Comments Thread For: Algieri on Benn's Positive Test: Not Surprised, I Heard Rumors He Wasn't a Clean Fighter

[P to the J]

Hahaha, yes you're right , he mistimed his pct didn't he.

Didn't Benn have 20+ amateur fights?

Ah, my mistake. Yeah, it has been said he's had a number of few amateur fights, and I've obviously discounted it because there weren't many of them and he doesn't fight like a guy that's had them

Yes, I understand that he won't have proof but many on the inside have knowledge of what's really going on.

Proof is everything (unless you're in NSB).
And none of those ''insiders'' are those doing the testing.
(If there is no testing, there is no failing)

He's bullshltting and doesn't have proof.
How would he know they were dirty ?
I don't recall any of his fights being called off or him accepting his opponents purse penalty.

People within the industry are scared of getting blacklisted I presume, they speak out on it but don’t rock the boat, or reveal who’s doing it and facilitating it. Earning money is at stake and ultimately money is king over the moral compass.

Oh yes. That's very much the problem. Thanks

Algieri says he's beaten dirty fighters but doesn't name them.

Most of the trainer's and fighters know what's up but none of them speak out.

u think kambo and brook are juicers?

Kambo is wasting his money, if he's using peds. If he's using peds, those are the worst peds ever. Haney left him in the dust.

Ever failed a test ?

First cheat = 3 year suspension.
Second cheat = lifetime suspension.

Regrettably it will never be that simple. As things stand, who is suspending Benn? Not BBBofC as they don't follow VADA.

Just highlights how fcuked boxing is. The orgs don't care unless a guy is fighting for them. The sanctioning bodies don't care unless they're sanctioning the fight. And apparently, in this case, the opponent doesn't even care.

So if no-one cares, why should we expect fighters to be clean?
