    It's too far for Con to turn around and say "oh hold on, I made a mistake, I did take something"

    The idiot has dug himself far too deep into the hole and he can't get himself out of it without looking absolutely stupid or guilty.

    All these boxing analysts on talksport etc. They should call a spade a spade. At the moment he is a drug cheat. If he doesn't hand over this 270 document which won't make one iota of difference, he will remain a drug cheat.

    He couldn't even answer properly why he won't go to the BBBofC. We all know why. Because he'll be found guilty and they'll ban him. That's why.

    I listened to the highlights. Morgan to be fair to him didn't just fluff him up but even with his relatively tame probing he was all over the shop. Hearn obviously thought it would be an easy enough out like with Whyte but they weren't so lucky this time and once they'd begun they had to keep digging. I bet if they could do it all over again he'd just hold his hands up and take it on the chin. Now he's in this ridiculous position where he's gone on a softball chat show designed specifically to make him look good and all it's done is poke even bigger holes in his already pathetic defence.

    'Connor, you've compiled a lengthy report that proves your innocence, why not just hand it over to the relevant authority so they can exonerate you?
    'Because they can do one'

    WTF :D

    Also to me it seemed he was blatantly lying about the suicidal stuff too. He sounded so unconvincing and came across as desperate.

    The hilarious line

    Morgan - "If the document proves your innoncence just hand it over"

    Benn - "It doesn't"

    Connor Benn came across as a self entitled individual who should be exempt from any adversity in life or any scrutiny of wrongdoing because of his name.

    The arrogance was astonishing considering he has achieved virtually nothing in the ring but earned a fortune due to his father's name.

    The facts are that he has failed two tests and is grossly offended as both not swept under the carpet.

    Ingle pulls all this nonsense apart, also the only person to say "Why isn't Eddie on a missconduct charge?"

    Even Benson has broken cover on this one.

    In other Benn related news Dev Sahni posted a clip of Manny Pacquiao's wife feeding him after the Ugas defeat.

    He really doesn't look well in that video. He's 44, been in many a war and a legend of the sport, if they let him into a ring to fight again and especially against a fighter who has just failed 2 drug tests it may just end my love for the sport. I know there are fighters allowed back into the ring who perhaps shouldn't be but not in these circumstances.

    It's time that someone's life came before money. Anyone who has anything to do with Benn/Manny happening needs putting in a court of law.

    Be sure Eddie will be crying like a little baby on IFL if it did go dreadfully wrong

    Boxing promoters don't care about the health of the boxers. They only care about making the most money possible for themselves.
