Conor Benn has been provisionally suspended from fighting again after successful appeals by UK Anti-Doping (Ukad) and the British Boxing Board of Control (BBBofC).<\/b><\/p>\n
Benn was initially suspended from boxing in March 2023 after he failed two voluntary tests for female fertility drug clomifene before his cancelled bout with fellow Briton Chris Eubank Jr.<\/a><\/p>\n The National Anti-Doping Panel lifted the 27-year-old’s suspension last July and Benn believed he was free to fight<\/a> in the United Kingdom again.<\/p>\n However, appeals made by Ukad and the BBBofC against that decision were upheld on Friday.<\/p>\n BBBofC general secretary Robert Smith said Benn was provisionally barred from participating in any capacity in a competition organised, convened, authorised or recognised by the BBBofC.<\/p>\n “UKAD and the BBBoC were successful in their respective appeals of a decision handed down by a tribunal of the independent National Anti-Doping Panel in July 2023,” he added in a statement.<\/p>\n “Mr Benn’s provisional suspension was reimposed by the appeal tribunal following those successful appeals.”<\/p>\n
