    I think I saw Michael Spinks listed as 6'3 once when he was really about 6'1 and a half inches tall.

    I think it was Leon who was listed as 6’ 1 1/2”. Mike I thought was given 6’2” and sometimes 6’ 2 1/2”.

    As to 6’3” and above, Dokes might’ve been 1” to 1 1/2” less than his 6’3” listing. With the fro though, easy 6’4”.
