    Adamek is probably around 6'1. I never thought Chris A was 6'4 when I first saw him. He looked around 6'2-6'3 expecially in those photos with Paul Williams.

    Adamek is about 6'3''. Saw him yesterday in Wroclaw and I'm 6'5''. Hardly any taller than him. I'd say he is a solid 6'3''.

    Why doesn't he get dwarfed by 6'6 McBride then?

    IDK, maybe McBride is cheating also. Just like Duran listed as 5'10.

    You're right, McBride is probably only 6'3 1/2 which makes Tyson around 5'7.
    McBride got the name The Clones Colossus for marketing reasons only. His real nickname should be "The only slightly above average guy from Clones".

    Who listed Duran as 5'10? I thought it was widely believed that he was no more than 5'8 or 5'7?

    Not saying definite but boxer's heights are very exaggerated sometimes. Tyson is about 5'10 but I've seen him listed as 5'11 1/2 most of his career and as high as 6'1. Ben Tackie was listed as 5'11 in one place and 5'7 in the other. Same with Duran.

    If McBride is cheating, how tall is Tyson?

    The heights get exaggerated sometimes. Arreola is 6'2", not 6'4" for instance. He was always listed as being 6'2" until around the McCline fight, and when he was standing next to Paul Williams, Tall Paul clearly had an inch or so on him. IMO, Adamek is a legit 6' 1 1/2"

    :lol: Anyways who knows how tall he is. And apparently whoever checks his hieght before the fight dosen't know how. Vitali looks like a Giant that makes Adamek look like a little ltroll. I'd say 6' 1 1/2 is about right,

    Mcbride is tall 6'4 1/2 or so I'd say comparing him to Adamek. But Adamek is 6'1 1/2 I think.

    Tyson is def 5'10 at most. Look at the guy in his prime. He never weighed over 220 on fight night and he looked like the Hulk.
