Conor Benn is a ******* bum and Eddie Hearn is dirty for trying to still put this fight on after Benn clearly tested positive for PEDs
10.08.2022 | 6:34 PM ET
There is no way Benn and his team can make the excuse that ''Benn has always been a clean athlete'' tested positive for Clomiphene which is an estrogen blocker. There is no way to defend himself by saying that he ate contaminated meat, cream to treat skin infections or that it was due to medical fertility treatment. This is because Clomiphene is only used as a female fertility treatment and in men its effect is to be a testosterone booster. There is no way for Eddie Hearn to defend him: Benn failed a VADA doping test and tested positive for a specific substance that in men can only be used for cheating in sport (as it would be to test positive for EPO).

Eddie Hearn tried to do the same thing Top Rank did to Oscar Valdez when he failed a VADA test just the week before his fight with Robson Conceicao.
The difference is that when Benn tested positive for a testosterone booster unlike Valdez who tested positive for a stimulant used to cut weight (which is also illegal) there was no way that a serious boxing organization would sanction the fight or allow that Benn will fight despite such a serious infraction.
