And following in his father’s footsteps 11-year-old Cassius showed off some impressive muscle definition.

Haye Jr was named after the great Muhammad Ali, who Haye Sr followed into the sport of boxing.

But Cassius isn’t set to follow dad into the noble art – as he is a promising tennis player at U12 level.

He has even played on the hallowed turf at Wimbledon, with Haye, his mother and his ex-wife Natasha cheering him on in a junior tournament back in 2018.

The youngster trains for eight hours a week and has been competing since he was four.

Speaking previously about his son’s future, Haye, 39, said: “Maybe in a few years, I’ll be next to Judy Murray in the players’ box at Wimbledon — you never know.

“It’s a nice sport, tennis. No punches to the head. It’s a pleasant, healthy day out. No hooligans.

“He is not interested in boxing at all, it’s tennis and football. He’s smart. I go to my son’s football matches and watch him play.

“Is he showing potential? Well, I am like every other dad who thinks their son is great — I think he is a star player but he excels in tennis.

“He became hooked when he went to the local tennis club, he just liked it.

“Nobody forced him down that line but he just likes hitting balls. He has the good hand-eye co-ordination you need for a game like tennis. He’s naturally athletic.

“He has the physique for tennis — he will be 6ft 3in or 6ft 4in. He’s got the dynamics for it, the slim shoulders, he’s got everything you’d need, all the ingredients — it’s just how he matures.”

Haye Sr retired from boxing in June 2018 after two devastating losses to Tony Bellew. He became heavyweight world champ when he outpointed Russian giant Nikolai Valuev back in 2009.

People were impressed with the father-and-son photoshoot after it was posted on Twitter.

Former TOWIE star Mario Falcone wrote: “Looking ripped bro.”

And legendary boxing announcer Michael Buffer posted: “Hayemaker looks like he’s going for the title of the most fit former Heavyweight World Champ!

“Father & Son are super fit for sure! I love it!”

Another wrote that they were a “beautiful family”, while Lloyd Hosking wrote: “Looking good Dave you will always be a champ in my eyes make sure you and the little man stay safe.”
