    I’ve seen him in person and he’s really like 5’5

    If you focus on their shoulders in the Wlad-Fury fight, I think I really do see a couple inches differences. And I do think judging by shoulders is better as they're moving their heads around so much.

    Fury was 6' 12" before he ballooned to 437 lbs. Since then his cartilage has compressed leaving him at a huge disadvantage in the HW division at 6'1".

    He's at least seven feet tall if an inch, super strong, bullet proof, and with the ability to fly and shoot death rays.

    True story.

    No, Wlad is a 6'4 guy with special insoles in his kicks to make him seem taller.

    Fury is usually slouched and still bigger than even very big men

    Fact is that fury is significantly taller then wilder and wlad in their fights. Live footage from different angles, same shoes, got probably up at the same time and stand in similar fashion, not some random pic with another guy where hundred factor can make them look taller or smaller.
    Wilder is 6‘7 so fury is at least 6‘8 my guess is rather 6‘8 and a half.

    Just to put into context. Where i live most guys my age wear sneakers with a high sole or something, while i always wear very flat shoes which I prefer. Almost all my friends think i am 2 inches smaller then i actually am. It doesnt make sense to judge from any pictures or random taken footage. Fights are the only true way to asses that.

    Wlad is a legit 6.6 . He is 2.00 m tall. I was standing in front of him when he was quite young in 2000.
    Pulev is 1.94 m and clearly shorter than wlad

    2m is 6'7''.

    Wladimir Klitschko claims 6'5''. Vitali Klitschko is a legitimate 2m 6'7'' and he is clearly more than 1" taller, more like 2". Dave Allen believes Wladimir Klitschko is 193cm 6'4'', but I can't buy that. Maybe 195cm.

    Kubrat Pulev is another height liar. The guy is not over 191cm.

    The reach is not always proportional to the size. I am 1m81 and I have a reach of 1.90 and I have a friend who is a few centimeters taller than me but he has less reach.

    For my part I think Fury should turn around 6ft7 / 2m. The tallest in the top 30 must be Price who must be around 6ft8 / 2m03.

    And in my opinion the smallest of the top 30 must be Andy Ruiz who must be 6ft0 / 1m83.

    I've met Braun Strowman up close in real life and he was effing massive, and Fury looks at least as tall as him, so I wouldn't be shocked if he is six nine or thereabouts. He's clearly a huge guy.
