    I've seen 6ft in a few of his early fights.

    There is a theory that woman are bad at parking, because men lie to them about what 8 inches looks like.

    There's no way he measured to 6ft, let alone nearly 6ft. The man is short for a heavy. Maybe his persona carries a height of 6ft? lol

    So he is same size as Foreman and will do similar damage.

    I have a memory of Ortiz listed reach at 79 inches before the Jennings fight.

    Prime Tyson was measured many times as 5'10" 1/2' according to a former sparring partner to him on this forum.

    Pretty sure Wilder is half an inch under the 6' 7" he is listed, seen that somewhere before.

    He's 6'4" when he wakes up in the morning. But old age does shrink you.

    This. I can understand exaggerating by an inch, but Ortiz's listed height being 6'4" was hilarious. I even doubt the 6'3" listing. 6'2" seems alot more realistic. Malik Scott, who is a legit 6'4" had at least 2 inches on Ortiz.

    HBO apparently measured him before his first title fight and declared him as being 5'11" 1/2.

    76 inch reach?

    That's pretty poor.

    I agree, my wife has a longer reach.

    Strap my wife in a chair and put a bottle of vodka 77 inches away and she's reaching it.
