    Boxrec has him listed as 5'7. Here he is beside Devon lexander (5 eight) Maidana (5'9) and Perez (5'6)

    Maidana is the 2nd shortest guy therefore can't be taller than Alexander....

    I'm not sure whos height is a lie but someone's is.

    But look how small he looks compared to Kellerman, who is about 5'11.

    Did you watch Broner vs Perez? Broner looked 2-3 inches taller. Maybe Perez is 5'5 and Broner is 5'7-5'8

    He's leaning back a bit, I think he's about 5'8. One inch difference is a lot in boxing

    From experience I can say sometimes dress shits bag up under sweaters and make you look bulky if they are not the fitted type.

    Boxrec has Gavin Rees at 5'7 yet he looks shorter more like 5'4 or 5'5. And it is the same for many fighters.

    The most boxers are actually shorter than they're listed Broner is
    probably really 5 7 and the others are shorter than their boxrec says
