No. If he had a silent ban then he wouldn’t have been able to fight twice in the US
Different licence I believe?

Yeah but he wouldn’t have been given a license in the US if he was serving a ban.

It’s amazing how many people think he’s served a silent ban. What evidence is there that he did? Or that silent bans are an actual thing?

I think people just have trust issues.

I mean the whole things been a farce. Where’s the evidence of anything if that’s the case.

No one is believing 100% of what is out there online anymore.

Yet they seem to believe there was a silent ban despite Benn fighting twice in the last 15 months.

Wether there was or was not a silent ban , does'nt matter to me , the whole stink around Benn i has a fan , i feel like he's pissed on my back and told me its raining , when he's been told got you doing it on video , clear has day mate ,, his answer is , not me , thats someone looks like me , and whats more they done it to make me look bad .

And too be honest all along to me anyway a simple , yes i got caught , but everyone else is doing it , thats whay i did it to remain competetive , well that would be understandable and to an extent even make me forgive for the way he has treated the people he beat his whole attitude to winning .

But naaw , the little toe rag still claims he's innocent , blames the whole world which makes his dancing with his father over a floored opponent ALL THE WORSE

Couple of things now i'd be sure off ,

One .....he no longer calls out Boots Ennis, Boots is with Hearn so it could be done

Two ,,,,, he does'nt sue for loss of income , the truth and the documentation could all be made public

Naaw , he'll come out and say , no hard feelings i just want to go ahead and get my job done now

Hope i see him soon against Eubank AT a catchweight , and testing done , or hope i see him with Boots either way he gets an hiding , Hearn recoups his money and the egg man can fook off back to Australia ,

He could never say that. It would be too controversial and he’d get ostracised from boxing

People have failed before, but this seems to have really got under people's skin. Just an observation.

Not many have admitted their guilt. James Toney failed twice and is seemingly adored. Fury sold out Wembley after sitting out his ban.

His attitude towards people has been horrendous. He's been acting like an entitled spoilt brat, insulting everyone who even mentions the tests, while also constantly talking about it yet offering no explanation. It's his attitude. I also don't think he was liked well enough before it happened either.

It seems obvious to me. Cordina, Cash and Benn suddenly start punching like Ernie Shavers.

The spotlight goes on that gym because of Benn and they all become feather fisted and start getting beat.

i mean it should be pretty obvious why benn got so much heat

not many boxers go on multiple national mainstream media campains talking absolute sh!t and pissin all over anyone who questions them like he has. most will try to lay low and disappear for a bit, even big mouths like whyte. not many run through multiple pr and legal teams in the process or promise to release 700 page dossiers that will force apologies. benn himself said he's handled it wrong

true though, a lotta people are hypocrits and will have no problem with one drug cheat, yet rag on others for cheating. fury has plenty of fans like this. tbf to him, he came back with a great run, benn hasnt done anything close to that. erik morales, rjj, ali, holyfield, mosley, canelo, and other greats also either tested positive, admitted to ped use, or strongly linked to it.

He’s already said he’s not suing. Take that how you like, but if I’d wrongly lost 2 years of my career I’d want compensating. I’d also be allowing the full details to be released to back that up.
Not Suing and not allowing the FULL judgement to be read leaves a lot of questions

I really really really hate the word play Connor and his team get into word twisting statements. Makes me think he is guilty because it in itself is completly dishonest.



Ukads statement… said:

“UKAD notes that professional boxer Mr Conor Benn has made public comments today regarding the outcome of proceedings before the independent National Anti-Doping Panel. UKAD can confirm that it received the decision of the independent National Anti-Doping Panel this afternoon. The Panel concluded that it was ‘not comfortably satisfied’ that UKAD had proved that Mr Benn had committed an Anti-Doping Rule Violation for the Use of clomifene. The Provisional Suspension previously in place has been lifted and the charge against him has been consequently dismissed.

“UKAD will now carefully review the Panel’s decision in accordance with its appeal“




That is not clearing someone of any wrongdoing, that’s saying there is insufficient evidence to keep him banned… which itself is code for “I’m scared of getting sued”

It’s a bit like the WBC “clearing him” - when they had no power to do so

This might be nothing or something, but Robert Smith used the word 'suspension', not the word 'ban'. I mean, they are two different things after all.

Eubank and Lara are being strongly linked to box each other.

Decent fight and winnable for Eubank. May struggle as a stand-alone PPV headliner in the U.K. though.
