Good lord. Have you actually watched him fight? Would you say Hatton has had an easy promotional ride and at least one very dicey decision?
Even if that was the case it's still due process as whatever his lawyers were trying to do the ruling tribunal would still need to accept whatever defence Benns team was using. I guess the best way to describe the process is UKAD act as the prosecution, Benn the defence and the NADP act as the judge. Can it not be the case that Benn's team just put forward a very strong defence? I did think when they spoke on talksport that there explanation did seem plausible.
Simple answer is we don't know. It would be better to have the actual decision rather than X said this on talksport or y posted that on Instagram. However waiting for the process to complete wouldn't seve the interests of team Benn who have taken advantage of the legal constraints on UKAD to unilaterally declare victory and seek to define the debate on their terms. I'm not falling for it but it seems plenty will.
Not since USADA took over. They were all juicing heavy before the drug testing got put in place. Which is why the whole middleweight and above old timers started getting knocked out at that time.
I posted a summary of the explanation on here, which was met with pure derision. Benn, the genetic freak who stores clomifene just by eating eggs and chicken. Having read the literature his team were quoting on Talksport, it's plausible but would also be quite a fluke, especially given other attempts at building a case prior to that.
Its quite the masterstroke tbh. It is essentially one man having both hands tied behind his back, the other one having at least 1 free hand, smacking the other guy in the face and saying he won fair and square. If UKAD appeal, which on face value they should do, they will be accused of persecution by the Matchroom attack dogs.
On what grounds? What they would be doing is making they NADP completly worthless and would have no credibility to adjudicate any such doping offence ever again. Not to mention Benn would sue the board.
