Chris Eubank Jr. vs. Conor Benn | PPV - 26 April 2025

[Counter-puncher]

What, has Camp Eddie not fronted up to the media since the Viley Mail made the allegation of not one but two failed tests?

i thought someone linked a video somewhere earlier on thread?

[Frostieballs]

Benn deserves he book chucked at him if this is true but who's covered this up? Maybe Algieri and Van Heerden can sue and finish off the wretched BBBC

someone mentioned Algieri the other say, have i remembered it wrong or had he never been stopped before Benn? i mean Pac bounced him off the canvas like a basketball but i didn't think he stopped him? maybe Spence did? fvck, did he even fight spence (or was that Van Heerden? he fought and stopped a south african dude, i do remember that much)? wtf C-P.

If only there was a site where you could look this stuff up

He has done media - just with the guys he knows won’t give him a hard time. It’s probably a difficult position to be in because he probably won’t be able to go into the finer points on things legally.

Kalle, the co-promoter of the show, hasn’t done much media since. Or Benn clearly.

[Frostieballs]

Maybe if Benn requested the B sample immediately then he wouldn't be in limbo now but he deliberately stalled so he wouldn't fail again before the Eubank fight and now he has to take whatever flak comes his way, aw diddums

I dont really understand all this talk about B samples.

He needs an excuse for why this drug was in his system, not confirmation that it was.

Im going for mrs is on it and the 'tiny, trace amounts' come from *contact* with her...

It is done to provide a second test of the same material, in case the first sample was somehow contaminated by accident.

99.9% of the time, they test the same way.

Yeah I do like to try and get by on my memory, you know, trawl through the old cobwebs

as you can see it's going brilliantly

[margaret thatcher]

did benn really ask for an apology? what a f@cking wanker

Yup just read that on BBC. Asking for apologies from all those who criticised him !!!

To do this whilst its all up in the air shows some of his personality traits

It's the same piss in two different pots, won't be any different

Just what you would expect from a narcissistic spoiled brat.
Gave it away when he was jumping around celebrating while Chris Algieri still hadn't come around on the canvas. Total d*ck move.

I agree 100% with you but I fear it’s just the kind of tw@tish comment you’d get from somebody who’s confident of escaping justice

'He's turned the boxing world upside down': Kell Brook hits out at 'DISGRACEFUL' Conor Benn after his fight with Chris Eubank Jr was cancelled following a failed drugs test - as he claims the fighter must 'explain how that's ended up in his system'



Brook told iFL TV: 'Disgraceful. He's turned the boxing world upside down. It brings a negative light on boxing.

'To see that happen with Conor Benn… He needs to explain how that's ended up in his system, bottom line. We're waiting for this statement.'

Brook added: 'It's a fight [that] does excite me, I won't lie. If it makes business sense then who knows? But I'm not saying to you now 'Eubank, be ready I'm coming for you' – I'm not saying that, I'm saying who knows?

'If I'm starting to train again and I get that excitement where I want to come back then them fights are there.

'I left the sport on top, I left the sport the main man in the boxing world. [One of the best] we've got in Britain, so I demand what I deserve.'

[Syntax Error]

Senior is extremely wound up about this.

I will cut him some slack owing to him still probably grieving the loss of one of his sons, plus it seems as if he has never fully come to terms about what happened to Michael Watson.

This was always a circus of a fight, albeit with a bit of intruige, but if Benn does clear his name and they reschedule it, it needs to be at 160 with no gimmicks.

I know this sort of thing isn't new, but Benn isn't a big enough name to be pulling stunts like this.

If he thinks he can beat Eubank Jr, he should move up to 160 and fight him there and be done with it.

Powerful stuff

Powerful stuff

Very powerful stuff but understandable he just lost a son . Knew there was a possibility of another getting hurt by a juiced up coward who would only take it because weight and dehydration clauses and juiced on top.. Then thd promoters wanted him there purely and simple has a marketing gimmic with Benn snr fook i.d be pissed if i was him

[Steveh583]

I love how gareth puts it on Kugan in the first 30 seconds of this interview (yes lads, I'm his no.1 fan boi ) . We'd all like to have said it tho.

[Twinkle Toes]

The first 30 seconds is the only part worth listening too. The rest is Gareth saying a lot without saying a lot. As usual.

Love how Gareth went all gangster at the start of that video!

He tried to be gangster at the end of the video blowing rings with his e-cigs. Ended up in a coughing fit.

Yeah, fair play for saying what he did. We couldn't see Kugan's reaction but by hearing his response, he sounded a little rattled.

More insight about why the fight got binned.
