Khali didn't need a muscle suit, the guy is literally a human incredible hulk.
Vegas says on 31/Aug/10
khalis debut was an exact copy of gonzales debut so yeah it did remind us of gonzales, that and incredibly lazy booking on behalf of creative, all that was missing was the muscle suit on khali, for what its worth gonzales debut was very similiar to how zeus aka tiny lister debuted Big Show says on 30/Aug/10
swarupb says on 29/Aug/10
Vegas, Khali still looks more massive and Gigantic compared to these two. Besides, Khali's debut was very impressive and reminded us of Giant Gonzales. These two new ones have a long way to go.
His wrestling style reminds me of Giant Gonzalez aswell, and I don't mean that as a compliment. swarupb says on 29/Aug/10
Vegas says on 26/Aug/10
swarupb; i would love to see khali and indeed wight next to jackson andrews and eli cottonwood, khali doesn't have a monopoly on height/muscles in wwe anymore

Damn, that blonde dude looks huge but none of these new comers have the pure mass of a Khali or a Big Show. Vegas says on 26/Aug/10
clay; he is huge but unless i am right next to a person i wouldn't estimate, i have been fooled before thinking guys were taller from 10 feet away, mark henry recent example, but safe to say he is more than 6'4 :D
swarupb; i would love to see khali and indeed wight next to jackson andrews and eli cottonwood, khali doesn't have a monopoly on height/muscles in wwe anymore Click Here swarupb says on 25/Aug/10
Khali is 7.1 inch to be exact! He is around 2 inches above Big Show. Khali is the only human in current wrestling to be above 7 ft other than Silva. Rest are all exaggerated heights. In real world Khali is the only Giant to be a Bodybuilding Champion. This means combination of Height + muiscles which is very rare to find. In real world he is tons stronger than other Giants, but this is Show Business guys! Clay says on 22/Aug/10
We dont know if Shaq was in larger footwear, safe to say Khali is 7'1'' though. You were 5 feet from him Vegas - im guessing he comes off as a monsterous 7'1/7'2 looking in person? Vegas says on 22/Aug/10
a fake photoshop photo on wwe.com lol, i suppose the rest are photoshopped too Click Here mjn says on 21/Aug/10
The King is incorrect. I looked at the Bodybuilding Federation India web site and they have a whole section on Khali with many photos. He is listed at 7'1", not 6'11 1/2" Sal says on 21/Aug/10
Shaq does wear elevator sneakers so if that Khali photo is legit(it looks like a fake photoshop photo), then Khali is almost 7'3". Mandilo says on 13/Aug/10
wrong man. stick to reality to believe his more close to 7ft then 7ft plus was then accurate.. The King says on 10/Aug/10
If you read the info on the Bodybuilding federation India website properly. It has been stated that he is 6'11.5". So in the evening he may be around 7'0.5" considering that he wears 2" wrestling shoes. Well that clears tha fact that rey mysterio is hardly 5'2". John says on 4/Aug/10
Khali is 7'5" in the morning, 6'6"" / 6'7" in the evening Clay says on 2/Aug/10

strength is not really indicated by appearance, it's completely based on your Central Nervous System. That's why you have really huge "fat" guys out-benchpressing ripped up body builders by hundreds of pounds. Just because Khali is muscular and has broad shoulders, does not mean he necessarily will be stronger than tank abbot (although Khali is probably stronger than abbot anyway)
I find this funny. A guy who's 5'8 and 175 pounds is muscular and has broad shoulders. Khali has some of the biggest muscles in human history. Steven says on 23/Jul/10
Khali is 7'1" and easily 400 lbs, he looks only slightly taller than Big Show. By the way this Elizabeth person is not one lady to mess with, I should know, she's my cousin and we even went to high school together. I can attest to that. John says on 21/Jul/10
@Aditya, O'neal is known to wear his 2-3 inch elevator shoes wherever he goes. He's more of a 6-11.75 :) kaneisgod says on 16/Jul/10

at my peak, my benchpress was 200 lbs. at 6'0" I weighed 208 lbs. Nowadays i'm lucky to bench press up to 150. Clay says on 13/Jul/10
Khali has a pair of the broadest shoulders in human history, give your head a shake if you dont think for one rep on the bench press he could put up 600+ pounds.

^You really think this guy is stronger? Aditya says on 13/Jul/10
Here's his photo with shaquille o'neal . they look to be the same height ..
Click Here Mike says on 8/Jul/10
Dalip Singh or Kali i think is probably yea 7 ft 2 or 3 but either way he still has alot of weight on him 420 to maybe 445 pounds on him plus a whole
load of muscle Clay says on 1/Jul/10
For REPS Khali would be benching 450-500 pounds. MAXED OUT, lord knows how much. Like I said, Tank Abbott maxed out at 600 ibs its on youtube. JT says on 28/Jun/10
Khali and Festus, who looks around 6’6”: Click Here
650 to 700 lbs.?? Not even close. Khali would most likely be benching well under 600 lbs. for the simple reason that his arms are so long. The best bench pressers are going to be guys with barrel chests and really short arms (for a wrestler, think Bruno Sammartino) so they don’t have to push the weight up very far. Clay says on 27/Jun/10
Were they 400+ pounds of muscle and bone, Vegas? Hell - 6'0'' 290-310 pound Tank Abbot can max out at 600 pounds, im sure Khali's is between 650-700. Vegas says on 27/Jun/10
cenas top bench on video is 405, lol @ 700 for khali, the strongest men in the world were not putting up 700 in the 80s Sal says on 27/Jun/10
I would estimate Khali's max bench press between 650 and 700lbs.
The only reason it's not more is because he has really long arms.
Shaq's wingspan is 7'7" and his standing reach is 9'8" and Khali's must be equal if not more. China's max Benchpress was 375lbs and she was a 5'10" 210lbs woman at her biggest so a 440lbs bench press for Khali would be laughable. Clay says on 24/Jun/10
''RAW'' bench of 440 pounds (if thats even true...the guy could be BSing). Khali is gifted with GIGANTIC hands/wrists/forearms etc. the raw strength on the man is through the roof. dude12321 says on 23/Jun/10
How are people even doubting that he could bench press 440 pounds? For god sake, he is massive, that is just about his body weight. Benching BW is nothing, guys can do it within a few months of lifting weights. And here we have a guy who has been training for years, is a professional wrestler, is a former bodybuilding Mr. India who is built like a ****ing tank, he is surely putting up ALOT more than 440 pounds. JML says on 23/Jun/10
SoLLoS says on 23/Jun/10
Khali is a giant and anyone above 200 cm is one as well.
I got a friend which is 215 cm tall and everybody stares at him everywhere he goes.
I have the same problem, I myself am 215 cm tall. And weigh 132 kg or 290 lbs. SoLLoS says on 23/Jun/10

In the above indian bodybuilding site it is mentioned that khali is 7 feet 1 and could bench press raw more than 440 pounds, front press 265 pounds for 8 repetitions , 660 pounds raw squat, 265 pounds barbell curls and chin ups with his 375 pounds body weight, and could throw shotput for 17 meters.
He can surely do much more than a 440 bench. There were guys on my high school football team (myself included) that could do very close to that. Khali is HUGE so that's shocking to me. I would have expected at least 500lbs. Heck, I read that RVD's max is 415 on bench. On the other hand I'm suprised he can even bend his knees to be able to squat. He can barely walk down the isle in wrestling.
Kid, do you know how heavy a 440 pound bench press is and you're saying that you and your high school football team could bench that kind of weight? hahaha.. WOW, does your coach produce you guys in a lab? I love how people on here throw around these exaggerated claims thinking that there are no real knowledgeable people on here who can call them out on it. Well, I'm one of the people who have been working out for over 20 years and I can assure you, some of the toughest guys in a real gym (not HIGH SCHOOL KIDS) struggle with anything over 3 plates. If you went on a real bodybuilding site, you would be laughed off of it in all of 3 seconds.
You're the one who sounds like a fool. 18 years old is not really a kid if you develop early like I did and others do. And there are quite a few guys in High Schools that can bench 400lbs. I remember I was the strongest guy in my high school all 4 years when it came to benching and most other lifts. I could do 415lbs my senior year and I really didn't even push myself. If I was obsessed with weightlifting I could have gotten to 440, which is about where I'm at now; and with little trouble. There were other guys I knew from other schools back then that could do over 400lbs as well. You obviously don't go to that "tough" of a gym or guys wouldn't be struggling with over 3 plates. I knew a local bodybuilder who was about 5'7" 205lbs of solid muscle and he could rep 405 for 5 reps. Go ahead don't believe me and go back to your fruity little bodybuilding forums. Real men don't go on stupid crap like that anyway. Just know that I don't even barely excercise and I'm still stronger than you'll ever be. Believe it or not, kid. JML says on 4/Jun/10
Ottawa815 says on 29/May/10
dude I can bench press 300 lbs. and i'm 6'5" 250 lbs. Think that's impressive? big deal, I know someone in my class who can bench press close to 440 and he's my height, but weighs 275 lbs. He's been bench pressing since he was 8 and now he's 18.
That is impressive to me dude, I bench press 350 lbs. Used to bench press 400+ back when I weighed 355, my peak weight, now i'm down to 290. I'm around Khali's height, 7'1" morning, 7'0.25"-7'0.5" evening. Clay says on 2/Jun/10
The question is how much did Khali bench for 8-10 reps when he was st his strongest in powerlifting. Im sure maxed out for one rep the gigantic **** could put up over 600 pounds. Anonymous says on 1/Jun/10

Well it depends how close he really means. I know there were 2 kids at my high school(very big high school) that put up 350lbs and a couple more that put up 300. Abe says on 31/May/10

Abe - 5'9ish, was 183 on the scale today so a little over 180 really without clothes. You must be around my height at 178 ibs? Abe says on 26/May/10
i understand what you mean clay, i've also been working out for about 3 or 4 years, i weigh 178lbs, and 225 is still hard to bench, but effective to bench....i think a lot of people lie about how much they can really bench press.....oh and how tall are you??? Clay says on 25/May/10
Hell I've been weight lifting hard for 3 years now, and at 180+ pounds 225 is a tough bench for me. Anonymous says on 23/May/10
no listen the bench thing i went to prison weighing 270 in 2 year i lost to 183 in that time i was working out 5 to 6 days a week at 270 i benched 250lb i when i stop loseing weight started takeing the best protein after getting to a halfway house and taking all the right supplements i left out a year ago benching 405lbs my weight 218lbs thats almost double my weight in 3 1/2 years i added 155lbs to my bench i know a guy 5 9 175 benching 375lbs but back to the height silo sam was 7 7 according to some things i read on heights and wieghts of all time but i can remember what gonzales was Danimal says on 21/May/10

Khali really beefed up from the time he was in bodybuilding which was from the mid 90's to the late 90's, to his debut in WWE which was 2006. He was reportedly 370-385 ibs as a bodybuilder, he looked to be at least 400 pounds when he debuted for Vince. Don Rakka says on 9/May/10
Anyone knows wat is the average height in Punjab(birthplace of Dalip).My guess is 5'8" but I think it can get to 6 feet in 10 years time coz Punjabis has the tall genes.most of my Punjabi frenz in Singapore are 5'10" and above and one is almost 6'4". Praf says on 7/May/10

Clay: sure, I agree, Big Show is huge. But even if someone like johnpowers got into a fight with the Big Show and won, what would that really prove? That he can beat up an entertainer? It's not like he beat up Brock Lesnar or something. Clay says on 29/Apr/10
Well someone like the Big Show isnt just an entertainer. He is a freaksihly huge human being thats why people like ''JohnPowers'' would want to challeneg him. Same goes for Khali. Yeah they're just actors really, but thats doesnt change the fact they're gigantic human beings. And Big Show actually had some boxing training, so if you threw down with him you wouldnt exactly be fighting an un-co ordinated sloth. topdweeb says on 26/Apr/10
Clay: if what you mean by an "unconvincing fashion" is that Kimbo didn't just get dominated and knocked out, then I agree. But he was pretty convincingly beaten otherwise. He was completely spent and couldn't even defend himself anymore. While it's not the flashy dramatic finish that we hope to see, it's still pretty convincing.
But anyway, my whole point of starting this wasn't to knock Kimbo. johnpowers was going around saying he could kick the Big Show's ass just because he learned to fight in the Army. My point is that the hand to hand combat taught in the military is actually a joke, so unless he has training outside of that, then his skills are a joke. And besides, why pick on the Big Show? Big Show, like all pro-wrestlers, are just entertainers, not fighters. If he or anyone wants to prove themselves, then don't pick on an entertainer, pick on a real MMA fighter.
I'm not knocking the Big Show, but fighting is just not what he does. I don't know why everyone wants to challenge pro-wrestlers for. Clay says on 21/Apr/10
Im not dogging Nelson's ability, you completely missed that. Im saying Roy Nelson just steamrolled through everyone but not Kimbo, he beat him in very unconvincing fashion in the 2nd round. topdweeb says on 21/Apr/10
Clay: 1. I don't care if Nelson has a good performance or not, the fact is Kimbo couldn't handle him. In fact, that makes Kimbo even more sorry if he couldn't be a good who did "nothing" but sat on him and has a sorry performance himself. I don't even get your logic. That's like if you get your ass kicked by a girl and you try to justify it by saying something like, "Well she wasn't even a good fighter"... it would only make you look worse. And you dogging Nelson's ability and performance, but yet he still beat Kimbo, just makes Kimbo look even worse.
2. I'll give Kimbo credit in that he has improved but he's still a joke of a fighter. C'mon Clay, when he's in the UFC he'll be in his own weight class not fighting people who he outweigh 30lbs. By the way, for giving up such size, he still didn't have that impressive of a performance against Houston either.
By the way, I love Royce Gracie, but he truly was in the right place at the right time. Clay says on 20/Apr/10
1)Kimbo lost to the eventual winner of the reality show Roy Nelson, probably a top 10 heavytweight in the world. And he lost by getting sat on, even Dana White said it wasnt an impressive performance by Nelson (or a ''joke'' performance by Slice)
2)Uh, yeah he has beaten someone worthy. Houston Alexander is a decent Light heavyweight who has a win over keith Jardine on his belt (among others). Sure it was a catchwight fight so Kimbo being bigger had the advajtage, but he does have some skills. Im not saying he's the next Royce Gracie or anything though. blank says on 19/Apr/10
i agree with topdweed, all marine people are like that, but the truth is that martial artists are more tactical are their hits are harder....they have years of training to get to that point....my day said that when my uncle got out of the military he decided that he wanted to try to show off his supposed military skills, my dad thought they were just gonna mess around, but my uncle started going hard and he took down my dad because he wasn't expecting it (at that time my dad was a blue belt in taekwondo) so when my uncle started again he was punching and stuff, my dad was blocking every hit, then my dad dropped him and went for his head but stopped, and my uncle said that my dad was learning a good fighting technique..... ever since then my uncle hasn't tried anything like that again...hahaha.....now my dad doesn't teach taekwondo no more, when he stopped teaching he ended in his 3rd black belt....his master was highest 9th black belt.... topdweeb says on 18/Apr/10
kinggollum: yeah, I was in the military. I see this happen all the time: people join, they learn the hand to hand combat that the military teaches (which by the way is only a 2 week course) and suddenly, they get this "Bruce Lee" syndrome where they think they can kick anyone's ass. Truth is, the hand to hand combat taught in the military is a joke, and it's the reason why most military fighters who fight in MMA turn out to be a joke.
I did full contact kickboxing for 10 years before joining the military and wrestled for years (3 years jr. high and 3 years high school) and during my military years on, I have been practicing MMA. So my experience is beyond what the military taught me. And due to my prior martial arts experience before the military, I could already tell what we learned in the military was a joke.
Clay: Kimbo is a joke. You do realize that his fighters were fed to him in EliteXC, don't you? He has never beaten anyone worthy and he got KO'd in 11 seconds by a no-name and that person (Seth Petruzelli) is still a no-name. But EliteXC had so much invested on Kimbo becoming the next best MMA fighter, that his loss put the company out of business.
Then, Dana White says that Kimbo isn't worthy to fight in the UFC so he creates a special Ultimate Fighter series just for Kimbo. So what does Kimbo do... gets his ass beat in the very first fight and is supposed to be eliminated... but just because of his popularity, they find an excuse to keep him on the show... after all, he was the entire reason for this super heavy edition of the show so it'd be pointless if he was eliminated right from the get go.
Kimbo's street fights were glorified boxing matches. And he beat up people who had no clue how to fight at all (by the way, he did beat up an ex-Marine or something like that... :)).
To Kimbo's credit, what made him get as far as he did in his glorified boxing fights were he has what appear to be some rudimentary boxing kicks and he has tremendous punching power. I won't deny that.. but as far as MMA... he's gonna be eaten up alive unless he is constantly hand fed fighters that the promotions knows he will beat. Clay says on 16/Apr/10
I wouldnt call Kimbo an embaressment in MMA. His pro record is 4-2 afterall. kinggollum says on 16/Apr/10

johnpowers: if you think you're so badass, then try joining the UFC and taking on an MMA fighter. I was in the military too and some of my closest friends who I grew up with are in the Marines right now (and have been for the last 12 years). They aren't anything special and the hand to hand combat taught is generally a joke. So many Army rangers have entered MMA tournaments just to get themselves embarrassed... I remember Greg Stott... a former Army ranger who just went on and on about his military combat experience and then claimed to be undefeated in over 200 pit fits in the military... well he got KO'd in 19 seconds in the UFC.
Again, if you think you're so badass, don't try to pick on a showman/entertainer like a pro-wrestler, enter an MMA tournament where they are trained to fight, not entertain.

I've got one thing to tell ya Mr. Army guy, me, Steven Seagal and Dr. Laura have one thing in common, we know aikido. I dare you to try fight me, if you're up to the challenge, look for me in Camden, New Jersey. I will embarrass you as army tactics don't compare to karate.

Dalip Singhs is CLEARLY still 7'2" and was probably 7'2.75 or even 7'3" in his prime. That photo with Shaq is USELESS. Shaq wears like 3" thick soled sneakers. Look at this photo when Shaq and Bigshow were both wearing the same shoes. Put Khali and Shaq in those shoes and Khali's at least 1" taller than Shaq.

She's supposedly 5'6-7"ish, Check the part about 3 seconds in. She's barely above his armpit.

Frank: Dubon is right, that has been a claim that no one has been able to verify. Also, I don't get you sometimes.

In the photo with Khali & Shaq, it's not as simple to just draw a horizontal line above their heads to see who is taller; there are other factors.
Khali stands with a taller posture than Shaq here. Though Shaq's facial direction seems to be level (parellel with the ground), as usual he is standing with his neck angled forward. If you look at his side view, his head would be slightly in front of his body, making him stand shorter. As always, Khali's neck seems straight. If you look at his side view, his head is directly above his body. Khali's facial direction seems to be angled downwards but this may be an illusion caused by his large head & low chin.
Khali seems to be standing closer to the camera, & assuming the photographer isn't Yao Ming, this makes Khali seem taller. However, this also may be an illusion due to his large frame & large head, making him appear slightly in front of Shaq.
Then there's Khali's hair. It's difficult to tell where the top of Khali's head actually is. The hair may be giving him as little as 3mm or as much as 3/4 an inch extra height.
Shaq seems to have a slight edge in body height (if their heads were chopped off at the base of the neck). Shaq also seems to have the edge in eye-level. This, along with the longer neck, gives the quick-glance-illusion that Shaq is taller. Face-to-face, Shaq would be slightly looking down at Khali. But then again, this may be due to Khali possibly facing downward towards the camera.
The biggest question is footwear. Almost certainly, Shaq has the shoe advantage. If so, then in actuality their body heights may be level, their eyes level, Khali's chin still lower, but Khali taller overall. Danimal says on 17/Dec/09

I still maintain, Khali was listed on his bodybuilding site as 6'11. The most recent photo they had of him then looked like he was old enough to have stopped growing. Make of this fact (site has changed but this is what used to be there) what you will. It is in the interest of every billed giant to be at least 7 ft. I also think khalis height holds the key to the real heights of big show, shaq etc ie if he realy is 6'11" (im not saying he is but the old site clearly mentioned this as his height) then they are all shorter than what they are purported to be around here and elsewhere. Singh and shaq look roughly the same height to me. My guess is 6'11" but then maybe giants grow alittle (deposition on end plates?) after their growth plates have fused, i dont know. I just remember seeing a documentary in which Chris Greener (britains tallest man for years) stated he was still growing (in his 60s) - must be by minute amounts if atall surely.

I agree, Khali is taller than Shaq. I suspect Shaq has the footwear advantage over Khali's thin soled wrestling shoes (he is in his ring gear, after all) and Khali is still about 0.5" taller. Barefoot I think Khali has about an inch on Shaq. MeanMark says on 30/Oct/09
Whoa whoa fellas fellas Khali is much taller than shaq, because if you look closely at the cyber sunday photo Khali is not standing totally straight at where shaq is and Khali still looks a bit taller and imagine what he would look like if he was standng straight. Shaq looks taller because he is thinner, he has longer legs, bigger feet (bigger shoes size 23 in USA) and he has a smaller head which would make him look much taller SO KHALI IS TALLER AND THATS THE END But i'd give Big Show atleast 7 foot unlike Khali 7.2 at where shaq is 7.1.

I am 6ft 11 and when I saw Dalip in Washington, he looked about 2 inches taller than me, he was in casual footware, I think the minimum for him is 7ft 0.5 but more likely 7ft 1, he looks bigger, because he has a good posture and, ofcorse, has a HUGE frame. mike says on 30/Aug/09

Blitzilla says on 27/Jul/09
Hey guys, i jsut saw RAW when shaq was hosting it. Its official Shaq had big show by more than inch, and where SHAQ stood up his straightest, he had big show by almost 2 inches. It confirms, what i've said a while ago, that shaq has khali by 1 cm. Big Show= 212cm (6'11.5), Khali=215 cm (7'1) and Shaq=216 cm (7'1). Plus both of them were wearing dress shoes, so no advantages. and u have to remember, khali has hair, and both shaq and show are bald. That's y i'm saying shaq would have khali by 1 cm. pjk says on 27/Jul/09
The site as linked above by Rob is a different design to the one i saw a few years ago, some of the pictures are the same, some are more recent i think. It is possible it is the same site with updated figures and pictures dedicated to Dalip (now a star) but one thing is for sure, the site i saw had his height at under 7ft (at 6'11.5 or 6'11"- im unsure of the 1/2"). It would make sense to update it to this greater height whether he did grow or not as his billed wrestling height is over 7ft. Either way he is a bloody big lad. pjk says on 27/Jul/09
The site did exist and appeared to be dedicated to a small group of bodybuilders at a club, i read his height at 6'11.5" (it might not exist anymore but thats what was said on it, i cant be bothered to trawl net for it). The site had pictures of Dalip looking young - hard to say age, i would guess 26 or so, he certainly looked old enough for his growth plates to have fussed but it is possible he was younger and grew alittle more.
Clay - i am an old man not a kid, but yes i am often a fool. On heights i do not fool around, i simply disbelieve certain 'facts' as they often turn out to be untrue in the case of peoples stature and intelligent people rightly question facts. Isnt this why this site is so successful - because not many (if any) celebs exact heights are known. Even an admittance to a smaller height by the celeb themselves is no fact of height. People in general are notoriously bad at measuring heights. Without atleast accurate morning and evening measurements bare foot by someone/organisation that doesnt gain from bending the truth alittle (sometimes its just pride) all we have is conjecture. I really adore giants me but it bugs me that such tall people often dont get accurately measured or let people know their exact heights if they have been. Im all for the truth and so am happy to be proven wrong. Peace brother and may you dream of giants e he. Jeremy says on 26/Jul/09
some of you might not remember me, but I've been coming by this site for a year and a half now. Anyway, there is no comparison, Khali and Shaq are both 7'1". Neither man is any taller than the other. So let's just leave it at that. By the way Shaquille O'Neal will be on RAW tomorrow. He will have 1 1/2" on Big Show. hs2009 says on 25/Jul/09
How many more times do we have to go over this alleged site that listed Khali at 6'11.5"? It doesn't exist or somebody would have linked to it by now.

Its been said around here that Shaq said he is just under 7ft. That does look about right, and would make Dalip around the same height (or a smidging under) from the photo of them together.

Khali is bearly taller than Big Show and for that to be 2 inches he must have at least a 20 inch head. As for footwear, I doubt Big Show's footwear gives him much if any advantage over Khali's (certainly not an inch). CaptainSpaulding says on 6/Jul/09

Vegas and Big Show I see what you mean, but do you understand where I am coming from, Silva is taller and better wrestler plus can speak good english, where khali can't. When it comes to wrestling Big Show has all of them beat including a young Andre. Vegas says on 27/Jun/09

Btw the reason they still have Singh in the WWE is purely for marketing purposes. He's somewhat of a celebrity in his homeland of India, which is a huge potential market for the WWE. Plus Khali appears in Hollywood movies and gives the WWE some mainstream publicity.
this is correct, in india and pakistan pro-wrestling is still seen as real, look at the crowd khali attracts when he returns to his homeland, they threw a huge celebration for him in mumbai like he was a rock star or something, on the other hand nobody cares about silva in brazil or reis in america thats why neither of those two are employed by vince
on the subject of tenta, he claimed 6'7 for himself, 6'7 for hogan too, i would take stuff he says with a pinch of salt, tenta is struggling with 6'5 next to 7'1 ron reis in big shows video posted a few weeks back, i think silva is taller than wight by about 2 inches but i wouldn't use tentas claims as proof Big Show says on 26/Jun/09
kinggollum says on 25/Jun/09
go to wrestle crap Big Show (poster) and find Tenta shoot. Also if that were the case they would have never hired khali who Kurrgan and Silva are superior to in the ring.
I'll look for that John Tenta shoot. There's a John Tenta forum there and Tenta even posted there himself up until he sadly passed away a few years ago. One remark from him did state that The Oddities might have been cut by the WWE because Big Show allegedly didn't want any other giants in the WWE.

Either you are the one who is blind or delusional? Khali is doing his normal very erect stance that he does well, all the time. If Khali was an inch taller than Silva would be about 7'0, or big shows height and that is not the case because john tenta even stated that silva had show by two or three inches in 1999 and that is why after show came there they let go of silva and well kurrgan too.

Do you have any proof of that? The reason they let Silva go was because he was absolute crap in the ring (there's a reason they kept his singles matches to a minimum in the WWE). The Oddities failed to connect with the crowd and when they disbanded the Oddities, they really had no use for Giant Silva or Kurrgan anymore.

Khali is huge just not a good wrestler and like I said Silva is not only taller but a better wrestler. Also he can speak good english for WWE

You must be blind. Look at Khali's legs; they are just as, if not more bent, than Silvas. And tilting your head back is a way to make yourself appear TALLER. So your arguments are useless. Khali is clearly the taller of the two by an inch or so.
Either you are the one who is blind or delusional? Khali is doing his normal very erect stance that he does well, all the time. If Khali was an inch taller than Silva would be about 7'0, or big shows height and that is not the case because john tenta even stated that silva had show by two or three inches in 1999 and that is why after show came there they let go of silva and well kurrgan too.
BTW, next time keep the O in your name drk! Paul says on 24/Jun/09
drk, I recall seeing both of them on Youtube in a match. They appeared virtually the same height. Both 7'1 ? drk says on 24/Jun/09

Speaking of Giant Silva and his boots:

Those are probably close to 2 inches. The camera angle favors Silva big time with Akebono, though he is obviously much taller.
There was a ~ staredown between Silva and Singh though I’d need to see the lower bodies and footwear to help confirm who is taller. Click Here I still think Silva is at least one inch taller than Big Show. kinggollum says on 22/Jun/09

You wanna see an Andre and Khali match, Look up Silva vs Khali on youtube.
I never understood why WWE didn't just bring back Silva, he is taller than Khali and much better wrestler.
I haven't seen a single good staredown between Silva and Singh as of yet. What I have seen are Silva's gigantic boots (similar to the ones Kane use to wear). Singh wore Nike Airmax type sneakers (a 1.34" boost). Silva's boots must've give him an inch more in height. So if Silva is taller barefoot he must be noticably taller in those boots. Couldn't really see that in the videos I've seen of them both. They looked around the same height to me (but again we need a staredown to confirm that).
I've seen a video of them walking side by side in street cloths on the travel channel and Silva is clearly taller. I'll go to youtube and try and find it. Clay says on 22/Jun/09

A 6'11'' Khali results in a 5'11-6'0 Batista you half-wit.

If thats true the WWE roster is gonna get scared if Silva comes along. Khali at 6'11 was scary enough thank you. He beat up 6'7 Kane and Undertaker something severe and probably gave Big Show a bad stomach. kinggollum says on 19/Jun/09

both Big Show and Andre drank beer, which is why they had big bellies, Khali could've beaten Andre back in the day if Khali were a wrestler then.

No he's not seven-two. And I'm 5'9" ... says on 5/Jun/09
yeah like that..Big Show drinks beer and Khali protein drinks...
Andre and Big Show where two fat boys and non of them was a legit 7 feet man..
Andre 6'10.75 or maybe 6'11
Big Show was 6'11 Danimal says on 3/Jun/09

6'11 sounds sensible. Huge guy. No wonder he owned the Undertaker and most others. Big Show is 6'10 but less muscular. Khali drinks protein drinks. Big Show drinks beer. says on 3/Jun/09

At Backlash with the Great khali. This video is a little hard to get a hold of because it isnt on youtube.
I have to give show 6'11.5-7'0
btw I really think khali wears lifts because I was looking at some old info when he was a body builder and he was listed at 6'11 Danimal2009 says on 29/May/09
Big Show's height is 6 ft 11.5 in (212 cm)
peak height was 7 ft 0 in (213 cm)
Khali looks an inch and a half taller so yeah 7-1 is dead on. hs2009 says on 25/May/09
Thanks for that vid Clay! Khali looks HUGE there.
I remember Tony Jones as well from Beyond The Mat :D He was a good worker, just not muscular enough for WWE. Clay says on 24/May/09

Here's Khali debut in pro wrestling at some low end circuit. Pretty cool to see, this was just after his BB career he looks absolutely freakish here. Atoadaso says on 22/May/09
Khali edged Shaq in that picture slightly. Pics with higher contrast and a horizontal line showed it; somebody posted it. Khali looked to be in his wrestling gear as well so with his flat soled shoes Shaq probably also had the footwear advantage. He seems to often wear large footwear off and on the court. I believe Shaq is 7'1" barefoot, so Khali would be between 7'1" and 7'1". James S says on 20/May/09
Shaq IS 7ft 1 dead on, and Khali IS pretty much dead on, that makes Khali 7ft 0.5- 7ft 1, I think theres enough info to back him being 7ft 1, but as tall as he is, 7ft 2 is out of the question. topdweeb says on 19/May/09

these heights seem pretty accurate, except I would downgrade Big Show to 6'11.5" (212 cm). Khali is as 7'1" as Shaq. No argument there. Big Show would be 214-215 cm peak in his WCW days."

This is exactly how trolls get to you and why they stick around. You give them the EXACT attention they crave. Who cares about Jeremy, what he posts, or anything. He's a loser with absolutely no life and is probably a real life 40-year-old virgin. Just ignore him. I do and I hardly even know he exists. topdweeb says on 14/May/09

Have you seen Khali stand next to 7' 1 Shaq? I challenge you to show how Khali is .5" taller than him. Tony says on 13/May/09
Nice man. Have seen him once in non-wrestling attire. He has impecable posture - stands ridiculously straight. Easily around 7' or so mark. Danimal says on 10/May/09
ROB, is Jeremy now pretending to be Cyclops or is OLA back?????????
