    He used to have Ban Ped Cheats and #CleanSport in his Twitter bio and I’m being deadly serious. He’s deleted it now.

    Charlie Sims :lol: famous for his bird cheating on him on Towie and having a massive mole on his face. What a gimp.

    At this stage, he’s just embarrassing himself. If he’d actually ripped the plaster off at the start and said ‘yeah, I took XYZ to make the catch weight, I was a silly boy and got caught’ - people might not have liked it but they may have said at least he’s owned it.

    Its now turning into a circus and he’s digging himself in deeper every time he or Hearn open their mouths.

    Agree - felt he maybe can’t go too hard on Benn with Kid Galahad in mind?

    Yet he has had no problem in the past calling out fighters who test dirty. He went in hard on BJS.

    He has no reason to try and defend Benn and all he did was post a story about another athlete who tested positive for the same drug and what the possible reasoning was.

    he absolutely has a reason to push this narrative the guy is the founder of a supplement company called snac.

    So he can bang on about contaminated supplements and also then in turn promote his own.

    He has cited one instance of a 90 year old competitive cyclist who was supposedly found to have been using contaminated supplements. Even that can be challenged. The fact that he is 90 and would have the natural testosterone levels of a castrated hamster could easily suggest that he was using steroids like many competitive cyclists.

    What Conte did say is that Benn’s supplements should be tested and I agree that would probably be sensible and something Benn’s teams should be screaming for if they are being genuine about the contamination argument.

    However Benn himself has said that he and his team believe that eggs might have been the source of the “contamination” which is extremely unlikely in the UK if you do a bit of desktop research about it.

    Not sure why you are so hung up on Conte’s input. He’s a cretin who helped fighters pass drug tests. He’s not to be trusted and who are you to say he is a neutral with no vested interest?

    However if you are so invested in what he has to say why don’t you have a read of the below and give us your thoughts?

    Really? Or he maybe is just providing an example of someone else testing positive for the same drug

    Read my post above. Conte initially went in on Benn telling people to “wake up” and understand how PED users use Clomid. What do you think changed? Maybe a wire transfer from a Mr E. J. Hearn…

    It's highly unlikely to be tainted eggs and supplements when the guy pissed dirty twice. If it was so easy to pop dirty from everyday staples, every fighter would be pissing dirty for clomid. This isn't like the mexican beef case where clen is commonly given to the cows.

    The most he's going to be taking is a few vitamins a day and maybe protein powder if he's not eating enough. This is the same for virtually every fighter, so why are they not pissing dirty multiple times a camp?
