    The clowns at the BBBoC should also stop sanctioning fights were fighters need TUEs to fight.

    Mr. TUE Joshua would never fight in the UK again

          Matchroom was hoping that UKAD protocols would overrule VADA positive results. Like how Toprank managed to champion WADA over VADA standards in Oscar Valdez vs. Robson Conceicao. The fact that I'm reading that VADA is going to weigh as much as UKAD going forward is progress, for the corrupt British anti-doping bureaucratic system.

          Imagine Tyson Fury being treated the same as Connor Benn? Fury would have never got to rob Christian Hammer or face Wladimir Klitschko, nor make the subsequent million dollar purses that the bum unjustly got paid.
          Imagine if the board actually brought it to his/their attention at the time it happened.

          Just imagine if he didn't pass multiple piss tests just days after the fight and before... then maybe they could've actually done something to him.

          Imagine if you didn't hate the guy you little fággot, or European fighters in general.

            What we need to know is why Benn is innocent (if he is). Not why he can avoid a ban, nobody wants that crap. Help him prove himself legitimately or dump him.

              Matchroom wants the same loophole they used when Dillian Whyte popped against Oscar Rivas. He failed a VADA test, but passed the UKAD test, and the BBBoC didn't have the resources to fight Matchroom in court when they asserted that the UKAD test was the one that mattered.
              This.

              Peddie Earn thought he had set a precedent and tried to push it through like the Whyte fight, only this time it came back to bite him on his arse,

                  Matchroom basically admitting they've been doing this with their marquee fighters.

                  Explains how Terri Harper got that all that junk in the trunk in her last fight camp

                    It's OK fella, Conor Benn will threaten to sue UKAD, have his lawyers lift the suspension and negotiate a 'backdated' two year ban. With luck, Benn will go on to complete for a world title like Hughie Fury and write a book about how his girlfriend tried to screw him over by sneaking vag pills in his protein shakes -- just like that swindler Martin Carefoot injected his Pigs with steroids.

                      When BJ Saunders and Whyte got away with it, even journalists and fans openly talking about how corrupt and scummy the whole thing was didn't change anything. Seems likely nothing will change here. Matchroom drug cheats exploit loopholes to avoid punishment and the loopholes are never closed. Funny for this Matchroom exec to act like he has a problem with that set-up.
                      Saunders was still a Frank Warren fighter when he failed his test. That fight with Andrade was going to be on Hearn show but he was actually still Frank Warren fighter and fought his next fight on Warren’s card too
