    Is the egomaniac Ronaldo wearing lifts and maximising his height for a photo with a HW boxer or is Kevin Johnson really 6ft even and Anthony Joshua only 6ft 3ins - https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.sk...can-trouble-anthony-joshua-says-glenn-mccrory

    Hmm, tough one....

    Even if the latter were true, which it isnt, that puts Kabayel at around 6ft, which is as far from the 5ft 9ins you claim as the 6ft 3ins listing you riducle.

    Genuine question, do you realise that there are 12 inches in a foot? I.e. 5ft 9ins is three inches under 6ft? Because 5ft 9ins is a laughably poor guess for Kabayel's height, even based on the Ronaldo picture in isolation.

    I'd also guess Kabayel at around 6ft 2ins.

    Shortbayel is as far away from 6'3 as he is from 5'9. How tragic.

    AJ has got to be 6'4"-6'5" given his physique. Big muscles, lean, and 250lbs? He's a big dude.

    He looked within half an inch of Wlad to me, who is 6ft 5.5ins-6ft 6ins. I'd guess around 6ft 5.5ins for AJ.

    Fury would still find a way to drag out negotiations as a 90 percent A side ... and duck him.

    My problem with the heavyweights in your example is they all fraud their heights to an extent which makes it really unreliable. Ronaldo is 6'1 at celebheights with tons of evidence and he is legit towering over Kabayel WHILE leaning forward and you are trying to sweep this under the rug

    No, Ronaldo looks around an inch taller. Assuming neutral footwear and posture (we can see their upper bodies, but not if their knees are bent or if they are on tiptoes) that puts Kabayel at around 6ft.

    So, in this thread, there are links to 3 x height comparator photos, that assuming neutral footwear and posture, but Kabayel around 6ft, 6ft 2ins and 6ft 3ins respectivly.

    The guy being used as a comparator in the 6ft instance is an egomaniac and is known for wearing lifts. As I said, 6ft 2ins is a sensible guess for Kabayel. 5ft 9ins is farcical.

    How many inches do you think are between 6ft 1ins and 5ft 9ins?

    Ah, I missed this, my apologies, you're a child.

    Ignore my subsequent response to your post, as I'll be ignoring any more of yours to mine.

    What the hell? Did people miss my message? Literally Google Ronaldo tip toe. Dude is so insecure he tip toes in pictures.

    1 inch is a huge undersell and you HAVE to assume Ronaldo is wearing lifts here because he could just as well be wearing regular shoes. You're the one using your vivid imagination and forcing that in there and not big enough to admit it. Again for Kabayel to be 6'3 Ronaldo would have to be wearing lifts that make him around 6'5 and everyone in the world would notice and he'd look ridiculous. And he's leaning forward! If we do assume Ronaldo is 6'1 here, and yes we can do that, that does put Shortbayel firmly 6'0 and under

    If we assume he's tip toeing (again don't just quickly gloss over the fact that we have to assume this) then he's not wearing lifts because then his heels wouldn't even be on the ground. It doesn't really make sense for him to both tip toe AND lean forward either. Is he trying to look taller or look shorter? Which is it? Also "Ronaldo tip toe" on google images yields only team photos where Ronaldo has to line himself up with his row of teammates for the sake of the picture. Its somewhat understandable.

    I mean, if you look where they are standing, Ronaldo is in front of his seat at ringside. It isn't inconceivable that the ringside seats are slightly elevated. Ronaldo may be just standing in an elevated position and Kabayel is not. Basically, without seeing what is going on below the waste it would be difficult to tell much of anything about relative heights.

    Ronaldo’s eyes line up with Kabayel’s eyebrows, that’s not even an inch. Boxing shoes are known for having flat soles. Based on OP’s picture it’s not even apparent that Ronaldo is taller than Kabayel even if Ronaldo is wearing normal shoes.
