I don’t know the full story yet, but Connor Benn failing a drugs test for taking a fertility drug just seems funny as breaking news.

Apparently can be used as a masking agent

Report I read says it boosts testosterone.

Benn's a welterweight by trade and he's stepping up to fight a bloke who campaigns at super-middle, albeit at a catch weight of 157lbs, so one doesn't need to be Miss Marple to join the dots: he's been juicing to pack on extra muscle.

Frampton went off on it earlier.

Its probably going to happen but I actually might have to cheer on Eubank JR now.

Eddie Hearn not playing a blinder here is he?

That’s just shameless

Seems like he will have some more time to devote to family planning.

The fight will happen unfortunately as way to much money involved sadly.

 

[Niall]

I stand corrected the fight seems off, never thought I'd feel sorry for Eubank JR but oh well.

Hearn has not had a good year has he?

 

[Lillian Thomson]

Not sure there was much in it for Eubank aside from money. A potentially dangerous weight loss and scant praise if he won. It was just an awful fight.

For him a very easy 5 million so he will be gutted.

Lucas Browne upset because his fight with Dubois is not going to be commissioned. It sucks for him, but ultimately Dubois is going to murder him so stop crying Lucas.

Mildly surprised the board of control won't sanction it.

I mean, yeah Browne's 43 and obviously on the down slope, but he KOed Junior Fa in one round last time out and Fa's no stiff. Took Parker the distance and beat him twice as an amateur.

Dubois would be warm favourite, but Browne has a puncher's chance.

Sure they've sanctioned worse like, say, a super middleweight beating up a welterweight.

 

[Niall]

Beating FA is impressive but nonetheless this is to big of a step up, he got sparked out by Paul Gallen

Although to be fair Dubois has fought some bums in the past so maybe I am been harsh.

 

[Niall]

lol

Better than fighting Charr,,but ****ing hell even as a tune up fight ....Chisora for the third time is pretty dire from Tyson.

Hopefully he fights Usyk , Joyce heck anyone somewhat decent early next year .

Chisora should be retired

 

[Lillian Thomson]

Obviously not meant to be serious, but still more interesting than Chisora.

Tyson Fury calls out heavyweight with 12 losses and only nine wins - 'That's my belt!' (msn.com)

 

[Niall]

Eh......

Still looking forward to this fight, bookies fancy Shields to do it on points. Wilder also back this week ?‍? and haney v Kambosos zzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

[Niall]

Sky tried to hype up Marshall to much their as you would expect, Shields handled all her supposed power with ease, was never in doubt whatsoever for me.

Enjoyed the Mayer fight also that was much closer. Rest of the card was rotten but heh 2 good main events nonetheless.

 

[Burgey]

Be surprised if Kambosos wins a round here

 

[Niall]

Wilder v Usyk/Joyce next please.

I don't think Eddie will risk Joshua so either of those 2 dudes please.
