His morning height is 5'9, but day time height 5'8.5
KC - I've seen this "morning height" claim on this site alot and I think its absurd. People on this site love to downgrade everybody's height. There is just as much chance that his 5'9" measurement was taken midday or later!!! Why do people on this site assume everyone jumps out of bed and runs to measure themselves?? Not to mention all the people who post on this site with laser accurate eyes that claim to be able to eyeball .5" - 1" differences. Unless you whip out a tape measure and ask the person to take off their shoes, you're guesstimating based on peripheral evidence "I looked him in the eye..." "my 6ft brother met him..." We all know people lie about their height but don't pretend like you have ironclad proof or some exact formula other than taking the measurement yourself. runt says on 16/Sep/09
never saw him listed above 5-10 Big T says on 3/Sep/09
Interestingly SRL is pretty much the same height as David Tua, who has received the same sort of "almost 6 foot and just looks shorter" listings as Tyson. Anonymous says on 2/Sep/09

They inflated Tyson's height by 1.5 inches too. Brad says on 26/Aug/09
"They" can sell more tickets with the inflate, they did it with SRL. Ace says on 26/Aug/09
Wasn't Duran always listed at 5`7? I was never aware they attempted to inflate his height. Brad says on 25/Aug/09
His measurement was like Oscar's at 5' 10": a joke. They had Duran at laughable height through the years. Digbads says on 24/Aug/09
What a laugh! My wife and I spent a day "tending" Sugar Ray at an Electronics Convention 20 yrs ago. He was so "cute" and little that my wife said we should adopt him. She is 5'8" and Sugar Ray was much smaller than my wife. I would estimate him at 5'6" at most. Antonio says on 24/Aug/09
I met Leonard in about 8 or 9 years ago. I was 5-8.5 at the time, and we looked eye to eye and identical in height. So, Rob I think you are close.
Just for the record ... he was a most gracious man. He stood on the set for a long time signing gloves and t-shirts. I watched him closely, and never noticed a second of displeasure! Austrian says on 24/Aug/09
ehm lol.. if he was a professional boxer shouldnt his height have been measured and recorded anyway? Brad says on 24/Aug/09
I remember that 5' 11" figure and laughed. He's more likely 5' 8.5". Ace says on 23/Aug/09
Really, i always thought he was around 5`10-5`11. Brave of him to admit. Mathew says on 23/Aug/09
5'11" is a tough claim to pull off at 5'9" I think, just because so many people are in the area of those two heights. Props to him for trying, and than admitting it though :) |
