Comments Thread For: Conor Benn Admits To Testing Positive For Banned Substance in "Two" VADA Tests

[PredatorStyle]

Just stop all testing its ******.


what is the point of testing if they wont inform the public of failed tests and they dont have any impact


and for the tests that do get revealed to the public they often will allow the fight to continue anyways


its ****** and pointless, everyone is on peds


I mean look at this fight, BOTH guys were on peds before the fight, so that makes them even so then just let them fight

Eubank was on peds?

[PredatorStyle]

What I don't understand - and seems su****ious - is there are there no experts giving interviews about PEDs. You have people with some experience or association with them but no experts. There must be experts out there. How can there be so much knowledge about how to cycle PEDs and no actual experts with a background in chemistry?

It just shows how deep the corruption is. A real expert could come out and explain the likely scenarios but no one is because they want everything to be hazy so it can be swept under the rug. For instance, there must be people who work, or formally worked in laboratories that test these things, etc. Those types of people must have been payed or warned to keep their mouths shut.

Someone should at least explain what advantage you get from different types... Are we talking weight gain/loss or becoming a super man who hits 15% harder or his stamina lasts 25% longer, etc?

This is sickening greed considering the past injuries Benn Snr and Eubank Snr inflicted on opponents. No respect of the danger of boxing by Benn and Hearn, how much money does that prick need. Should be ashamed of themselves trying to fight a weak Eubank dirty.

It looks like Benn's claiming contamination. How likely is that with this type of drug and how likely is it to happen twice within a few months?

The hypocrisy is real, man.

2 things on Armstrong, however:

(1) he reckons Tour De France is impossible w/out ‘assistance’, and tbh, that’s probably true of stage 1, let alone the rest, and certainly actually winning the damn thing.

(2) At least he’s not getting assistance to beat someone’s face in.


Now whether that last point makes him less of a scumbag than doping boxers is debatable. Obv, we’ve heard about how he went out and destroyed ppl for whistleblowing, which is ****ing low.

You are correct about the doping. It was how he handled the whole thing that defines him.

I know a nurse that was on the medical team that was treating him for cancer (she’s also an instructor at CUNY college). She swore that he was the biggest douchebag ever. Extremely rude to medical staff and threatened almost everyone that even looked at him.

Also, conservative Americans love him regardless but you should hear them when they talk about Marion Jones.

[Mr Giggles]

And Eddie Hearn knew about BOTH of them!!

[P to the J]

There is proof of non drug cheaters perma hurting/killing a mug.
The best a drug cheater can do maybe win a UD.

To add, when people say the user is putting their health at risk....I have to lol.
IT'S BOXING

Besides, that has yet to be seen.

Overall, I get what you’re saying; there’s a lot of sensationalism attached to such predictions, admittedly.

But how do you figure this? (Highlighted comments)

Somehow, this doesn’t surprise me.

Maybe I’m engaging in stereotyping, here, but it really felt like American pop culture and public life from the 80’s to 2000’s portrayed winning at all costs as the biggest virtue of all. But then I am in the UK.

It’s funny, when I read the title to this thread I thought Ben was admitting guilt, then I read the article and he is blaming it on contamination. He wants us to believe that a woman fertility drug that can raise raise testosterone levels in men was found in something he ingested?? Furthermore he is insisting small traces. I don’t recall reading that. I recall reading that he failed 2 test and Hearn knew about it.

Yes, it' all sounds like smoke and mirrors stuff doesn't't it?!

Hearn is in full damage limitation mode for himself/MR and I get the feeling that if it means throwing Benn under the bus that'll be next.
