    I notice Warren softening his chat about Benn and said he was out with Nigel, Conor and Hearn the other night. Frank is still saying Conor has things to sort with the board but like any other promoter, he’d take the pound note putting on a fight for him later.

    I predict whatever the length of ban, whatever the mitigation eggs or wild boar meat, it will be backdated to the date Benn failed the drugs test.

    Case Precedent - the loser of Usyk's last fight.

    Hearn and Warren sucking up to each other now purely because of the Saudi money is sickening.

    Absolute gold from Hearn today. Says Mikaela Mayer v Sandy Ryan should have been cancelled after Ryan had paint thrown on her on the way to the venue, yet tried his absolutely upmost to get Benn in the ring despite failing 2 drug tests :lol:

    Another training video uploaded with tony simms in the background giving instruction.

    The suspension clearly states he is not to train with licensed people

    The eerie silence suggests the BBBofC hearing is either already in progress or about to begin.

    Eddie did say.. fails a drug test and goes through with the fight, luckily that wasn't the case with CB.

    It's done and dusted and has been for a while, allegedly.

    There have been multiple claims that there is to be a hearing in October (this month).

    Hearn and Sauerland did everything they could to get that fight to go ahead. It was only that the Benn positive test became so public that eventually forced them to abandon the fight. Their only regret would be that word got out.

    I think the fact CEJ and his team still wanted the fight to go on is probably the difference here.

    Eubank, understandably wanted to get paid as its millions he lost out on.

    Let's not pretend they covered up the first failed test and didn't tell anybody. It was only the 2nd test that was revealed at the time.
