so you talk about the height of shavers 6´0 like a fact but every other measurement of other fighters are questionable? You could think about shavers being taller than 6´0 and not about tyson being shorter than 5´10
This content is protected This content is protected hagler with tyson and shavers hagler is listed at 5´9 1/2( 1,77 ) so tyson is not 5´9 not even close, he was clearly taller than hagler(yes yes i know i know hagler now is not 5´9 he was 5´4 in order to make tyson look a 5´9 guy)
TYSON IS CLEARLY A BIT TALLER THAN LEONARD WHO WAS LISTED AT 5´10, FRAZIER AND TYSON WERE TALLER HAN LEONARD This content is protected This content is protected
Ali was listed at 6'2.5 in the real early fights like pre liston pre archie moore fights. I recall being at one of his fights when he was big in the 60s in kentucky but before he blew up nationally. He was usually listed as 6 2.5 but I imagine he could have grown between stretching and growing as men don't stop growing until 21-25 when the bones fuse. Ali never lifted weights.
Tale of the tape is always a little off. My brother met David Haye in London a while ago and got a photo, I think Haye is listed as 6'3, I'm exactly 6'2 in bare feet and I'm a little taller. p.s he has a limp handshake.
sometimes people are measured at different heights because sometimes when being measured you stand taller and straighter than other times and sometimes you slouch slightly it all makes a difference.
ray leonard is tiny. I did security for a dinner event for him, he is not a big guy - and why should he be? He was a welterweight. I would say 5'7" tops.
The truth is nobody is 6'3" because the ones who are list themselves as 6'5". 6'7" has become become the new 6'5" and so on. its like shoe sizes. I used t o always be a uk size 11. Now its 12...
