Chris Eubank Jr has denied he had spoke to Conor Benn this morning after it emerged one of his drug tests had resulted in an adverse finding.
The pair were set to revive their families' decades-long rivalry on Saturday night at The O2 arena in a huge pay-per-view clash, but the fight hangs in the balance. Benn tested positive for trace amounts of clomifene, which is a female fertility drug which can also boost testosterone levels in men, but has since passed UKAD tests.
And Benn claimed he and Eubank Jr discussed the test, although his rival claims that they have not spoken since it was confirmed. There could be a miscommunication given that the test took place at the end of August, and the results have reportedly been known to promoters for a longer period of time than just the last few hours.
