Benn and tests
Benn and tests
I watch you tube a lot , primaraly because its suits my attention span 10-15 min then a new story , I have however come to the conclusion thaty most of what you see on there is bollocks , there obviously is some monetary reward for sprouting bollocks and rubbish and getting idiots like me to watch it , how i'm not sure but it must be there .
Anyhow I've watched a couple recently stating Benn is / has refused to be drug tested for this up coming Garcia fight , is it true , not seen anything on here about it , or is it just bullshit and bollocks like most of u tube ,, I'm thinking its got to be rubbish how can a fighter tell the governing body to do one ,

Re: Benn and tests
The fact it's a title fight means there are sanctioning bodies rules.
The WBC’s Clean Boxing Program, overseen by the Voluntary Anti-Doping Association (VADA), requires all WBC World Champions and top-15 ranked fighters in each weight class to enroll in year-round random testing.

Re: Benn and tests
It was the WBC who came up with the eggs excuse for Benn after all, but you'd like to think the Nevada commision might keep an eye on things.SeanBrennan wrote: ↑21 Aug 2026, 15:36I suspect the WBC decide how random, or not, that testing isKiwiRider wrote: ↑21 Aug 2026, 15:12 The fact it's a title fight means there are sanctioning bodies rules.

Re: Benn and tests
Think Benn sadly to say has risen above and beyond the rules , Still hoping Garcia flattens him , Hope after, Garcia and his dad , dance above his flattened out body ,

Re: Benn and tests
Given that both boxers have failed tests I wouldn’t be at all surprised if they had a private meeting with their teams and agreed to no testing.
Re: Benn and tests
They are both drug cheats.
People need to remember that.

Re: Benn and tests
No PEDs are going to help Benn no matter what he takes
Re: Benn and tests
Honestly Sean, I think the Benn that beat Eubank also beats the Garcia that lost to Romero. Which was only two fights ago.
And wouldn't be a massive underdog against the Garcia that beat Barrios.
I have it 70/30 Garcia
Re: Benn and tests
the first proper left hook Garcia lands ends this as a competitive match, whether or not Benn stays upright

Both guys will be juiced to the gills, as it is for most pro boxing fights.

What was the first thing Eubank Sr. said to the interviewer after his fight vs Watson...
"I want him tested"
Re: Benn and tests
How exactly would Benn have achieved a status where the rules don't apply to him? Usually that's reserved for Superstars that have proven a lot and been a big money draw for a noteworthy length of time.

Re: Benn and tests
I think Eubank snr's post fight comment after a very tough fight with Michael Watson was an attempt at a back-handed compliment.

Re: Benn and tests
He's not necessarily a bad person, but why is he more famous than other fighters? That's what I don't get.
He's not an especially interesting personality. He's not a particularly exciting or entertaining boxer.
His Dad was good, but he wasn't THAT good. He's treated as if he's Boxing Royalty based off nothing in particular. It's odd to me.
I guess it's like Ryan Garcia and he just talks a lot of shit and makes people mad at him and that works?
