Boxer Conor Benn Opens His Voice About Doping Test Problems, WBC Becomes Target

JAKARTA Boxer Conor Benn opened his voice and criticized the World Boxing Council (WBC) after the agency gave an explanation about his doping saga.

He also blamed the Anti-Doping Voluntary Association (VADA) for allegedly making carelessness in his test.

This 26-year-old welterweight boxer failed two VADA tests last summer. During the test, she found the fertility agent of a clusterifene woman in her organs.

The test results made the England Boxing Supervisory Board cancel their fight against Chris Eubank Jr ahead of D day.

However, he has now returned to the WBC welterweight ranking list. That's after the WBC understood the 'large number of egg consumption by Benn could be a plausible explanation' of the positive results on the Clomiphene doping test.

Comments on egg consumption sparked anger from Conor. He said, in the defense sent to the WBC in the form of 270-page document, none of the points showed he failed the VADA test due to excessive egg contamination.

"The WBC instructed its experts to analyze my supplements and diet and they concluded that egg contamination was the most likely cause," he said.

Benn also insisted that one of the samples gave negative results three times. However, the fourth test on the same urine recorded traces of prohibited substances.

The father of one child also insisted that in accordance with the rules he sent a legal representative to America to watch his B sample open, it was still rejected.

"These critical findings are supported by an independent scientist who provides accreditation to his laboratory and opinion is that there are many problems that are very disturbing and serious so that laboratories can lose their accreditation," said Benn.

"My defense is not a technical defense to exploit loopholes. I'm sure that substance was never in my system and I certainly never intentionally exploited it," he added.

The WBC previously said there were no failures in procedures related to sample collection, sample analysis, or rights violations of the B Benn Sample, which would justify, question, or cancel harmful findings.

"And the documented and very high consumption of eggs by Benn during the time relevant to sampling, provides a reasonable explanation for these adverse findings," explained the WBC.
