and turn Conor into a 'star'?

    It can't help that cutting Conor loose would also make things awkward between him and Sims, the Hearn and Sims family are all very close aren't they. The Matchroom Gym, family ties and the fact he's backed him so far deep probably means he doesn't have a choice now but to try and ride it out.
