Sunny Edwards candidly expressed his opinions on the Conor Benn fiasco. Last year in October, the former welterweight champion tested positive for Clomiphene in his VADA drug test. Since then, Benn has been in controversy and the fiasco exacerbated as and when Benn vehemently opposed consuming or injecting any banned substances.
