“GIVE US THE REASONS, IT’S DISAPPOINTING” GARETH A DAVIES PLEAS TO CONOR BENN TO EXPLAIN HIMSELF

[@iiiiiiiiijj]

So Connor Benn had 4 samples tested. An A&B sample in July and a A&B sample in September by vada by coincidentally by the same substance . And he was going to fight regardless . . Imagine if he had of fought and knocked a weight drained eubank out . Scary to think . . And if Connor clears himself now that discredits vada and they will be liable for loss of earnings for both fighters ect . . .

[@richardovenden6366]

he would have to be present for the B samples to be opened, so would need visual proof thats the tamper proof seals had been broken before hand, so if they not been broken hes not gonna have a leg to stand on if the B sample came out positive as well, imo just all smoke and mirrors from the benn team. this 270 page dossier they sent to the WBC is all nonsense as they cant ban em anyway just remove em from their rankings. the BBBoC have not receive this dossier so as it stands he not gonna get is license back

[@Guitar387]

The drug was in his system and showed in the Urine test. It’s impossible to hold Vada responsible . Their job is to test and deliver the results. Ben will probably come up for a reason that it got in to his system by accident , that will most likely be his defence.

[@richardovenden6366]

@@Guitar387 exactly his only case is like i said that he was present for the opening of the B samples and the seals had been tampered with, other than that its a case of how did they get into his system, as suggested he was trying to go down the oral sex route which aint gonna wash

[@iiiiiiiiijj]

Thanks for your interpretation of the situation it makes sense that way . Dominic ingle was talking that Connor Benn was saying the testing was at fault and I think Gareth Davies made the situation even more confusing . So basically no one knows till the report is finished and then do we ?

[@cloudy7292]

To be fair, it's difficult to explain you're a cheat.

[@ArnoldJudasRimmer..]

Spot on! This is a nonsense. Has been rolling on for months, with no proof from him forthcoming. And that is because he failed 2 different tests, at 2 different times. Conclusive....

[@cloudy7292]

@@ArnoldJudasRimmer.. He's refusing to comply with the British boxing board investigation too. Doesn't look good.

[@ArnoldJudasRimmer..]

@@cloudy7292 I remember watching his first few sky shows and thinking similar things to when I watched Campbell Hatton.... The Cedrick Peynaud fight exposed Benn as a hype job. He had been juicing to the hilt ever since that fight. Knocking out guy after guy afterwards in devastating fasion always seemed funny to me....

[@cloudy7292]

@@ArnoldJudasRimmer.. Yeah that is suspicious. As is his rapid change of body shape although maybe not impossible at his age. There's some doubt with many things like that but doubt isn't enough for me. Two separate positive tests in a short time frame and refusing to comply further is more than enough though. Don't give a shit what's in his 270 page dossier either. He needs to comply with the investigation and he's ran from it.

[@judshuttie70]

He failed vada test not ukad looking like evidence going to prove him innocent if he's innocent will you all apologize or just say it's bullshit because your haters? If he's going guilty I'll admit he needs banning for life and is a cheat I thought he was guilty too by way but it's starting to look like this kid did nothing wrong just hope everyone throwing him under the bus treat himfair and admit they were wrong like they did for many other fighters.

[@croydonsteve5433]

Benn should not be able to step foot in a ring again until the truth comes out if he’s guilty ban him if he’s innocent then a lot of us owe him an apology.. I didn’t like the way Benn was mocking Eubanks loss specially while there is a cloud hanging over him.. Unless he clears he’s name Benns irrelevant 🥊🥊

[@chrishutch2387]

That’s on the BBOBC, and they are saying he can fight… whole situation is a mess.

[@edarowan7388]

Own it Conner that wont happen your a cheat mate 🥊🙄

[@jeremycarson8966]

Unprofessional for the interviewer to not be crystal clear about testing process

[@jameso7049]

Gareth forgets the board we’re happy to acknowledge VADA during lockdown as UKAD didn’t / wouldn’t test so the board have let Benn slip the net here and it’s wrong

[@user-xz3iv6tw2i]

He doesnt need to give a reason. He has said hes innocent that shoukd be good enough.

[@arranwalker4292]

🤣

[@richnewton7906]

What planet are you on?. Crack is a hell of a drug!

[@mikey5812]

I was a huge conor fan. My 12 year old son and I were following his rise. I was telling him of his great dad and the great old fights. Then this happened. And now, all the evasiveness and excuses, etc. If conor is guilty, own it, apologise, and take a ban and come back. People would respect that. We all make mistakes. If not, openly explain the truth and stop hiding. Luckily, we've people like liam smith in the sport.

[@galboy5308]

Crap guilty as sin benn should be banned and taken out ratings was a fan , no more trying to buy his way out of it 🤡👎

[@1971_2]

Not seen Bono for ages

[@workingclassman9727]

why is this fella interviewing. obvs knows nowt about the subject

[@virgin26]

Yeah he was making the man Vex

[@damienmooney3342]

Benn timed his cycle wrong. The argument that he's innocent because 'why else would he sign up for VADA' is bullshit. VADA only start testing 8 weeks out

[@msquared6695]

Can’t see it being a “Hagler v Hearn” after seeing Yarde get dropped by a jab when he’s spent

[@chrishutch2387]

Neither of these 2 have no idea what’s going on, more sense outta the chuckle brothers.. and still make more sense that Haye and Kugan.

[@BoxingKingMedia]

😂

[@Dollarg11111]

If this wasn’t a Hearn fighter. He would be banned for life already.

[@SirJimDyche]

It’s boring , exactly what Hearn wanted . Just smoke and mirrors and balls deep in litigation. Disappointing is an understatement

[@davetherave1729]

I'm getting quite sick of this investigation. It's taking much longer than expected. Make a decision, give benn a 1 year ban or let him fight again.

[@olivershaw1450]

No chance of having a youngest heavyweight champion again, when you have let hearn make it a 1 fight a year sport

[@joseph-be6me]

Looking forward to the fight

[@adamstewart2475]

Is it just me here or… did Gareth not just get yarde beterbiev on point ?!?

[@dannyboy19999]

Why rush to give your boxing licence back in the uk benn. No investigation

[@BruthaT]

Brutha T is an intergalactic singer songwriter with music on soundcloud. He loves boxing and predicts a Beterbiev victory in 5...although he has big respect for Yarde and hopes for an upset.

[@chrishutch2387]

If Connor now identifies as clean, we have to go with it…what a world we live in ..

[@threshingfloor8591]

Dudes such a berk!

[@2blessedTB]

Another great interview mate

[@johngordon2382]

This guy talks bollocks how can Yarde be a bigger upset than loyd the ragamuffin man .loyd beat the cobra at the time top 2 pound 4 pound at his prime. He wasn’t 38 ?

[@utdkidswifeITO]

I think Lloyd Honeyghan was on steroids at the time, they all are/were!!

[@galboy5308]

Garath now's 💩

[@dannyhawthorne3262]

If you didnt think Fury had a chance v Klitscho I would go as far as to say you don't know boxing 🤷‍♂️
