Conor Benn is to return to the WBC rankings after it was deemed his “highly-elevated consumption of eggs” was a “reasonable explanation” for his failed drugs test last year.

Benn tested positive for a banned substance ahead of a bout with Chris Eubank Jr, that had been scheduled to take place in October last year at a catchweight.

After the adverse findings were uncovered the British Boxing Board of Control prohibited Benn’s bout with Eubank from taking place and the promoters eventually cancelled it.
