Former world champion's son exhibits chiseled body at 17, identities of the renowned dad a mystery
Rewritten Article:
The 17-year-old prodigy, Cassius Haye, son of the notorious boxer David Haye, has been turning some heads lately, showcasing his ripped physique and dedication to fitness.
David Haye, a former world champion in both cruiserweight and heavyweight divisions, hasn't held back in praising his son's hard work and determination. In a post celebrating Cassius's birthday, he wrote, "My eldest son just turned 17, and I can't believe how fast the years have flown. From a fearless little boy to a focused young man, he's now living on his own, competing full-time on the Spanish tennis circuit since last August."
Cassius's father continued, "I'm incredibly proud of the way he's chasing his sporting dreams with discipline and maturity beyond his years. He's grown into a beautiful young man - inside and out... and at 6'4, he's now officially taller than me (not that I'm bitter about it). Big things ahead. Watch this space."
The resemblance between the father and son doesn't end with their heights – Cassius has taken up fitness training under David's guidance1. In April 2025, a workout picture of the duo surfaced, with David referring to Cassius as his "mini-Hercules," further hinting at their training sessions together3.
Although Cassius's professional sports career isn't fully established, social media users have expressed their admiration for his dedication and impressive physique. As a testament to his growth, fans have been comparing recent photos to throwback images posted by David Haye3.
While Cassius has chosen not to follow his father's footsteps into boxing, he has ventured into tennis3. Recently, he's been putting in the work to make strides on the incredibly challenging tennis circuit3. His unlikely rendezvous with the sports world has undoubtedly left people talking.
On a different note, David Haye has made headlines time and again, not just for his sports career but also his love life4. In 2020, he began dating Sian Osbourne, with the couple embracing an unconventional 'open' relationship, often involving a third party4.
Their relationship generated considerable public interest, reaching a peak in 2023 when rumors swirled about Haye being in a three-way relationship with both Sian and Una Healy, claims strongly denied by Healy4. Couple and trio photos, including beach and dinner shots, fueled the fire, only for Una to later state that she never intentionally participated in a throuple4.
With the pop star denying any involvement, the trio continued to post cosy snaps, maintaining their public presence. Helen Flanagan, actress and mother-of-three, confirmed the romance in September 2024 on Celebs Go Dating, admitting her feelings for David despite the internal struggles that came with being in a relationship with two people4.
Breaking into tears on the show, Helen expressed her difficulties adjusting to being part of a trio, explaining, "I struggle with not being the only one. I want to spend every moment with him. I just feel like I'm always having to share him with someone else, and I can't handle it."
