    I believe his claims of 5'8''-5'9' from the Ortiz weigh ins and stuff'. Floyd is a legit 5'8'' but people think he's smaller because of his smallish frame, these athletic little guys look shorter than they are in general. In real life Berto's legs are probably like little tooth picks - Winky Wright had some of the skinniest calves I've ever seen in person, and looked pretty damn small too, but up close he really was definitely over 5'8'', I think Berto gives the same impression.

    Plus nobody gives a **** about Berthoes Gaytian ass. He's no more than a steeping stone at this point.

    Ok maybe I was lucky but I watched him only against Collazo, Ortiz and Ghost and all those fights were pretty great. He will never be a p4p type of fighter but he is highly entertaining when matched with the right style.

    Don't speak on an Alpha bro!! Just saying... The boxers that get paid the big bucks are some Bad Mofo's.. They don't need little bitches questioning what they do!!

    You can take 1-2 inches off nearly all listed heights

    Berto probably 5'7" really. ODLH is no more than 5'9", etc

    Broner is another example of this. Rios and Maidana have the opposite build.

    That's not a real tattoo and the picture is at least 1 yr old.

    Yes floyd is five eight I looked him dead in the eye and outside witnesses corroborated we were the same height. I used to run into him quite a bit. He is small boned though and doesn't take up much space so people underestimate his height
