    With Vada? What if someone fails a test? I don't think this fight ever happens.

      If low-IQ Benn and money-hungry Hearn had any brain cells they would've made tune up first and proceed with Barrios.
      Was hoping that Keith Connolly would bring some sanity to Benn's team.
      Leave phony Eubank to himself.

        I think because of Lara's style (despite being a bit washed) it could be a bad fight for Eubank. Benn is clearly the low risk, high reward option.

          The problem is, Benn isn't very good – so who knows if he'd perform well against Barrios, let alone a tune-up PED free.

          Better to cash out against Eubank and then say "oh well, he's a super middleweight really, let's challenge for a title at welterweight instead"

            It's hard to expect you to understand or respect anything when you don't even respect legal proceedings and their results.

              They just need to hurry up and announce their next fights. If not against each other then Barrios and Lara will be good too. Maybe a double header at the 02.

                Articles like this remind me why I actually feel a bit sad for LowTide Eddie sometimes. He knows exactly what he's got (or, moe precisely, what he hasn't got) with Nepo Benn. But it's his job to go out every day and sell defective products. Yeesh.

                  Results of legal proceedings are often not congruent with reality.

                    Is Conor Benn’s ego on PEDs too?
