David Haye is a former professional boxer who transformed from world champion athlete to performance expert. His rare achievement as one of only three boxers to unify cruiserweight titles and capture heavyweight gold showcases his exceptional strategic approach to success.

During his illustrious boxing career, Haye amassed an impressive 28-4 record with 26 knockouts, claiming multiple world championships including the WBA and WBC titles. His historic victory over Nikolai Valuev for the WBA Heavyweight Championship in 2009 cemented his place among boxing's elite alongside legends Evander Holyfield and Oleksandr Usyk.

As a speaker, David translates the mental fortitude and strategic thinking from his boxing career into actionable insights for organisations facing competitive challenges. He helps businesses develop resilience strategies, overcome performance plateaus, and build teams capable of delivering under pressure—skills particularly valuable in today's volatile market conditions.

Have all the speakers on the website previously worked with PepTalk?

Not necessarily. While the speakers listed on our website may not have worked with PepTalk in the past, they are recognized professionals in the industry and known to engage in similar events and engagements. We work with a wide variety of speaker agents and talent agencies to ensure we have the best selection of speakers, hosts, comedians and entertainers available.

Can I request a speaker to send a personal greeting?

We do not accommodate requests for birthday messages or any other personal, non-commercial contact with the speakers, comedians or entertainers.

How much do speakers and comedians cost?

We work with speakers across a variety of fee ranges, giving you the flexibility to choose someone who fits your event's needs. Virtual keynote fees in the UK and Europe typically start at £2,000, while in-person top-tier speakers can reach £25,000. In the US, virtual in-person fees range from $5,000 to over $100,000, depending on the speaker and format, such as after-dinner talks, conference keynotes, Q&As, or podcasts. Comedians generally start at £1,500 or $2,000 for a 20-minute set.

Our goal is to help you find the speaker who best matches your event’s goals and budget. We take the time to understand your event, objectives, and audience to recommend the right fit. The most expensive option isn’t always the best one, and our priority is finding the ideal speaker or expert for your needs; not the highest-priced one.
