    Why is David Hayes stamina so bad?

    Fantastic physique

    Is it genetics? Too much partying? Training more like a bodybuilder than boxer?

    I always felt he was a naturally smaller guy. Skinny neck, peahead, small wrists just a small frame carrying a lot of muscle.

    He has always had horrendous stamina among the worst I've seen from a top level boxer. The odd times he went late into a fight he barely threw a punch. Last night he was gassed in the second round!

    He gassed vs Thompson - granted he threw the kitchen sink at The Cat, he was exhausted vs Chisora a few rounds in so I'm not buying its age.
    Intrigued to what you guys think.

      Probably this.

      Sniffing the coke caught up to him at last, not only that he's at an age where most fighters lose their athleticism.

      He should not have retired after the Klitschko fight and should've remained active instead of partying etc.

        He's answered your question, before, in interviews.

        He does almost no road work in training.

            Long term effects of steroid use. He’s probably been off the juice for a few years because of advanced testing. But injuries like his & in such succession is directly related to steroid use

                Too much sex with other men, it takes its toll eventually on the mind and body.
