    Boxing is such a Wild West......

    Never understood the hype anyway, aside from the name, he wasn't really seen as a world leader, was he?

    Surely he was waiting for one cash out fight where he got smashed, or a vacant "world" title fight against a weak opponent?

    I've used Clomid for PCT, there's no way he ingested it unknowingly. The tablets aren't ones you can spike with.

    I don't know anyone who likes Benn after all this.
    If Hearn does manage to weasel him out of a ban or get him a ridiculously short ban I can't see anyone willing to pay to watch him fight.

    Eddie has really dropped the ball with this. I for one will never pay to watch Benn or any other fight that Hearn is involved in again.

    Eddie has really dragged boxing into the gutter

    100%. Eddie might con the public, but he hasn't done anything scummy until this. He has really lowered himself to a despicable low here by still denying it. Benn should be doing this, not Eddie.

    It could be ground up and placed into a drink unknowingly to CB though surely? Although that would either be a malicious act by a saboteur, or the mixing up of a drink ( same type of water bottle? ) with someone who doesn't like to swallow tablets whole. All getting a bit "unlikely squared", and the ingestion route has to be proven I think, even WBC. Should fail the "strict liability" test, but WBC didn't apply that to Canelo.

    Don't get me wrong ... I don't see an innocent explanation without some fairy tale involving copious amounts of "foreign" chicken breasts in CB's local shop or online retailer, but I will wait for that "explanation" before final judgement ... dustbin full of popcorn at the ready.

    Possibly but for Clomid to show consistently in tests you need to have had it for a cycle. I've used it regularly since 2013. It's one of the very very few things I know about. Including its pharmacology and how it's metabolised. There is no way it can have been bobbed in his food or drink through a couple of rogue episodes.

    Will be interested to hear more about this ..... We don't know, ahem.... please excuse my repeating the EH bs .. "the levels" of either test ...

    Just to be clear, I'm not meaning to argue with you. I'm just very interested, and despise the BS trotted out by cheats and liars !!
    I know fa about Clomid .... other than why it's taken, and that it can take a long time to clear.
    I appreciate a Saturday evening is not necessarily a convenient time, particularly this Sat eve .:)
    Perhaps best returned to after the WBC ruling ?

    That's ok mate and I didn't take it as anything negative. I like debating on here buddy and you have every right to post. I'm not saying my posts have any validity, just that I'm stupid enough to have used it for a long time. Have a brilliant evening

    IF the rumours on Craig Richards are true. Being out of the same gym as Conor (I think) it will be interesting if that's clomid as well

    My sources (don’t exist) tell me that next week Benn is going to come out as gender neutral non binary, gender fluid. Hence why he was taking the meds.

    2 weeks from now he will be applauded by every media outlet for his bravery, Hearn has loads of birds signed to matchroom so Benn will quickly become undisputed womens champion.

    every bigot on this thread will be immediately cancelled for daring to question the integrity of a black non binary woman.

    Just read Benn’s statement. Translates as I’ve paid very expensive lawyers to find a loophole against the BBBoC who haven’t got a pot to p-iss in.

    Cheating little rat.

    Did you expect anything else ?

    Why has Eddie Hearn found it difficult to hide his smile when he has been asked about the Conor Benn case ?
