Conor Benn Cleared of Cheating Allegations Following Drug Test Failures
- Conor Benn's boxing license suspension followed his failures in two drug tests in late 2022.
- The National Anti-Doping Panel ruled that there was insufficient proof of wrongdoing against Benn.
- Benn expressed his gratitude for the support received during this difficult time and is looking forward to resuming his boxing career.
Conor Benn, a British boxer, has been recently cleared of any anti-doping violations by the National Anti-Doping Panel after a long-standing suspension and scandal. This saga began in October 2022 when Benn failed two drug tests, leading to the cancellation of his fight against Chris Eubank Jr. and a suspension of his boxing license by the British Boxing Board of Control. In a statement released after the NADP's ruling, Benn expressed his relief and gratitude, stating that he had maintained his innocence throughout the ordeal. Despite the ruling in his favor, the UK Anti-Doping has the option to appeal within 21 days, leaving some uncertainty about the finality of this outcome. Benn, who has remained focused and disciplined during this challenging period, is eager to return to the boxing ring and prove himself after more than two years away from competition.
