    I think he should have came out straight away and just admitted it but his ego wouldn’t allow that, his trainer was obviously involved but his name is never brought up, is this because of his gangster roots possibly I don’t know.

    They will try for the big money fights right away now, no point in fighting someone like Josh Kelly and getting spanked cos there goes the money straight away.

    The best part of the whole thing for Benn is your everyday casual has him pegged as this elite welterweight now, which he never was.

    I have said already that this is a sad time for boxing. It really is a kick in the teeth for all the hardworking pros and amateurs out there. Not to mention trainers, managers etc who deserve a level playing field regardless of name or wealth.

    Exactly this he made some decent improvements but never anywhere near the top level. Could he win a world title ? Unless the ass drops out the division i doubt it far too talented a pool he could hope for a soft touch (a la Burns vs Di Rocco ?) In a weight division above or below. However if he does present evidence proving his (and i assume a lot of people who have failed tests) innocent then the boy well be pne of the greatest scientific minds of our generation as he would of debunked years of tenchological and scientific advantages. Who would of thought Connor Benn on the £20 note for contributions to science.

    Unless Benn gets to someone early and they go over he is actually a shite boxer. That fight in Leeds showed you that he can't cut the ring off and runs out of ideas

    Soon as he goes in against someone that can time his punches and has some life in em he goes over. He leaves that chin up in the air waiting to be tested.

    Remember Ricky burns broke benns jaw in sparring

    The one bit Tone has bang right.

    "Benn has information that has everyone scared"

    Just that the information happens to be the system he cheated under

    "Keith, its Eddie. Look i know your on a beach getting fat somewhere with your Pacman money and know you havent boxed on over 2 years but how do you fancy fighting Conor Benn in the O2 for 5% of what you earned in your last fight ?"


    "Keith, you there mate ?"

    I hope Benn makes his comeback and suffers a career ending beating at the hands someone who it turns out had failed multiple drug tests.
