Conor Benn has been cleared to return to boxing after the National Anti-Doping Panel lifted his suspension for two failed drugs tests in 2022. The 28-year-old had failed voluntary drug tests ahead of a scheduled fight with Chris Eubank Jr in October 2022, testing positive for banned substance clomifene. His licence was removed by the British Boxing Board of Control [BBBoC] but the NADP reversed their decision, stating that UKAD had not proven that Benn had committed a doping offence. Benn welcomed the decision on social media. UKAD confirmed receipt of the NADP’s decision.
I have maintained my innocence throughout and I am relieved that the truth has finally come to light.
I am now looking forward to getting back in the ring and proving myself once again. I am ready to take on any challenge that comes my way and show the world what I am truly capable of.
I want to thank my fans, friends, and family for their unwavering support during this difficult time. I couldn’t have done it without them.
Now, it’s time to focus on the future and continue to chase my dreams in the boxing world. I can’t wait to step back into the ring and show everyone what I’m made of.”
