Conor Benn Cleared of Doping Charges, Set to Resume UK Boxing

The National Anti-Doping Panel has cleared Benn, allowing him to fight after a two-year suspension following failed drug tests.

  • Conor Benn was initially suspended after testing positive for clomifene before a scheduled fight with Chris Eubank Jr. in 2022.
  • The National Anti-Doping Panel (NADP) reversed a previous suspension reinstatement, citing insufficient evidence of doping.
  • Benn has maintained his innocence throughout the two-year ordeal and expressed relief over the panel's decision.
  • Despite the clearance, the UK Anti-Doping Agency (Ukad) is considering a further appeal against the NADP's ruling.
  • Benn, who has fought and won twice in the US during his suspension, is eager to return to the UK boxing scene.
