    I think Beckham is 6 foot and an average sized man. Look how he sizes up with Vitali who is clearly a monster of a man.

    Note: Vitali should pick apart Arreola unless he isn't the same fighter anymore. Given his age this could happen any time.

    Thats nuts, Becks is a tall 6ft, long body with small head - he looks like a dwarf next to vit.

    Vitali has to be 6'9" most listings have him 6'7" 6'8"but he's bigger than that.

    How old does Vitali look in that picture though?

    Vitali is old and he fights old. He's only got away with it because he's been fighting jokers like Sam Peter and Gomez that can't get near him.

    Cant blame him for a **** division, he'll do the same to Areolla.

    Who do you think beats him in todays division? Povetkin? Chambers? :think

    I think those two stand a better chance than Arreola but are still not favourites.

    I've heard from many people, including those that have actually MET Beckham, that he is actually nowhere near 6 foot.

    I didn't think he was 6ft either. 5' 10/11 and he's pretty damn skinny! Vitali is a beast, though not very photogenic :lol:

    Vitali is 6 feet 8.5 inches tall. Vitali is not slow, he is quick, great defense, can punch, he will knock Arreola out and would have knocked Haye out. Chambers has no chance vs. Vitali either.

    Vitali looks like he listens to Dad Rock.
