Tyson Fury asked about Conor Benn
“It’s none of my business. I don’t get involved. You’re speaking to Tyson Fury, “The Gypsy King.”
“I’m not a sheep. I am my own man. I don’t follow the cliché of “Let’s talk about someone because it’s in fashion,” said Fury.
He continued: “I don’t give a toss what they do. It’s none of my business. I keep this nose in what concerns me.
“I don’t get involved in other people’s business. Period.”
But the more he spoke, Fury would eventually say something about the failures when adding a joke for good measure.
“It’s none of my concern what Conor Benn does. He’s about ten stone. He’s not in my division.
Conor Benn ‘trying for twins’
“I don’t focus on what they do in their lives. I’ve no interest in what fertility drug they take. I don’t care.
“Maybe he’s trying for twins and taking IVF? – I don’t know, and I don’t really care.”
Benn is facing a tough battle to clear his name after stating contamination was the cause for two failed tests weeks apart.
The British Boxing Board of Control is investigating the adverse finding flagged through the VADA program.
The banned substance clomifene is a performance enhancing drug known to raise testosterone levels. It caused the end of his bout with Chris Eubank Jr at the O2 Arena in London last October.
Releasing a statement aimed at the BBBofC due to its allegations of misconduct, the British boxer protested his innocence through his team: “He strongly refutes the allegation of misconduct [which for the avoidance of doubt is *not* in relation to the VADA issue].
“He firmly believes that an independent tribunal will reach a wholly different conclusion.”
