Fury doesn`t look that much taller than Usyk

Usyk 6'2 or 188cm
Fury 6'7 or 200cm

 

If Fury is "only" 6'7, then that must make Wilder "only" 6'5.

For Fury to be 6'6 or 6'7, it would mean a lot of guys would have to have been lying about their height

 

Fury is 6'7.5" not 6'9"
Wilder is 6'6.5" not 6'7"
AJ is 6'5.5" not 6'6"
Whyte is 6'3" not 6'4"

All exaggerate because is looks and sounds good, size matters at HW. sizing each other up has always been a thing in boxing. Why Wlad wore 1 inch heels with Fury...then shrunk come fight night.

Men this big can grow or shrink half and inch anyway overnight.

Difference with Fury is his torso is massive compared to equally tall men. Wilder, AJ & Wlad are extremely strong muscular fighters but Fury can ragdoll them, he is a caveman with stamina.

 

200 twitter followers. Mark congrats. At what point do we consider you an influencer?

 

Its always same talk how he dosent seem tall untill they are actualy in the ring and he towers over his opponent

 

If a random website said it, then that settles it.

 

It’s just a bad camera angle and probably poor posture from Fury who tends to slouch his shoulders and not stand straight. There’s about 5 inches in height between them.

 

It's hardly a random website, is it? It literally includes hundreds of photographic sources to determine the height.

Not the brightest spark, are you?

 

One camera angle is hardly definitive

Fury was clearly more than half an inch taller than Wilder in their fights.

 

And how many of the pictures calibrated with verified heights?

 

How many do you think?

The website is not supported by empirical evidence, but I struggle to fathom how that means that a personal testimony is closer to the truth.

Hundreds of photos from various angles, with subjects sporting differing footwear or standing barefoot, standing with countless people with which to compare, clearly offers a better gauge than anything aside from personally measuring the subject with a stadiometer.

Haven't you met a boxer yourself? I have met several and the majority inflate their height considerably (normally ~3-5cm).

 

Celebheights is legitimate.

 

I'm not arguing for what you are arguing against.

Only that a website run by someone with a weird height obsession is hardly definitive.
