    I wonder if a 270 page letter from lawyers could prove that you didn't fail a driving test?

    This is just getting silly now. It’s quite obvious he was juicing and his trainer/gym were involved, do they think people are stupid??

    Has he proved his innocence yet?

    Forget about trying to con anyone anymore.Just accept it, do your time an then carry on your career. You only fight 2 times or so a year anyway so you won't lose that much career time especially if any ban is backdated to when you failed the tests. As for your rep, Fury an Whyte also failed tests in the past but who even mentions anymore when they fight now?

    As time has passed,
    It's become clear,
    Conor's the real,
    Victim here, :(

    From Eddie Hearn,
    To Lou de Bella,
    All state he's not,
    'that kind of fella'

    A test is therefore,
    Little use,
    In knowing who,
    Is on the juice,

    You'll find you get,
    A better steer,
    From learning if,
    He's shed a tear,

    On Benn's good name,
    You can bet your life,
    If still in doubt,
    Just ask his wife,

    So put this testing,
    Stuff to bed,
    He's not the sort,
    To take a PED,

    Unfortunately yes, the majority of people are plain stupid.

    I am noticing a gradual change though in the awareness of PEDs and steroid use amongst laypeople though. You see a vast amount of social media fitness influencers and bodybuilders now being very open about their steroid use and what particular hormones they use. In fitness and bodybuilding it’s no longer an absolute “no, no” to mention drug use online.

    You even see average joes and absolute lay people use casual terminology like “tren hard” these days on social media.

    In sports the sheep are more likely to be fooled though than in bodybuilding because other than your heavyweights, boxers don’t tend to be ridiculously muscle bound.

    This is what we are all waiting for. In just a few days - at the beginning of January - Eddie Hearn / Matchroom will present evidence that Conor Benn is innocent.

    January is shaping up to be one of the most interesting boxing months in a long time. Unless they present absolutely clear evidence, I expect quite a fierce debate in this forum :)

    The usual suspect on social media will claim their evidence proves his innocence but in reality you would have to be an absolute gullible fool to believe he's not guilty

    I wonder if you all stand by you're remarks when he is proven innocent
