Matchroom promotor Eddie Hearn has confirmed Conor Benn has returned an “adverse analytical finding for trace amounts of a fertility drug” but confirmed Saturday’s fight with Chris Eubank Jr at the O2 Arena remains on.
Benn and Eubank Jr are set clash in a catchweight contest in what would be the third bout between the families, after their fathers fought twice in the early 1990s in one of British boxing’s greatest rivalries.
But the London bout was thrown into doubt following reports of Benn’s drug test until his promotor confirmed it will still go ahead.
