Conor Benn focuses on ‘deleting his name’ after Eubank postponement



Conor Benn should have been ready for the fight of his life. Instead, he just released a statement assuring fans that he’s not taking performance-enhancing drugs.

It all came crashing down this week for ‘Terminator’ and those involved in what is billed as one of Britain’s biggest sporting events of the year. Despite some hiccups during construction, things went on until Daily Mail drops a bomb – Benn was recently found to have traces of a banned substance in his test sample, as confirmed by the Voluntary Anti-Doping Agency.

Although Benn, his rival Chris Eubank Jr, and their promoters all expressed a desire for the event to continue, the British Board of Supervisors withdrawing their support turned out to be a move. well worth going back. After the last effort from the organizers to get the fight going as planned, it has been officially postponed No date or time frame provided for rescheduling.

Saturday’s bout came as no surprise – many in the boxing world had expected to hear the news sooner – however it left more questions than answers, with a host of boxers The lower ranks now want to be rescheduled, a very event that puts the country in a state of equilibrium, and Benn’s situation with VADA.

Not long after the announcement, he took to Instagram to address the situation.

“I’m really gutted that we weren’t able to get this game going on Saturday and I apologize to everyone who has been affected by the postponement.

I’m still completely shocked and surprised by this and have had a rough couple of days. My team and I will be looking at further options including rescheduling the match, but my immediate focus is on clearing my name because I’m a clean athlete! “

This certainly won’t be the last time we’re here from the young welterweight who has been on the escalator to world title and superstardom. Whether this is a retrograde or a collapse of the earth remains to be seen as more information comes to light.
