Why do Frank Warren fighters "get away" with failing drugs tests?

    Fury was the first one where all the frank warren ball sniffers just seemed to not notice that he practically admitted to juicing by accepting his ban and then never speaking of it again.

    Now all the warren arse munchers are fine with BJS failing his drugs test too and just letting it go

    Also note how in BOTH cases, these guys failed their tests right in line with BY FAR THE best performances of their careers where they put on displays far in excess of anything they had ever shown before.

    Just seems odd to me because I'm pretty sure if a matchroom fighter got busted he would be virtually dragged through the streets and flogged on here.

    In Fwanks defence though he would be fuming about it on reflection and he has no control over what these idiots do behind the scene. I would agree though that if they were Matchroom fighters he would be on the war path.

    Hearn once said that he would never work with a boxer who failed a drug test and quickly reneged on that "vow" when high pitched Kelly Brook begged him to put his bum boy Barry Awad on his undercards. Now this weekend, Hearn is promoting Awad and giving him a final eliminator shot.

    "Yeah but hearns done THIS"

    Frankie boy is just defending his fighters. Both Tyson Fury and Saunders (and Hughie) have been subject to a lot of hate on here regarding their issues with drugs so your OP isn't even accurate. Hearn is a major hypocrite however, as I pointed out here.

    https://www.boxingforum24.com/threads/hearn-“i’d-say-canelo-is-cheating”.617265/

    He punked himself out. I'd love to see him walk over to Canelo now and tell him he ought to have been arrested for failing a drug test.

    Hearn and Bellew: two peas in the same pod.

    No one should be above criticism when it comes to failed tests.

    Whether they work under Frank or Hearn makes no difference to me.

    A drug cheat is a drug cheat. Their promoters cannot be responsible for what they put into their bodies.

    Instead fingers should be pointed at Dominic Ingle's door who he himself, lives off the stuff that Billy has been taking. And his father would be disgusted with the way he runs his gym.

    Fury's failed test came before the Hamer fight. All subsequent tests before and after have been clear.

    funny how boxing has come down to beef between promoters and not the fighters nowadays.

    tbh you dont see hearn bash warren as much as warren does hearn.
    bit of jealousy there i think

    Are you having a laugh? As soon as the Wilder-Fury talk appeared Hearn was on all forms of social media and YouTube outlets insisting the fight won't happen. Hearn resorts to personal insults for Warren and other promoters. He is so petty in comparison, insulting Warren's suits, calling Finkel 'Shirley Winkel' and belittling Dibella. Warren actually makes logical arguments in the "beef" such as the Stubhub scamming of the fans which Hearn refuses to acknowledge head-on.

    And Frank doesn't have to resort to making up blatant lies in every single interview.

    Before anyone chimes in to state the obvious that all promoters lie, yes we know.

    But the good ones don't need to lie on top of another lie in order to cover another lie because they can't keep up with the ones they made up before.

    Agreed Twitter would go in to meltdown if it was one of Hearn's fighters.

    I think unfortunately everyone now more or less accepts the fact that everyone is at it.

    Because for a long time those fighters were all Warren had of any real name value...

    So he had to support them anyway he could

    fair point. i think he is more lively on social media than frank but thats with a camera shoved in his face constantly.

    but my point on the beef between promoters is annoying
