Unbeaten world champion 'to be stripped of title' for positive drugs test like Conor Benn
, he is ‘expected to be stripped’ of that belt as a consequence for his positive test, though the WBA are yet to officially confirm this.With Benn’s situation, a very different and far less straightforward situation has taken place.
The Brit instead co-operated with the separate WBC investigation into his positive drugs tests, which never held the power to ban him, only to remove him from their rankings. When the WBC ultimately made their ruling and chose to reinstate Benn into their welterweight top 15, he rejected their reasoning.
The sanctioning body dismissed Benn’s claims of lab errors and instead suggested a highly elevated consumption of eggs could have been the cause of his positive tests for clomifene.
