Panel: What do you make of Conor Benn making his return in Florida this weekend?

Nick Campbell (Heavyweight prospect)ย 

I will be honest, I donโ€™t know enough about it. If he is guilty and heโ€™s allowed to box, I donโ€™t feel itโ€™s fair because itโ€™s a dangerous sport weโ€™re involved in. You can lose your life in the ring and making it a clean sport should be the paramount responsibility of promoters, fighters, managers, everyone. If heโ€™s legitimately not guilty, fair enough. If he is guilty and heโ€™s getting to box, itโ€™s not right.

Nathan Gorman (Heavyweight contender)

I havenโ€™t really been following whatโ€™s been going on. If heโ€™s guilty and he has done it, ban him for life. But if thereโ€™s evidence there and he hasnโ€™t done it, you give the lad a fair shot. Itโ€™s one of them things. Itโ€™d be good to see him back. Iโ€™d like to see Benn vs. Eubank Jr. Anyone would like to see that after what Eubank did to Liam Smith.

Jack Massey (Cruiserweight contender)

Itโ€™s not good in my opinion. There have been a few people caught out lately with positive drug tests and people should be receiving long bans but there seems to be no talk of that. I donโ€™t think he should be fighting any time soon. There are already talks about him and Eubank but there shouldnโ€™t be any talks until heโ€™s served his ban. Benn shouldnโ€™t be fighting.

Tommy Welch (Heavyweight prospect)

My thoughts on that are fantastic, heโ€™s been out of the ring now for some time. This will shake the ring rust off for him until he gets a bigger fight which everyone wants to see. Itโ€™ll put him in a better place with where he feels heโ€™s at. Heโ€™s fit, heโ€™s strong and heโ€™s ready to go. Iโ€™m sure heโ€™s chomping at the bit.
