Rob, how did you do when you sparred with him?
[Editor Rob: I'm still standing!]
Silent d says on 6/Feb/12
He looks taller than 5 foot 10 in the above photo. Rob was he wearing big shoes? 5 foot 10.
[Editor Rob: no bigger than my sneaker] RisingForce says on 2/Feb/12
Rob, how plausible do you find Mike's 5'10.5" claim? Obviously I know you find 5'10" flat to be more likely, but is 5'10.5" a possibility?
[Editor Rob: he measured himself 5ft 10, that's good enough for me.
10.5? I never saw that in person.] Adam says on 31/Jan/12
Considering Rob has hair and Tyson's head is shaved, I would say he looks 5'10. Plus Rob is not a flat 5'8. nice guy says on 30/Jan/12
lol guys what are you trying to pull here? - if he himself said he's 5'10 then we know one thing for certain: He is not even a single cm taller than that othewise he would claim 5'11 ....I give him 5'9.5 flat and 5'10.5 in normal shoes....5'11 in boots Derek d says on 28/Jan/12

Yeah pretty sure it's Larry Merchante. But I'm not too sure about him seeing Tyson being measured at 5'11. Marc L says on 28/Jan/12

Click Here same height as shawn michaels in this video who is usually listed at 5'11.5 and in this video Click Here no chance tyson is anywhere under 5'10, i'd say he's 5'10.5 and was 5'11 at his peak. gilipollas says on 3/Jan/12
Whos gonna discuss what iron mike claims? whatever he says... Produce says on 2/Jan/12
Commentators uses to say Tyson is listed 5.11 oder 5.11 and 1 half, but is closer to 5-10! Thats said in most cases. Derek d says on 1/Jan/12
Click Here
Check out the 50 second mark. The announcer who has interviewed him dozens of times admits that he is closer to 5'9 than 5'11.75 as recorded. I feel he's right in the middle at 5'10. Smallest could be 5'9.5 IMO. 178 says on 26/Dec/11
That's more than 2 inches between Tyson and Rob. We all know Rob is very modest with his flat 5' 8" listing too.
Tyson could well be 179 cm at night. Shaun says on 22/Dec/11
Yeah Martin, hardly your typical 5'10" is he LOL!! Martin says on 15/Dec/11
"A classic 5'10 guy"? He has the proportions of a monster. ChiasmataX says on 10/Dec/11
A classic 5'10 guy. He might not look a full 5'10 because of his posture and hairstyle. His proportion is right on and in particularly,his eye-level is right in the middle of Rob's forehead (which is what a 5'10 guy should have with a 5'8 guy). Physics Enemy says on 9/Dec/11

Sorry, Rob, but this photo doesn't prove much. At the Sheen Roast, he was standing with steve-0 and steve-0 (who you listed at 177) was about an inch taller than tyson (plus steve-o was wearing casuals and tyson was wearing suit shoes). If it were up to me, id give him a 5'9. jack says on 3/Dec/11
hey rob check this video out he at least 5 11 some poeple would say 6ft Click Here and it will inspire people who are under 6ft.....its only a 1 min video too copy the whole line rob and watch it Ejel Khan says on 3/Dec/11
Tyson's armpit is hunched over Rob's shoulder, this is compressing Rob. The effect is Tyson appearing 0.5" taller than he is. Rob is right with the 5'10" estimate. Tyson's posture and camera angles are giving him an unfair advantage. Mathew says on 3/Dec/11
5'10" for sure, 5'10.5" is possible too but he's definitely under 5'11". Produce says on 2/Dec/11
Vinn: But the foorwaer can be very important, especially by Stallone. Ive heard he waers very big shoes.. jack says on 2/Dec/11
i dont get it hey rob in all his videos of boxing it says he 5 11 and half did they just round up his height for boxing....or do u think rob that he shrunk from doing alot of cocaine....???????

i saw a picture of sylvetsr stallone and mike tyson on google uhm.... on some picture sylvester stallone looks taller only i cant see the footwear.... but slvester is def no 5'10... maybe 1.73... max 1.75 so i dont know how tall mike tyson would be i think shorter than 5'10...

Height Numbers of boxers are just a joke. Id guess they are averagely about 2 inches too high! Physics Enemy says on 28/Nov/11
Rob, I found this vid on youtube: Click Here
If you pause it at 38 secs or so, you'll see David Haye under that height chart; he comes up under 6 foot in trainers, shocking. What do you think of that?!
[Editor Rob: if it's a proper scale I'd be surprised.] dicksock says on 22/Nov/11
If I had to guess, I'd say he's 5'10.5". Did he have a footware advantage with you Rob?
[Editor Rob: very similar I believe] Physics Enemy says on 16/Nov/11
I don't think he's shrunk, he's still pretty young in the photo above with Rob. If Rob says he saw him at 5' 10", I trust him. The camera is obviously boosting him.
[Editor Rob: if someone says 5ft 10 and looked taller like say 5ft 10.5 or even 11 I'd put them taller.
for instance, Matt Dawson is known during his days as a '5ft 10' rugby player, but on seeing him, I didn't think he was just 5ft 10 but was in the 5ft 10.5 range so I'd list him at that.] Produce says on 15/Nov/11
Tyson says I WAS 179 CM.. Physics Enemy says on 15/Nov/11
Ok, fair enough. The pic must be 0.5" off then, as it looks like he'd be 5' 10.5" with straight posture. It's fooling us like challenge number 8.
[Editor Rob: the moment I saw where the photographer was standing I thought there was a chance it could add a fraction, I would be very very surprised if he measured 179 on the nose.] Physics Enemy says on 15/Nov/11
Rob Tyson claims 5' 10.5" in that interview toni linked. What do you think?
[Editor Rob: I've mentioned the quote, but I still don't think from what I saw of him that 179cm is a better guess than 178.] Physics Enemy says on 14/Nov/11
Tyson's posture is quite slack in this pic, he could definitely stand taller, he's giving up a bit in posture. If it's true he said he was 5' 10.5" in a recent interview, he should be listed at that.
I did say I reckon he was 5' 10.5" and just rounded it off to 5' 10", or dipped just shy of 5' 10.5" at night and just called it 5' 10". He would. Physics Enemy says on 14/Nov/11
Which interview John?! If he said that, then it's definitely true, because he looks exactly 5' 10.5" in this photo with Rob. Link anyone? toni says on 14/Nov/11
@ produce, yeah, on deadspin, where he talked about joe frazier. this is it.
Click Here Produce says on 14/Nov/11
John: Tyson said in an interview a few days ago that he was 5 10 1/2! John says on 13/Nov/11
5'10 now but definitely 5'11-5'11.5 peak. He was 5'11.5 in a video standing in front of a board with heights on and boxing shoes are less than an inch thick. Also look at him next to Frank Bruno when they were younger not enough of a difference to make him 5'10. Physics Enemy says on 13/Nov/11
I saw that vid Shaun. It depends on how you define strength. I think the best way to define it is who would win in a fight ... since that's what mattered throughout evolution. Else we may as well just talk about mental strength while we're at it! Shaun says on 12/Nov/11
Samuelsson even broke 6'10" 350 pound Nathan Jones arm in arm wrestling, that's how strong he is. Shaun says on 12/Nov/11
Nono, he said "He is the strongest man on planet." I am talking about literal brute strength. But Tyson against Samuelsson in a truck tire lifting competition and he'd be ten times stronger than Tyson. If we are talking about a fight Tyson would kick both their asses, first round. We seem to be confusing real brute strength here with fighting ability. Physics Enemy says on 10/Nov/11
I agree Tom, those guys would get destroyed by Tyson in his prime. They're just meatheads on gear. They don't have real strength like Tyson. Tom says on 10/Nov/11
You've got to be joking comparing them two to tyson, they're just meatheads, might have the strength physically to lift things, but not to go a round with tyson, well what tyson once was. Physics Enemy says on 8/Nov/11
Tyson would knock out those guys easily Shaun. Shaun says on 7/Nov/11

LOL, you definitely owned me Rob; in that challenge and now with Tyson. ;-) I did think Challenger 8 was over 6' 2" on the stadiometer. Physics Enemy says on 6/Nov/11
He's a bit over 5' 10". His absolute lowest is probably 178.2-3 cm and he just rounds it off to 5' 10". He's a solid 5' 10.25" early afternoon I think. He's got a fair bit of height on 5' 8.25" Rob.
[Editor Rob: remember challenger 8 can look half inch taller than he is ;)] LAN Jiao says on 31/Oct/11
"I measured myself as 5ft 10in....I'm a f****** dwarf!"
rob, tyson was laughing @ you as well. lol.. even 5'7 was not consider short enough for a men. i think under 5'6 is from where called short. ben stiller and dustin hoffman had the title.. they are short, but gods is fair to gave them the talen compare to most tall person.. tyson does look 5'10 produce says on 30/Oct/11
I think he was shocked because he thought tyson would be frar bigger, not because hes 5-10 ( or ab bit less). Physics Enemy says on 28/Oct/11
You're an idiot Marcus, how can you be shocked at a 5' 10" guy? Have you never seen one of those before? I say 5' 10", though I think he's slightly more. LG69 says on 26/Oct/11
I don't know if Mike had a footwear advantage or not, but he appears to be 2" -2 1/2" taller than Rob. Either way, Mike has always looked about 5'10". marcus says on 21/Oct/11
He walked by me one time before he won the title, I was shocked at how small he was. Jamie Foxx\'s Dad says on 8/Oct/11

garinho says on 21/Sep/11
My dad, who at his peak where 5'9.25, has picture with Tyson, and they seem to be of similar height, my Dad told me that he expected him to be taller, but what really struck him was how thick Tyson was, his neck, his arms, his hands sandeep oberoi says on 5/Oct/11

Tyson vs Glenn would be one hell of a flight. Greatest fight in history. lorne says on 2/Sep/11
Rob can Tyson give off an illusion of being shorter? My dad met him a few years ago, swore up and down he was no taller than I am, even with a footwear advantage he couldn't of been more than a fraction taller.I'm 5ft8.75-5ft9 evenings,so he said Tyson's MAX was 5ft9.25.I do believe he is close to 5'10, I'm just asking you because you met him if he can come off an inch less, since my father is pretty goo with height...
[Editor Rob: he measured himself 5ft 10, one of the few celebrities to come out and say it.
I know 5ft 10 men, my Dad was that height and Tyson is not taller in person than how my Dad was, but he is taller than how my Dad is now (just under 5ft 9).] bronson says on 31/Aug/11
Tyson is a badass and doesn't rely on 0.008 of an inch to make up his personality, so it makes sense that he would round down without caring, he's clearly 5'10" with Rob, e mustve been at least 5'11" at his peak Physics Enemy says on 28/Aug/11
Yes Rob, but that's because:
1) A taller woman emphasizes the difference so her height can get overrated
2) Jenny has a good hair advantage which the typical person won't consider
3) They're going off a rounded 5' 8" for Jenny rather than 5' 8.5" there
So it's easy for Big G to be estimated 5' 5" - 5' 5.5". Still very surprising though, I remember him telling us he thinks he could be 5' 9" instead. ;-) Legend says on 28/Aug/11
@Physics Enemy
Rob has already said this camera angle favors Tyson a little. Thats how I do the math. In my opinion, he's not 5'10 exactly. leonari says on 26/Aug/11
G haveing flat hair doesn't help either. But honestly the difference in the first pic btw. G and Jenny isn't enormous. He doesn't look 5'5"...
[Editor Rob: to people who aren't as interested in height as guys like us, they have when I show them the photo (which is part of a mockup for something else) have said 5ft 5, 5.5 commonly for the photo (based on all of these people seeing jenny being measured 5ft 8-8.25 range in the flesh, not the 5ft 8.5 sting height).] r3v001 says on 26/Aug/11
Rob were you scared at all giving Tyson that height on your site, I watched his bio and he seems like a nice guy but not if your rude in any way, I could be wrong did he seem to have a short fuse or is that media hype???
[Editor Rob: didn't have long enough to see him, but he interacted with people in that shoot from the time I saw him.
He was charging 75 quid ($120) for an autograph at the show...] Physics Enemy says on 25/Aug/11
If he's not quite 5' 10" Legend he shouldn't have over 2 inches on 5' 8.25" Rob, with fairly loose posture. You do the Maths.
[Editor Rob:
remember These 2 photos of Big G I took. I'm right between them. It's nearly ideal, except maybe I'm holding the camera at my eyelevel when I should have held it a few inches higher.
That's a measured 1.85 inch difference but it can appear a little bit more. Even with a nearly perfect setup you can still have someone appear taller/shorter. I still believe Tyson appears a fraction taller in that photo than he looks in real life.
As an aside, I've shown that Jenny/G photo to people who don't know about the site as a part of describing a future project I'm going to work on next year. These people have seen Jenny measured in the 5ft 8-8.25 range (although were unaware she was 5ft 8.5 that moment in time) and most of them think the guy (Big G) in the photo looks 5ft 5 or 5ft 5.5.] Legend says on 24/Aug/11
He's not quite 5'10 Vegas says on 24/Aug/11
Physics Enemy says on 22/Aug/11
Yes Sean he's brutally honest, which is why he may well be 5' 10.5" and just round down. OR he's a STRONG 5' 10" last thing at night e.g.) 178.3 cm.

Or he may have mismeasured a touch as he was measuring himself. All of these are possibilities. If he said 5' 10.5" he'd be listed as that; he looks it. Shaun says on 22/Aug/11
He lives in a heavyweight boxing world where the majority are between 6'2" and 6'7". He is short for a heavyweight boxer. Shaun says on 22/Aug/11
5'10" flat though if that's what he claims. He would know his own height and seems to be brutally honest about it. Shaun says on 22/Aug/11
Looks over 5'10" flat, 5'10.5" perhaps. Physics Enemy says on 21/Aug/11
If Tyson is under 5' 10" then Rob is 5' 7.25". Because that's what I see here, given Tyson has a very slight posture disadvantage compared to Rob.
Rob at 5' 8.25" lunchtime + 2-2.5" = Tyson's Height. That's 179 cm range easy. Legend says on 20/Aug/11
@Physics Enemy
Why are you dealing in absolutes? Tyson could very well still be under 5'10 which is what I think. Rob even said the angle favors Tyson in this photo. Physics Enemy says on 19/Aug/11
But Danimal, why are you taking that as Gospel? It could be a casual measurement last thing at night. It could be 5' 10" and change rounded off. Not everyone in the world is a height fanatic. If he cared much he'd just say 5' 11" like his usual listing. On Wiki it says 5' 10.5".
He's definitely over 5' 10". Rob's well over 5' 8" at lunchtime and Tyson has more than 2 inches on him with good posture. It's not just 5' 10". Legend says on 17/Aug/11
We can't see their shoes. However, I will stick by my 5'9.25 or 5'9.5 max estimate of Tyson. Danimal says on 17/Aug/11
Physics Enemy says on 12/Aug/11
Danimal - He's learning downwards slightly due to his hand on Rob's shoulder, and he's still got at least 2 inches on a 5' 8.25" Rob. He's no less than 5' 10.5". He's really a fair 179 cm. He'd probably hit 178 cm last thing at night with casual posture.
Why are you giving him .5" more than he gives for himself? He has stated his height at 5'10" TWICE recently. He's not over that. issuetall says on 16/Aug/11
@Matt says on 2/Aug/11
@aaron,
If someone said that 5'10 is short in most west countries, it would only happen in high shcools or universities in there.But considering the whole adult,5'10 is not short, also not tall. Kostas says on 15/Aug/11
If he is a dwarf, then I am a...wait, what is even smaller than a dwarf? Physics Enemy says on 13/Aug/11
On Tyson's Wikipedia page it states he's 5' 10.5" in the Exhibitions section of the page. Check it out folks. That certainly makes a lot of sense to me. Danimal says on 13/Aug/11
Rob, do you think it's possible that Mike Tyson is as low as 5'9.5" barefoot?
[Editor Rob:
I think 5ft 10 is reasonable, but the photographer's position was aiding Tyson's height.
] Physics Enemy says on 12/Aug/11
Danimal - He's learning downwards slightly due to his hand on Rob's shoulder, and he's still got at least 2 inches on a 5' 8.25" Rob. He's no less than 5' 10.5". He's really a fair 179 cm. He'd probably hit 178 cm last thing at night with casual posture. Physics Enemy says on 12/Aug/11
I know this sounds a little delusional but he could be near 5' 11". In this pic he's actually leaning downwards slightly; his hand on Rob's shoulder rotates him downward a little.
Given Rob is 5' 8.25", I'd say Mike has 2.5" on Rob if standing tall. So 5' 10.75" and a strong 5' 11" in the morning. If people are being honest, we'd expect a '5' 10" Tyson' to look shorter than he does here.
He deserves 179 cm I think. He's either mismeasured slightly or taken a casual measurement late at night and rounded it off. Take it to the bank! 5\'8.76786 says on 11/Aug/11
Rob, he does look an exactly 5'10 person next to you, what do you think?
If something he might even look a fraction taller, tho eyelevel-wise, he's 5'10 on the spot.
[Editor Rob: the photographer took the photo in a way that it made Tyson look taller than he looks in person...] Legend says on 10/Aug/11

@aaron, the average heights of men in the countries you listed is not 6'0" except in the Netherland and Dinaric Alps. They all have averages of 5'.11.5" or lower, which is only one inch above American young men. Average in the young male height department is above average overall (compared to girls). 5'10 isn't short. How tall are you? Dominic says on 26/Jul/11
Will says on 25/Jul/11
Mike Tyson is 5'9 3/4". A weak 5'10" IMO.
Lol @ arguing a quarter inch. Honestly, if he was 5'9 and 3/4 I would just call him 5'10 anyway as I would with anyone else. Will says on 25/Jul/11
Mike Tyson is 5'9 3/4". A weak 5'10" IMO. marshall says on 23/Jul/11
thats great thanks rob, i was just wondering as i am 5feet10.5 in the morning and gradually throughout the day i find it hard to hit 5.10. just wondering if tyson was nearly 5.11inches in the morning.
[Editor Rob: shrinking 0.7-0.8 inches is pretty typical, 1 inch is possible even at 5ft 10 or 11] marshall says on 22/Jul/11
so does this mean that we say the height we stand at in the morning, during the day, or at night? rob?
[Editor Rob: I wouldn't go with morning heights, although there's a few celebrities who have mentioned about being 'such and such' in the morning - in those cases I have listed them 0.5 or0.75 inch less than what they said they were in the morning.] c-mo says on 21/Jul/11
Rob's 5' 8.25". Tyson looks a weak 5' 11" here. I get the feeling he might have done a casual late-night measurement and even rounded down. I believe he could hit 179-180 in the daytime. He says David Haye is '6' 1"' so you can see he's not the type to care about 'tallness'.
I think he's 178-178.5 cm last thing at night after a hard day. So 179cm.

Rob - Are you sure that you're not slouching in the pic above? I mean, Tyson's arm is around your shoulder, and you're emulating a boxing stance...maybe you're losing a little height because of it. If so, then Tyson could easily be more 5'9" than 5'10".
I ask because Mr. R is pretty convinced that he's 5'9", and he seems to be one of the more reliable sources here.
[Editor Rob: in a fair amount of shots on the table he looked taller than he actually was, that doesn't mean he is ;)] Clay says on 17/Jul/11

Dr.Drea, you're a nugget, of the highest order. Danimal says on 12/Jul/11

He looks 5'10 in that pic, but i have seen some pictures where he looks shorter
Rob do you think Tyson wears shoe lifts?
[Editor Rob: I seen many of Tyson's photos from this day, in the photos he could appear taller than he actually looked - which really to me was not over 5ft 10.
but as I said in the past, maybe he got more position benefit in the photoshoot (in relation to where the photographer stands and shooting in portrait can sometimes elongate things a fraction).] Clay says on 9/Jul/11

Could be 5'10.25 maybe? Rob is a hair over 5'8 and Tyson looks 2 inches taller.
Also you'll see guys at 5'10 feel they are short where its really just average. Its like anyone under 5'11 tends to claim they are short LOL Alex says on 9/Jul/11
Has 2 inches on Rob. Hes a SOLID 5'10 guy. Rampage(-_-_-)Clover says on 6/Jul/11
Get a glimpse of the shoes we was wearing rob? LG69 says on 5/Jul/11
I don't know what kind of shoes Tyson is wearing with Rob, but if all things are equal, Mike is 5'10". George Fergadiotis says on 5/Jul/11
Rob don't you think that in his prime he was around 5ft 11?
[Editor Rob: I'm not sure he really would have lost an inch in height by early 40's.] Produce says on 3/Jul/11

I think in thsi video tyson looks arround 5-10! Legend says on 2/Jul/11
@Shaun
Do you still think photos are 100 percent proof? There is something funny about this picture. Shaun says on 27/Jun/11
Legend says on 13/Jun/11
I think he's 5'9 more than 5'10.
Seriously if you can look at the above photo and see less than an inch difference you need your eyes tested. He is CLEARLY not under 5'10" and could pass for 5'10.5" easily. Dwignut says on 24/Jun/11
He's every bit of 5"10 in my opinion Clay says on 21/Jun/11
Dave says on 13/Jun/11
Why does he think that he is short? I don't think that 5ft 10in is short at all. It's very average size for a man.
Because his peers in heavyweight boxing are absolute monsters usually? 5'10 isn't short in general but it sure as hell is in the heavyweight fight game. Legend says on 21/Jun/11
I used to say I was 5'10 morning before I knew how to measure myself. I'm 5'10.25 or a little more now and 5'10 at night. I already cleared that up in the General Height section. However this is about Mike Tyson, not me. I think he's 5'9.5 in reality. The Horse of FUNK says on 19/Jun/11
You feeling okay there, Jimrique? Ka says on 19/Jun/11
Mike has a solid 2 in w/ Rob, after subtracting the slight angle advantage. He does deserves the 5'10 listing. That is why even a slight downgrade such as 5'9.75 is impossible, let alone 5'9 range. Even if you don't like the guy, the solid fact remains Viper says on 18/Jun/11
I don't see this incredible transformation that people say occurred in Tyson before and after his "prime." Furthermore it seems his fans conveniently place the end of his prime right before his first loss. Bottom line Tyson was the same man at 19 he was at 37. He was a classic front runner bully that wilted into a desperate one punch fighter when someone hit him right back and showed no fear. He demonstrated that in his prime vs Douglas and as an older man vs Lewis. Voiceless dental fricative says on 18/Jun/11
Legend, haven't you said a number of times that you're only 5'10 in the MORNING, which is against the height measuring protocols of this site. I seem to remember you saying about a month or two ago that you were only just above 5'9 at the end of the day. Legend says on 18/Jun/11
Ka says on 16/Jun/11
Then Rob is 5'7 and 3/4 at best Legend. Man how is it so hard to see Mike at 5'10? Envy?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
No it doesn't mean Rob is not his height from a silly picture, nice try though. And I am 5'10 myself, why would I have envy? Lenad is sexy says on 17/Jun/11
looks 2-2.5 inches taller than Rob Ka says on 16/Jun/11
Then Rob is 5'7 and 3/4 at best Legend. Man how is it so hard to see Mike at 5'10? Envy? Legend says on 15/Jun/11
5'9.75 is actually the best guess... Legend says on 13/Jun/11
I think he's 5'9 more than 5'10. Legend says on 13/Jun/11
James says on 10/Jun/11
No he didn't he looked a little more than 5'10 with his big footware in that movie. He's borderline tall.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
No in the Hangover Part 2 he looked 5'9. He looked shorter than he did in the first one. rob89 says on 13/Jun/11
Now here's a guy listed at 5'10 who actually LOOKS a solid 5'10 with Rob! That's pretty rare. There's no significant differences in posture or shoe thickness either. THIS is how a legit 5'10 person should look next to someone 5'8, assuming everything else is equal. Great listing, certainly the shortest he could possibly be is 177 cm or just shy of 5'10. Rampage(-_-_-)Clover says on 13/Jun/11
5ft10.25 Rob? Dave says on 13/Jun/11
Why does he think that he is short? I don't think that 5ft 10in is short at all. It's very average size for a man. hello says on 12/Jun/11
his 5'11 measurement was with shoes..common practice in boxing prior to the 2000s. Apparently it was because you would be fighting with your shoes on so your height measurement was done with shoes. James says on 10/Jun/11
Legend says on 3/Jun/11
He looked 5'9 in the Hangover 2.
No he didn't he looked a little more than 5'10 with his big footware in that movie. He's borderline tall. d wade says on 9/Jun/11
when rob is close to 5,9 in morning than tyson is 5,11 or very close to it out of bed. Clay says on 7/Jun/11
Legend says on 3/Jun/11

So you're admitting you cant tell height, way to go. Rampage(-_-_-)Clover says on 6/Jun/11

[Editor Rob: you are right, I'm 5ft 8 and 1/8th :) Or Almost 5ft 9 out of bed ;)]
