When Haye was "retired" do we think he was taking steroids?

    It seems pretty obvious that he was and it pretty much the same sort of case where Mayweather "retires" only to then come back a year later looking far more bulked up than ever. This thread isn't a knock on either fighter, it's just something I feel almost 100% certain that happens when a fighter in his prime years "retires" for a few months where he can't be caught doping as he's not technically a pro athlete.

    Its possible but then again ive come to accept that 90% of professional athletes not just fighters are on some sort of PED, and some just get caught

    I dislike Hayes peronality and the lack of balls he showed against Wlad as much as the next person... but your obsession with him is unhealthy dude.... seriously

    Well he's good buddies with Vitali it seems. I wouldn't be surprised if big Vitali hooked him up with some good PED gear.

    I don't know enough about Haye to say whether he was on PEDs or not. As far as PBF... Didn't he go up in weight? I think it's only normal for a fighter who goes up in weight to get bulkier as he ages, specially someone like Mayweather who is a gym rat. Now, I could be wrong, but I don't think he was on PEDs. His mass gain hasn't been so significant as to be unjustifiable by his going up in weight.

    I'm a haye fan and think he has at some point. Def some hgh.

    Whether or not he is at the moment who knows,

    Here is a pic from awhile back, don't think he was in a training camp at the time.

  9. I am not a Haye fan at all but don't assume everyone is on the juice. It's called working out.
    The most Haye is is 225. He weighed 220 for the Wlad fight and now he might be 225.
    Manning,perhaps you would like to admit that you want to sleep on David Haye's Herculean body? Perhaps a little jealousy? I suggest therapy.

    The man's a classic steroid case. It's written all over his roadmap veins.

    But then again, who the hell isn't on steroids these days?

    You don't need to retire to dope as testing is almost non-existent and you have to be an idiot to get caught. Also, just like the top athletes in other sports, the top boxers can afford the substances that won't show up on tests.

    Lads what is all this crap in the last 12 months accusing every boxer under the sun of being on steroids since floyd first accused Manny.

    Haye is a professional athlete so he is always in the gym, the guy was alwasy ripped

    Haye probably already used HGH to bulk up before, his pecks are ridiculously pumped compared to at Cruiser.
