    Yeah, he is.
    Found this guy, "Maestro A" who broke it down it a similar way, with a good reference to a film scene in Donnie Brasco.
    Good to listen to, .... overlong intro warning, starts after about a minute.

    It's proper delusion that he thinks people really care one way or the other.

    The guys not interesting enough to have an army of haters desperate to see him fail lol. Most of us were disappointed he failed and we missed out on the freak show fight with Eubank but otherwise its not really that big of a deal to British boxing fans whether he's guilty or not.

    It will not be a problem :) Either Conor Benn is not very smart or he is ill advised.

    Any comments from Hearn since the PIers Morgan interview?

    And I still haven't seen anything from 'ban them all for life' Bellew

    He's been sharing one of those stupid fan made fight posters of him and Pac - those are the worst. Trying to force something into submission by making it a talking point. It would be a truly sad sight if it went ahead

    Looks like Hearn has thrown Froch a few quid to try and sway opinion

    Disappointing from Froch.
    Even though he is close with Hearn he usually isn't a complete sell out like company man Bellew

    When Tyson Fury was given an 18 months backdated ban, the door was slammed wide open for all performance enhancing drug cheats.

    The hall of shame is endless after many additions over the past few years.

    The whole thing is worth listening to, but what a spot from Adam Cat, absolutely blows all of Benns nonsense to pieces.

    Thing is he could have just admitted he messed up originally and served a 6 month ban and he’d be back fighting by now lol. People can forgive mistakes - we all make them but trying to treat everyone like they were born yesterday is just enraging everyone further.

    I think Benn has jumped the shark with "I'm just going to ignore the charge, and how dare you accuse me, I'm suing" approach.

    If his approach does turn out to be commercially successful, then the door has been knocked off it's hinges. Some organisations/bodies/countries will no doubt be preparing themselves to take advantage of the situation.
