    I'm 6ft 2 1/2 and I've stood next to Haye a few times and I know I'm just a touch taller than him. i would say he is 6ft 1, no way in hell is he 6ft 3, that's pure fantasy, or I'm 6ft 4 and I know for a FACT I'm not 6ft 4 lol

    Is there a photo of Haye next to Adamek? Because I think Adamek is exactly 190 cm tall which is 6 foot 2.8 inches (roughly 6'3")

    I'd say Wladimir is 6'6 or maybe a little bit bigger and Haye is only 6'1 or 6'2. Wladimir is obviously bigger than 6'5, especially if Haye is 6'3 (which I don't think he is).

    I don't think Adamek is that tall.

    Haye will be 1.5 feet lying down - maybe a bit more depending on what topping he has on his face.

    Mike used high shoes to make himself look taller. Also Hagler, Mosley and Leonard all execrated their height.

    That guy on Mikes left side is on real life only 5`7

    Your sense of humour is rubbish. I'm 6'3 1/2 and I've met Mike and he is definetly about 6'0.

    i think wladimir is 6"6, and haye is about 6"1. Wladimir doesn't want to be made a giant by the media, i don't know why, it might be because he doesn't want that as an excuse if he beats haye, which is silly because everybody can tell he's alot bigger than haye.

    i think why fighters get muddled up with height difference is because some fighters do their height with shoes, and some do it bare footed, which is why some get confused.

    Tyson is 5"11 when in shoes.

    Believe me he's. Arreole is listed 6'4'' and Adamek was about the same face to face. I'm not saying Adamek is 6'4'' but he's taller than he's listed 6'1/2.

    Haye must be 6'2''.

    I believe Wladimir Klitschko is 6'5 if that's what he says.
    That's the same height as Lennox Lewis.

    Maybe Klitschko is just under 6'6, as someone mentioned, he's converting from 197 cm.

    That's not true. Trust me, Mike is around 5'10" or just under.
