    He is 6'7". It can be seen when face to face with Braun Strowman..who is 6'6" (who lies about being 6'8").

    You hit the spot. Every person is taller in the morning when they get out of bed than in the evening.

    Fury was 6'9'' tall, but when he stopped eating wild boar meat - he shrunk :D

    If you posted on this thread about every pro athlete who has lied about their height or weight, it would run to eternity.

    Nah they rigged these scales and the temperature was over 30 Celsius, I met 79 year old mike Tyson in person and he was 1 inch smaller than me and I'm 5'11 precisely on a good day when I've jerked off and eaten my cornflakes. You can't convince me he is 5'11"'what next the earth is square? Pfff

    We all know how insecure the man is, that's obvious. Everything you see in public is a massive front. Notice how every time he faces off with a fighter, despite already being tall, he still likes to stand on his tip-toes for a second, to try and hover over them and intimidate. It doesn't look intimidating though, it just makes him look like a fool.

    I honestly believe the only time we've ever seen the REAL Tyson Fury was in that face-to-face sit down with Wlad, when he was in a real bad place mentally. He let his guard down and said things I'd never heard him admit anywhere else, that he was a light puncher, that he might lose, etc. I've always found that quite an emotional watch as you can see how broken he was at the time. In a sad way though, it made him more likeable, rather than all the nonsense you usually get from him.

    I just think it points out that Fury has the mind of a WWE wrestler, he really reminds me of Hulk Hogan.

    WTF? Why would they do that unless they are in the WWE? Lied about their weight?

    Wach is 6'7.5" inches tall. Here is Fury standing next to him.

    Fury looks slightly taller, so I think he's about 6'8", not 6'9". With sneakers on, Fury is about 6'9".

    They look around the same height, at one point Fury is standing on the tips of his toes.

    At the 9 second mark, they're both standing flat.

    Fury is a bit taller. See the image below.

    So unless Wach is lying about his height, Fury is about 6'8".

    Whether we like it or not, boxing is part of the entertainment business, competing for the entertainment dollar. Why have boxing faceoffs and press conferences become such circus sideshows? Is it because every event is between guys who hate each other? Hell no, it's about selling tickets. $$$$$

    Tyson Fury is 7 feet tall. Kills men by the hundreds, shoots fire balls from his eyes and lightning bolts from his arse!
