The independent National Anti-Doping Panel (NADP)

"The service is operated by Sport Resolutions in accordance with its own procedural rules and is entirely independent of UK Anti-Doping, who are responsible for investigating, charging and prosecuting cases before the NADP."

ukad can say nothing to do with us, move on please

i dont know they might as well make peds legal and say just get on with it lads

[Goatintheboat]

Where's the official statement?

[Smash]

the wbc said yes plausible it could have been eggs, benn throws a hissy fit with the internet laughing at him, no not eggs u dummies it was contamination, gets his top medical guys together to prove it & is now cleared possibly, to clear or convict is it beyond reasonable doubt or lower, balance of probability, how can they rule on intent if they are not there when the actual contamination happens, if no intent then not guilty but u have crap in your body helping u get better

[GlassJoey]

Clearly had eggstenuating circumstances

[Smash]

if hes claiming contamination is he saying he contaminated himself by accident or vada was the source of his two failed tests when in fact he tested clean all the time and its actually all the testers fault

[57Blues]

waiting to hear the BS explanation from ukad, should be a good laugh, we couldnt prove it to 100% certainty that u were cheating, we just got to 99%, off u go benn, sorry

the only way to stop these "bums" is to not pay attention to them inside the ring or outside the ring. i know of no other way. When fight fans decide to boycott a boxing event and do it repeatedly then they will listen. its about money its about money its about money...............laugh all you want i am grinning too bc it is a joke of a idea to believe that that would ever happen in the fight game with fight fans at this point in the game.

The Eggsistencial dilemma is that now that he is "clear" and can fight again, shreds of the stigma will remain and there will always be someone to egg him on over it.

to be fair to benn he never cracked

thats one hard boiled noggin on him

its over but it wasnt over easy

He never said he was cleared. He said the process is over and he remains free to fight.

Those are very carefully chosen words... that apparently a journalist couldn't appreciate.

Who knows what the real truth is. I suspect his team screwed up and some doping was uncovered by a couple of unannounced tests or an improvement in testing. He was fine on the UKAD testing... how on earth can they ban him and maintain any kind of credibility in their own testing?

But I honestly believe that everyone is doping to some extent. All the testing does is keep doping at low levels.

We'll see what UKAD say. But who cares? Not even the team of the guy who was about to fight him was bothered about the level of drugs he was on.

Eddie Hearn said on his youtube channel that he's been cleared by UKAD.

Unsure if true but that's what he said.
