    He made Wilder look like a midget in their 2nd fight

    And he made Wlad look like a small weak child

    Fury knows how use his size unlike these other lumbering oafs

    6ft9 with shoes is believable

    Must make a difference because Wlad felt the need to wear high lifts against Fury which Fury duly mocked him about before they touched gloves and history was made.

    Celebheights are very OCD about height and most list him at 6'7.5 and I say that's extremely close

    He's a little shorter than 6'8 Price, so could never be 6'9

    If he admitted it, it is probably a lie. I now believe that he is 6'9" for the first time.

    He lost 2 inches in height once he ducked the "middleweight"!

    He's 6'7.5..

    But inflates it like other showmen.

    I think Wlad is a clean 6'6 but always said he was 6'5 though

    Yeah, the Wlad and Wilder fights show it. But it actually makes his performances more impressive because he doesn't have the size advantage even he claims. And he has less muscle than some of these other SHWs around 6'6.

    I would say Wlad, Price, AJ, Wilder(roided second/third fight), Joyce, Helenius all have more muscle mass than Fury and are functionally bigger given they are around his size. Wlad was definitely bigger than skinny-fat Fury in their fight.

    He was hardly taller than Gerry Cooney a few years back and Cooney has surely even lost a bit of height as he has aged.

    Half the published heights of boxers are probably questionable and if they weren't required to weigh in, their weights would be as well.
