Clarifying Conor Benn’s Relationship With Controversial Doctor Testosterone
Conor Benn’s team today tried to clarify his relationship with controversial doctor Umar Sajjad, saying the pair first met in August – despite a social media post from July 8 from Sajjad calls Benn one of his clients.
A statement for Sportsmail from Benn’s manager, Charlie Sims, said Benn first met Sajjad in August and thus between two VADA tests positive for the banned substance Clomid. Sims also claimed Sajjad was only brought in to help with the weighting process.
‘We are aware of this post and to provide clarity the doctor has contacted the trainer, who said they would like him to be involved with the team regarding the handling of weight checks for next match (at that time scheduled for September and later revised to October).
Conor met him for the first time as said in August”.
Dr Sajjad has come under close scrutiny after footage emerged of him giving an in-depth description of how a boxer could hypothetically take performance-enhancing drugs while avoiding detection from the authorities. anti-doping.
Benn promoter Eddie Hearn stated in an interview earlier this month that ‘The Terminator’ has only met Sajjad once and the two do not have a close working relationship.
Britain’s Boxing Regulatory Board released a statement last week detailing how Benn made the decision to give up his license ahead of a scheduled hearing.. This has received criticism from several quarters, with many believing this was done with a view to avoiding hearings about failed tests.
Benn maintains his innocence and stance that he has always been a clean athlete.
