Comments Thread For: British Board Confirm Conor Benn is Being Investigated Over Failed Test

[Smash]

The quote from the BBBofC doesn't say that. It says UKAD have commenced an investigation and the Board are in communication with them.

If UKAD were to ban Benn then of course the Board would act.

But how can they? He didn't fail their testing?

whyte failed their testing & they didnt ban him for 1 day

Shranaploya :'Nothing to see here, the boy took medication to increase his partners chance of getting pregnant. It really is none of our business. Let's hope we will see Conor Benn back in the ring in the new year.'

Yeah, I totally agree. What could be more normal than to take medication to increase your partner's chance of getting pregnant, without any reason to doubt you could normally. Which of us hasn't done the same? (I haven't, don't know if anyone else has, doubt it but I'm offering it out there....)

What an unfortunate coincidence that taking that medication coincided with Conor being in a fight where he needed to put muscle mass on to fight a naturally bigger man. Which of us would think, could think, that a nasty evil-minded observer might draw conclusions from that? After all, Conor couldn't hang around could he? At age 26 he was mere moments away from becoming infertile.

Why on earth would anyone think this was to do with cycling steroids to put on mass while remaining athletic, being strong, cheating & potentially killing, blinding or permanently disabling his opponent?

Let's hope we will never see Conor Benn back in the ring in our lifetimes. He is a lying, cheating, tripe hound who was quite prepared to endanger Chris Eubank Jnr's life to further his career. IMO he should be banned for life.

Oh, & , by the way, he was no damn good before the PEDs. If he was he would've fought Avaneseyan or my man Essumann, or even McIntyre.

Winning is important but maybe Benn was scared euban k could hurt him, that's why he resorted to peds.

Winning shouldn't be at all costs, Benn maybe thought he couldn't beat euban k without help! But losing isn't end of world, when your young.
I feel sorry for what Benn has lost, sabotaged career

he hasnt even been banned yet & even if he is it will be business as normal after he serves the ban

I can't remember seeing a first-time offender being banned for years. Jarrell Miller got 2 years after his 2nd or 3rd offense I think?

Or....maybe him and his girl were just trying to make a super baby. C'mon give the guy a break dammit!......PPV IS DEAD!!!

benn is in a great position for a likely drug cheat, he wasnt caught by ukad who when they tried to ban fury they almost ended up bankrupt & asked the government to help them out with cash, what a farce of a system it seems, nobody wants to even be in a position to deal with drug cheats, not even those whose job it is to do just that, fighters who pop dirty cant be in a position for themselves or people like hearn to bully others into dropping the charges with threats of legal action and whatever other methods they use, u are responsible for whats in your body, no excuse, u pop u get banned, various bans for different substances and amounts clearly published so no wriggle room with trance amounts excuses, isolated contamination or whatever, u have X amount of substance A in you, u get banned for this time etc, all black and white no courts or threats like that, otherwise it seems to be a total con job farce of a system designed to get cheaters off totally or as light as possible

It was their own fault in the case of Fury they waited what 16 months to bring their "charges" against him for the Hammer fight, they clearly had no reason to wait until after he'd won the eliminator then fought for the championship against Wlad only to come for him 7 months after he won the belts.

Which just happens to coincide with Furys hómophobic, anti semitic and comments regarding páedophiles and god, weird coincidence if I do say so myself (comments made May they come after him in June).

The issue with the UKAD is their lack of consistency, they banned Whyte for 2 years DMAA in jack3d (pre-workout) after it'd been on the list for just a couple of week but then don't ban him years later for dianabol and sweep it under the rug...

P.S. Then again he was with Frank/Kelly Maloney when he "popped" for DMAA and with Eddie when he popped for Dianabol maybe that's the deciding factor in what does and doesn't get swept under the proverbial.
