    We have no idea what kind of shoes they were wearing. Usyk could be wearing boots. Fury could be wearing flats. That alone would shave inches off between them.

    Fury actually mocked Usyk to his face last time they met,, about how small he was.. Honestly, to me Usyk seems like the type that knew he was going to see Fury again there and wore lifts just as a joke.

    But yes, in that specific video, the height difference looks shockingly negligible.

    I doubt it will look like that in the ring.

    The real height difference is likely 4.5", or a little more.
    Fury 6' 6" is absurd, but he may be only 6'7.5".
    Obviously Usyk is at max his listed 6'3".
    In terms of bone structure & wingspan it is also a substantial discrepancy.

    Although Usyk has worked out enough to keep the actual muscle per square inch close.

    I'd even take 1 or 2 cm away from that height, Fury is probably 200cm or 201cm

    No way 200 cm. He is clearly taller than Braun Strowman who is 199.5 cm. Fury is 201.5 or 202 cm.

    Honestly it doesn't matter whether Fury is a couple of inches shorter than he claims or whatever, because he fights like a giant. There's nobody in the division who would dominate him physically. He'll never be the small man in the ring.

    He uses his height and size in a way Joshua and Wilder never really mastered.

    Even the voice of balance and reason, John Fury has referred to Tyson as being 6’7”

    Just stop this 6’9” nonsense

    Fury is no taller than 6'7"

    Usyk looks like a full 6'3"

    About 4 inches of height

    Yes, Fury is significantly taller than Usyk.
    The only debate being had here is whether he's "only" 3 or 4 inches taller than him! :lol:

    Has he? Never heard that.

    I've heard him refer to him as "7 foot" a few times, though.

    He is clearly not over 201cm.
