I'm amazed he didn't know, why wouldn't he tell his trainer? It must've be fairly clear the news was going to break as Hearn and Whyte were overheard talking about it at the pre-fight press conference.

‘E knows naffin mate - Leave it, yeah ?

So Whyte was not even allowed to talk to his trainer about it?
If that was the case, how did Hearn find out?
Did Dillian tell him?
If so is that not a breach of confidentiality?

Every day seems to bring more questions than answers.

Hearn would be notified as Promotor/Manager of the show in question.

Does nothing to add to my feelings that Whyte has knowingly taken this substance, but it just gets murkier and more odd by the day.

Not telling your trainer is weird af as the mental strain and lack of sleep etc could have a huge bearing on his performance, capability to perform and aspects that a trainer needs to know. And for TIbbs to find out while on holiday the same way we did, suggests a lack of trust or a lack of real bond as there can no effing possible legal reason to not tell Tibbs.

Not sure I believe this.

The whole thing is weird. The lack of clarity on everything is what has created all the speculation.

If it was an open process, I'm sure it wouldn't have become anywhere near the big deal it has.

“Listen mate, I ain’t no facking grass...I didn’t know nothin about it”

Would he?

When asked about a potential failed test for Rivas he said that he wouldn't know if he had as it would be confidential between the fighter, UKAD and the board.

If that is the case, then Dillian must have told Hearn, I find it hard to believe that he would tell his promoter but not his trainer.

The promoter is paying his wages.

But I agree it's a bit of a stretch believing his trainer didn't know anything.

Dillan , aint no cheat , he's a proper man , a real geezer , he's a proper man and honest , don't tell me nuthin though , cos i'm only his trainer , , thats the sort of geezer he is , did'nt even want to worry his trainer ,on little things like that , He worried about his trainer so much he run off and told Eddie the man with the money , and his lawyers , before worrying his trainer , cos he's a proper geezer , ..

Dom Ingle has no idea who uses in his gym either . . and listening to Hearn on the subject his biggest defence is they don't test much in America ,

To be fair, a well connected guy like Hearn would be of far more use than Tibbs in this type of situation.

Still doesn't sit right, I prefer to think Tibbs knows everything and is playing dumb to avoid putting his foot in it.

To me it says one of two things , Whyte never did tell him anything , and the only reason not too is Tibbs is a straight guy who would'nt of agreeed with it ,, or Tibbs can look into a camera and quite convicingly LIE through his teeth , Don't know the guy so i would like to think he's a straight guy ,, although he probably could'nt give a shite what i think

Tibbs knew naffink? You avin a Turkish guv?

Leave it right out you clown, how can Tibbs be in the Noah's Ark abart this polava? ees only the geezers nah fackin brainer innit.

Oi ain't avin this, I aint being mugged off. Some cahnts in line for a dry slap and I'll be avin it right off with whoever wants it innit

Tibbs has no credibility because?

Not as good looking as he was. Tibbs was a decent looking bloke when he was boxing.

He still a total stud, got that added mature handsomeness

Some nifty editing for full effect, but still funny :
