    Yes early on he was listed as 6'7" and Vitali was listed as 6'8". I suspect Wlad is more likely a bit over 6'6". They just used to round up and now they just round down because he's probably closer to 6'6" than 6'7".

    I see Wlad is listed as 6'5" (1m 98'). I don't think he's 6'6" (2m .01) and I don't think Fury is 6'9" (2m 10cm). Probably 6'8" max. In fact he's listed at 2m 6cm which is shy of 6'8"

    I see most of you here are used to arguing about an inch here and there

    Fury: I'm 6'9". And I will spank Wlad in the ring, I am the new Ali...

    Hahaha, oh shít son!!!

    But yeah, 6ft 7", 6ft 8", 6ft 9". What the fúck does it matter? It's hardly going to be a determining factor in the fight.

    Having seen him in person, he is an uncommonly large human being. He does however, have some pretty ****ty posture, which explains why his height seems to vary in photos. In common with a lot of tall people, he slouches, hunches and stoops.

    Whether he is 6'9'' or not I have no idea, but he is the kind of size that people would do a double take if they passed him on the street. He is in a different category altogether to the 6'4'' / 6'5'' types that you see all the time.

    I've read quotes of people shacking his hands saying he covered their whole ones, it was like a baseball glove
