Fighters who where ****sexuall?

[NChristo]

David Haye openly joked about it, though I think his joke referred to his boxing record rather than ****sexual activity.

David Haye said that he's slept with 200 women and 22 men or something, remember there being a thread made about it in NSB.

Floyd Mayweather.

Many wondered why Lewis got so defensive with Rahman about his alledged ****sexuality check it out:

Hi NChristo, at the time David Haye said that, he had beaten 22 men in the ring.......that was his record at the time, it was a play on the word 'f##ked' from memory.

I'm not aware that David Haye is actually gay.

Ah k then, I didn't hear the full story or interview, just the NSB talk, didn't really think much of it though tbh, don't really care about this sort of thing.

Aside from Griffith,

Freddie Mills

The rest is unfounded rumours and speculation.

Mills is rumour too he certainly wasn't openly gay if there was any truth to it.
Other rumours about Mills was that he was Jack the Stripper a serial killer of women, kind of the other extreme I guess.

Think it comes down to the circumstances of his suicide were a bit foggy so people have worked backwards as to why and gilded the lily a bit.

You're right that it's unproven but I got the information from some fairly reliable people who seemed certain about it. I do realize though that there are a ton of rumours about Mills and it goes against what I said, but I thought I'd contribute to something other than the obvious. Everyone knows Griffith, and even in Griffith's case he continued to deny the allegations until his later years, and most probably know about Panama Al Brown by now.

When it comes to Lewis, Ali, Haye and others that have been named, there's absolutely nothing but made-up false rumours that can support these claims.

As someone who was in his prime in London around the time that Freddie took his life, there were so many rumours floating around about how as brave a fighter as Mills could take his own life.
Rope in the Kray twins (who were rumoured to have had a hand in his murder) who he socialised with, one being gay and 2+2=5.
I really don't think there was much to it than rumour mongering GreatA in all honesty but I guess we'll never know.
Trust me as reliable people have Mills down as Jack the Stripper!

There are very few who seem to be open about it. Though I dont doubt that there are many who might be bisexual OR may have partaken in ****sexual activity.

I've heard rumours about Tommy Morrison, Mike Tyson and Emile Griffith having been involved in ****sexual activity, but I'm sure they aren't/weren't gay as a preference to the ladies. I've heard stories about Tyson's prison life and about Morrison's mad orgies. Griffith seems to change his mind on the subject.

David Haye openly joked about it, though I think his joke referred to his boxing record rather than ****sexual activity.

Chris Eubank can come across as a touch effeminate, but he was a true warrior in the ring with a family. I've never doubted his sexual preference.

Being openly gay could be very marketable for a decent fighter! A really flamboyant, bitchy, preening showman entering the arena to YMCA booming out! I know its a crass stereotype, but it could sell alot of tickets especially if he was a good fighter!

Sugarj , only now I understood your first quoted post and NChristo's post , you made it clear.

ive heard about lennox as well. lennox doesnt have any kids & has never been married.

side note, reading the book of basketball by bill simmons. in it he claims that wilt chamberlain is gay. for all the talk of wilt sleeping with so many women, not a single teammate has ever seen wilt with a woman.

wilt also never married nor had a son & died alone.
