Eubank Jr won by a unanimous points decision in April.

The British Boxing Board of Control has found the pair guilty of misconduct.

The former two-weight world champion said he ‘didn’t think (he’d) see another day’.

The WBC ruled a “highly elevated consumption of eggs” was considered a “reasonable explanation” for Benn’s adverse finding.

Benn was due to face Chris Eubank Jr in October.

Benn tested positive for trace amounts of fertility drug clomiphene last month.

Promoters Matchroom and Wasserman officially announced on Thursday that Saturday’s bout at the O2 is off.

It was revealed earlier in the day that Benn had returned an ‘adverse analytical finding’.
