    My trainer who has met him says he's taller than me but I disagree. I'm a legit 6'2". Before Arreola signed with HBO he was billed at 6'1". Then at 6'4". Some places even have him listed at 6'4" and a half! How tall do you think he is? Here is a picture of him next to Adamek who I've seen listed at 6'1":

    All the Adameck outside the ring pictures made it look like the stats on these guys were wrong, but damn it, I saw Adamek looking the same height as Monte Barrett in a picture of the two and Adameck did look shorter in the ring with Arreola. I think this Pole wears lifts in his shoes or something. I guess Arreola at about 6'3. The camera randomly deducts two inches and adds sixty pounds, I hear.

    He is reported to be 6 feet 4 inches tall. Adamek is supposed to be around 6' 2.5 inches tall, sometimes reported to be 6'3" tall. I have never heard or read that Adamek is only 6 feet 1 inches tall.

    Arreola is 6'4 more so i would say. I stand at 5'10 and when i met him he certainly was taller then my friend who was 6'1.

    Adamek looked taller than Barrett in the picture, but Barrett is supposed to be 3 foot 3 inches tall. You never know, shoes can make a huge difference.

    Sonny Liston supposedly did wear lifts, even though he wasn't a short man. :conf Maybe Adamek thinks he's getting a psychological edge.

    Is the burrito a valid UOM?

    He is over six burritos tall.

    6'4 looks realistic there, to me. As well as does a good Jenny Craig program.

    alright, you are taller than Chris Arreola. Your disagreement is justified. Be happy!
