    This is such a strange flex, blowing another guy(Whyte) to attack other guys

    Guess it all depends on whether they can disprove the VADA testing now. Judging by the lengths they have gone to in order to make sure that test can't be taken into consideration, you would presume a ban is coming

    People that try and boast about how much they make and how good life is tend be upset with life

    Its one thing doing it out in the open where people can at least see it but online is just complete bollocks

    This could play out several ways:

    1. There is a sharing of information and a backdated ban to the 1st test result and it is accepted that it was accidental contamination. 2 year ban
    2. Conor wants to fight it and goes CAS
    3. The board and UKAD go for a full 2 or 4 year ban from his last fight in the US.

    He will be suspended at the moment.

    I have been fortunate enough over the years to have been to some fantastic shows,experienced some brilliant atmospheres, seen some absolute barn burners and spectacular KO's - but if Benn gets a 4 year ban starting from only his last fight it may well be my favourite moment in Boxing

    I'm sure Benn will have been warned about going to CAS, even though he has threatened to do it. Heading to CAS with two positive test results and having behaved like a hyena ever since is a recipe for disaster and they are the highest level. So once they gong you, it's over.

    This is the same guy who went on Piers Morgan show and made prince Andrew's interview look convincing

    I still reckon as Benn (as he's stated) has categoric scientific proof he's innocent, it might now be the time to show people it.

    Just a thought
