Big show is literally being a big show off in the above photo. I'd still much rather be five six than 7 foot"

They're literally at a photo op to promote their match. They're holding their fists up for that purpose. They have nothing but good things to say about each other. Big Show insisted Mayweather actually break his nose - which he indeed did for real - to promote their upcoming match. You have some issues.

Wasn't he 171cm? When has he downgraded and for reasons?

tito must be 6ft 2 if Floyd is 5ft 7
Johno said on 20/May/22
He would be minimum 1-inch shorter than Rob, around ~ 1.5-inches.
Eyeballer said on 7/Apr/22
Met Floyd ages ago in Atlantic City, right after his fight with Gatti. I'm exactly 5'6.5" and Floyd was maybe half an inch taller then (when he was in his late 20's and not yet wearing lifts). I doubt Floyd now is much taller than 5'7" if not shorter.

Early in Floyd’s boxing career his wingspan was 75’, later on 72’. How can a 5’7” guy have such long arm's. What do you think?
I think comer mcgregor had his reach measured at 72 but it looked like a bad measurement and would argue that both Connor and Floyd have a wingspan between 71 and 72.
Okidoki said on 3/Feb/22
Btw Rob, can i ask you, i guess you're listing for Floyd is largely because of the faceoff between him and Ricky Hatton who you have met. You said he didn't look more than an inch on Hatton. But if you look at the video "Ricky Hatton vs Floyd Mayweather weigh-in" and pause the video at 3:55, it could seem like a 1.5-2 inch difference from that angle. Is Floyd slightly busting a gut at 3:54-3:55 then or is the angle that make it seem like more than an inch?

Because at 3:57-4:01 in the video, he seems to lower a bit down his eyelevel so it looks more like an inch. I guess you couldn't get any more proof than this since you have met Ricky.
Editor Rob
I think Floyd struggled overall to look over 5ft 7 with Ricky. His head really is under average by a cm or so.
Okidoki said on 2/Feb/22
@Rob Btw Rob, wasn't it a bit weird how much taller Floyd looked in that faceoff between him and Paquiao? Did Floyd really had that much of a footwear advantage over him there? I can't see Manny under 5'5 atleast, he could be 5'5.25 maybe.
Editor Rob
It could make Manny look barely 5ft 5
Okidoki said on 2/Feb/22
@Rob Is 5'7.25 still arguable for you or is 5'7 the highest? I personally wouldn't go as low as 5'6.5 because he really definitely looks a bit taller than someone like Messi.
Editor Rob
I'm still ok with the current mark. 5ft 8 always looked too high, but just over 5ft 7 would be an upper limit to what I think his range might be.
Kevin 1 said on 21/Jan/22
His lifts clearly work on all of you. Hes not breaking 5'7 without lifts. They're often super obvious too
CloseTheDeal said on 26/Dec/21
@duhon

mcgregor wasn't barefoot there. he had on loafers
CloseTheDeal said on 26/Dec/21
If Canelo is 5'7.5 then mayweather has to be a bit taller than this. He looked taller than Canelo both inside and outside of the ring. He also didn't look too much shorter than Conor McGregor and looks essentially the same height standing next to 5'7.5/5'7.75 Nate robinson. I give him just shy of 5'8
Have a great day said on 29/Nov/21
At 19 Floyd was billed at 5’7” 1/2 I believe by his 30s he probably shrunk about 1/4” and now he probably stands at 5’7” even.

Hi Rob,

Here is a picture of Floyd with Rich Paul (Adele's rumoured boyfriend) Click Here

Is Floyd wearing some sort of lifts/elevated footwear here?
ChaosControl 189.3cm said on 27/Sep/21
If he’s barely 5’7 I’m starting to doubt even 6’1 for Tito Ortiz, he’s a bit further from the camera and his legs are wider so maybe he’s 6’1.5
Canson said on 25/Sep/21
@Viper: he hasn’t lost anything. He’s always been a weak 5’7
viper said on 23/Sep/21
Better chance I win the Powerball

He's only 44, not 64

Floyd seems being as tall as Canelo who is listed as a 171.5cm guy and 175cm in many sites. Maybe he deserves an upgrade
Has said on 22/Sep/21
Is it possible that he has lost height since his earlier days since he's 44 now? If so, how much would you say he may have lost?
ChaosControl 189.3cm said on 22/Sep/21
He’s only making Tito Ortiz look around 6’1

How tall would you say Rolando Romero is. He claims 5'7/5'8
Editor Rob
hard to see him above 5ft 6 there, accounting for maybe a bit worse posture than Floyd
Tall In The Saddle said on 28/Jun/21
I personally wouldn't go as low as 5'4" to 5'5" but IMO he struggles with 5'7". More like 5'6 1/2" tops if that. He lifts on occasion but hypocritically calls Pacquiao out for lifting. Even for his weight division, Floyd is a very small, finely boned guy. LOL, even McGregor correctly noted Floyd's relatively small head. Love 'em or hate 'em, both McGregor and Fury have been great assets to their respective combat sports.
ALONZO PICHARDO said on 25/Jun/21
no way he is like 5'4"- 5'5 look at him at the face off with McGregor who is 5'8" he is a good 3-4 inches shorter than hm.. in the following press conference floyd would clearly wear lifts so much so that Mcgregor called him out on him ..... Mcgregor "Proper Lifts You're Wearing "

5 foot 7 in the morning shrinks down to 5’6.5 or even as low as 5’6
Ice (Original) said on 8/May/21
I never bought 5'7" for Floyd. He may get there in the morning, but it's not an afternoon height. At night, he's probably 5'6.5". I give him 5'6.75" for afternoon. Also, I wouldn't be surprised if he's lost a fraction. Not necessarily due to age, but his sport.
Joseph Hickey said on 4/May/21
He looked very close in height to Canelo
nz said on 16/Apr/21
@Leesheff85. Maybe tank is taller than 5'3, but he's def shorter than his listed height.
Good discussion here. I think its standard for most boxers to list their height on boxrec in shoes.

Editor Rob
gervonta claimed all sorts of heights.

He started out saying he was 5ft 5, then 5ft 7, 7.5, 8, 8.5 9, 9.5

Nz gervonta is listed 5ft5 1/2 and doesn't look under it. 3.5 inches shorter than 5ft 9 hugo ruiz
nz said on 12/Apr/21
Can we have some more pages for some of the newer boxers?
For example, I think we have enough from:
Vergil Ortiz - 5'9
Jaron ennis - 5'8.5
Ryan Garcia -5'8.5
Devin Haney - 5'7
Teofimo Lopez - 5'8
Gervonta Davis - 5'3
Shakur Stevenson - 5'7

Hi Rob, How tall do you think current king errol spence and up and coming ww prospects ennis and ortiz are.

I have errol spence as a 5'9. Kell brook looked nearly the same height as him in the ring if not a bit taller despite the height difference in face off (shoes)
Click Here
In this face off brook looked taller despite spence wearing shoes that looked thicker

As for the prospects, I have ortiz as 5'9.5-5'10. I don't have him taller than de la hoya by more than half an inch although 5'10 is certainly possible for him.

I think ennis is 5'8-5'9 just by looking at his proportions. He looked more than 3 inches shorter than chris van heerden who has been listed anywhere from 5'9 to 5'11.(looked shorter than spence compared to heerden)
Elvin Rusu said on 11/Feb/21
Can u take a look at Miguel Cotto height?
He is listed at 5"7 but he is at least 1 cm taller than Mayweather who claims to be 5"8.

2pacalypse wow said on 25/Jan/21
@nz, Campbell looks a sold inch taller than Garcia in that video in their stare off and Garcia is in bigger footwear? I'm surprised if he claims 5'9" cause he looks tall with long legs there. I would've guessed 5'11" range. Garcia may well be adding 3 inches to his height then.
2pacalypse wow said on 25/Jan/21
@BrewBMW, Garcia is 5'8"-5'8.5" at most. Looked a solid 2 inches shorter than 5'10.5" Jake Paul. 5'8.5" is a reasonable listing to start him off, while we have more time to assess him.
Jacobb nash said on 17/Jan/21
Any idea height for new boxer Gervonta Davis..? Here pict with Lil uzi, Click Here please watch whole side
Editor Rob
he can look around similar range, even in one of those photos shorter than uzi.

He claimed "Yo bro I’m 5’7 and 5’8/5’9 on a good day"

in 2013 said he was 5ft 5.
BrewBMW said on 15/Jan/21
@nz: I agree. Garcia could be in the 5'8.5 range. I do think Campbell may be slightly above 5'9 and has rounded down.
Jack foley said on 3/Jan/21
I’d say 5’7-5’7.5. There’s no way he’s under 5’7

@nathan @rob

Looking at Ryan's faceoff with luke campbell he looks like he is 5'8-5'8.5

While he wears elevator shoes, he is only slightly if at all taller than luke campbell who is wearing regular tennis shoes. Luke claims 5'9

Any Idea on boxer Ryan Garcia?

He is listed 5'10", I am sure he claimed to be 5'11" himself but he clearly isn't that tall, I would have guessed he might be somewhere close to 5'9" but not sure.
Editor Rob
claim 5ft 11, but it's really hard to see him much over 5ft 9 range.

Joe Gord said on 28/May/20
He was wearing thicker boots than mine when I saw him up close, but unless he was wearing lifts, he's still definitely more than 5'7". I would say 5'8" is closer than this listing.

Truthsayer said on 30/Sep/19
Sorry he is around 168cm at night......compare with Hatten and there is barely a difference. BTW isn't it weird he wore strange socks while Hatten was barefoot in the square up. We all know now how those socks can contain built-in lifts and Mayweather is notorious for lift-wearing.

@KH: exactly. They get upset about it yet when someone thinks they’re taller than listed they don’t say a thing. Likely they get excited at the possibility that they may be taller
KH said on 16/Feb/19
I don't know why some people get upset when you tell them there heroes are short. He is a great boxer it doesn't really matter either way. But if you look at his compared to Manny and Connor 5'7 would be the absolute most you could give him.
Boxe said on 15/Feb/19
So BoxRec and all the boxing federation are lying saying he is 173!? You guys are serious?
Editor Rob
Please look at Hatton on BoxRec, and look at his page on here. Hatton himself claims 5ft 6, never 5ft 7.5 like boxrec...and he was at least a couple of inches smaller than myself.
Johno said on 10/Feb/19
Well Kevin Hart recently said to him that he is only 5'6.5 as the ring announcer said in his last fight, Mayweather inturn, did not refute it.
Canson said on 28/Jan/19
I’ve been saying 5’6.5ish for years. He measured next to pacquiao and was only an inch taller from what I remember
Wayge angles said on 26/Jan/19
I’m 5’9 in the morning, and about 5’8.75 when I go to bed I think. I saw Floyd Mayweather in person at an event a few years back. Obviously I wasn’t right up in the guy’s face, I was behind stands with the crowd, but even in his ridiculous lifts, I was at least an inch taller than him. So if he claims 5’8 in those shoes, which look to add either 2-3 inches, I’d say he’s 5’6 at best, maybe even shorter. Even if he was 5’7, there’s no way he’d look that short compared to me.

if you are 5,7 next to a 5,11 guy you wouldn't be over his eye's, you would be an inch under his eye's, this is why mayweather is 5,8 if 50 cent is 5,11.
Canson said on 22/May/18
I think he would fall near Rob’s definition of weak. 5’6.5 up to 5’6 5/8 perhaps
PhysicsEnemy said on 15/May/18
Listed 168 cm at '96 Olympics, I assume measured; implies 167 cm low. He looks it; 0.5" on 5' 5.5" Hatton, 1" on 5'5" Pac, dwarfed by 5' 10" Antonio Brown.

He was listed 168 cm in the '96 Olympics, the vid has been linked multiple times. He seems 5' 6" tho from all evidence.

I have a hunch he and Hatton are 5' 5.5". Looks 0.5" taller but Hatton's posture is less upright i.e) legs angled with torso.

5'7 for Mayweather
MCEe said on 4/Jan/18
Current p4p #1 boxer Terence Crawford is 5'8". In a recent photo of him and Floyd at a basketball game, he looks a good 2-3 inches taller than Money. I've met Floyd a few years back in 2014 right before his second stanza with Marcos Maidana in Vegas. I'm about 6ft and I towered over him at the gym. I had like 7 inches on him. He's only 5'5". 5'6" on a good day out of bed.

I don’t think he’s just a flat 5’6” but somewhere around 5’6.5-.5’7 like 5’6.75 prob
Kevin said on 5/Dec/17
Miguel Cotto looked as tall as Mayweather in their face off(BOTH BAREFOOT) but Cotto edged him out maybe by a cm at most. I think Floyd true height is 169.5cm or 1.70. 5'7" at the dot.

rob how much you estimate ryan sheckler here in floyd with shoes

maby is time to open his page he is one of the most famous skaters in the world he even had a series in mtv called life of ryan

tell me your idea of his height here with shoes

open his page as he is the only celebritie that have no page

in most cases ryan does not use lifts as he is a skater but i serious think floyd use them i have floyd at a strong 168cm barefoot at night so maby ryan is a weak 168cm barefoot tell me your opinion tell me his height with shoes once wake up

hugs watch the picture
PhysicsEnemy said on 10/Nov/17
Looked 0.5" taller than 5' 5.5" Ricky Hatton at their weigh in (barefoot) in late 2007. Also seen him look noteably shorter than guys in the 5' 7.5 - 5' 8" range. He does wear chunky footwear and/or small lifts sometimes, can often look small even in his footwear.

Think he's 5' 6", gets away with more due to footwear and boxer height inflation.
Canson said on 21/Oct/17
@Rob: doesn’t look 5’7” with 50cent or Macgregor or Pacquiao. Looks more 5’6.5. Maybe 5’6.75 is a bit more realistic than 5’7”

boxer1992 said on 9/Oct/17
@Rob in your response to @ArjunaKorale

Rob, the reason why weight measurements are taken very seriously but height is just estimated in combat sports is because height is really not that important in fighting. The more important measurement is reach, which does not always come with height. Being heavier than someone is a much much bigger advantage in combat sports (especially mma or wrestling) because it doesn't require any skill to make use of it.Hence why in combat sports there is always weight classes but never a height class!
dt said on 15/Sep/17
NM, Floyd isn't wearing regular shoes they got some serious heels on them, with internal lifts too I'd guess. Floyd is 5'7, Conor 5'85" - 5'9.

Canelo Alvarez obviously under 5'7 yet listed as 5'9.
Similar too Eddie Alvarez who's listed at 5'9 yet did you see how short he was against Mcgregor? Maybe its an Alvarez thing.

Well to those who doubt that short men can be successful especially in combat sports,Floyd is living proof that isn't true.50-0 and the guy struggles to look 5'7...next to Connor it was hard to get a perfect height difference due to the fact that he was wearing a baseball cap and posture...case in point...

ArjunaKorale said on 1/Sep/17
Thanks for your lengthy reply, Editor Rob. I would like to address one of your comments: why a boxer would not want his/her true height to be known. Sometimes a vast difference in height can hurt how the the shorter boxer performs (and then, of course, there is the psychological advantage/disadvantage). Good examples of this are: i) Roberto Duran vs Tommy Hearns, where there was a 5.5 to 6 inch height difference as well as a 12 inch difference in reach (5 ft 7 Duran was slaughtered by 6 ft 0.5 inch Hearns in 2 short rounds); ii) Dick Tiger vs Bob Foster, where there was a 7.5 inch height difference (5 ft 7.5 Tiger was pole axed in 4 rounds by Foster). But this is not always the case. For instance, 5 ft 10 inch Mike Tyson regularly annihilated guys 5 to 7 inches taller than himself.

Going back to 'Fights of the Century', two other strong contenders would be Ali vs Frazier & Ali vs Foreman. Ali vs Foreman is, without question, my favourite fight of all time, simply because no one gave old Ail a chance in hell against Big George...yet Ali thrashed Foreman emphatically....that fight has to be seen to be believed!

@KH to be honest it looks more than 2 inches between them
KH said on 29/Aug/17
Lets not exaggerate the difference in height between McGregor and Mayweather. It is at most two inches and more likely about 1.5 inches. Floyd is 5'6.5-5'7 range and McGregor 5'8 to 5'8.5 range.

Mayweather won the mach but lost the 171cm listing because of McMreggor
If he didn't face Mcreggor he would still be 171cm here.
Editor Rob
he has been on the 171 ropes ever since I met Ricky Hatton...I think you can see the time those guys squared up without sneakers that he really didn't seem more than an inch on Ricky, and with Conor, he makes him look a 170cm at most too.

SportsHeight said on 4/Aug/17
Rob, do you think fighters and boxers exaggerate their reach/wingspan at a similar rate to their height? For example, Floyd's listed reach is 72 inches and McGregor's is 74 inches. Granted, reaches are almost always listed as round numbers, and fighters are known to often have disproportionately long arms, but I do wonder if they are quite as long as advertised.
Editor Rob
some will have genuinely long wingspans.

We need to see the stats when they go into pre fight measurements. If I can recall correctly Floyd was actually measured either 5'6.5 or 5'6.75 when he fought Pacquiao and the latter 5'5.5. McGregor is about 1.5" taller than Floyd 5'8 or 5'8.25 easing toward a strong 5'8".



Nope. He was listed at 5'8 perpetually through out his career accept for his pro debut when he was listed at 5'7.5.

He doesn't have a tiny head. In fact he has a big forehead. Look closer you will clearly see an inch at most between them based on the average heights of there 3 days of stare downs.

McGregor didn't paint himself well either calling Floyd a f***** little squirt...the guy is not exactly tall himself.

Floyd is no taller than 5'7. Floyd's about an inch taller than 5'5.5 confirmed Ricky Hatton and shorter than Mcgregor by at most 3cm.
Guesstimator said on 14/Jul/17
Floyd is not as tall as he looked in Brooklyn lol. That was a pair of thick ass soled Trainers (Nike I think). Not even lifts, not trying to hide anything, just a big old pair of thick trainers.

Floyd slightly shorter in the other three press conferences where if anything Connor appeared to have thicker footwear. They are about the same eye level but McGregor has a much bigger forehead lol. Can't work out if it's McGregor with a big head or Mayweather with a tiny head. It's pretty funny.

Out of the two of them it's McGregor who seems the most fixated on size I think. A lot of references to Floyd's height (even though not much smaller). I've heard this from him before in the UFC.

Being taller probably isn't going to help him any with this boxing fight though lol.

Wore mega-heeled sneakers to be slightly taller than McGregor. When McGregor was in dress shoes (probably a slight advantage) he looked maybe 3cm taller.

I think there's about an inch difference and the listings at this site are pretty accurate. The difference is almost entirely in Connor's enormous head btw.
KH said on 13/Jul/17
Actually time to downgrade Connor not Mayweather. I saw some publicity shots where there appeared to be less then an inch between them and some where Floyd looked as tall. Weak 5'8 for Connor. He has no more then .5-.75 inches inches on Floyd at most. Floyd 5.7 and change Connor right at 5'8 possibly a fraction below later in the day. No way in the world is MacGregor 5'8.5 barefoot later in the day.

Connor wears heeled boots. See him with Sergei kovalev at the mick conlan fight. Kovalev 6ft and mcgregor on,y looked an inch or two shorter. The second press conference in Toronto Floyd not much shorter. To me there is an 1.25 inches between them at most.
XYZmeister said on 13/Jul/17
@observer floyd was wearing nike airmax which give 2 inch heels and Conor was wearing 1.5 inch dress shoes with no lifts. Ive seen Conor is various stare offs with and without shoes and he always seems to be taller without showes by the same amount with shoes. So i disagree with you there. If anything floyd has a half inch shoe advantage. Conor is a legit 5'9 beside a 5'6.7 floyd.

It is true what Mayweather said on TMZ. Mcgregor hasn't been an undefeated boxer for 21 years. Everybody says Mayweather is scared, but it's obvious that Mcgregor is the type of fighter that cant take a lot of punches in the UFC ring. Mcgregor should be scared as well. Remember he's only an MMA fighter not a pro boxer. Anything can happen if they both step in a boxing ring. That 1 billion cash would go to MAYWEATHER folks if it's a boxing match.
Junior31 said on 25/Jan/17
Rob!!!

Let's put this to rest!

On this site you have boxer Amir khan listed accurately at 5'8.25. Amir fought canelo Alvarez who gets listed at 5'9 but is actually 5'7.5

If you search canelo khan weigh in you will see Amir comfortably .75 minimum taller then canelo. Now canelo fought maywesther. If you search there stare downs you will see Floyd to be a cm or more taller then canelo. This ultimately equals what I've been saying all along. Floyd is at minimum 5'7.5. As a height expert like yourself notice floyds bald head in comparison to others that have hair. His eye level to top of head level is deceptively steep.

Please do your due diligence and look at what I'm saying. The validity of the page deserves it!! Let me know what you see!!!

Thanks Rob!

Most boxers don't get measured anyway like other sports, watching the talkinboxing podcast with Billy c and Sal (Rocky) Cenicola he just said he is listed as 5'7 on his boxrec page he had to stretch out an inch or two honest guy, most guys I'm guessing tho under 5'8 in boxing will add 1-2 Inches in height.

On Floyd he was always listed as 5'8- I can agree on this listing he looks 5'7.5 max and 5'7 minimum

Hi Rob, have you ever considered adding Canelo Alvarez or Gennady Golovkin to the website? Both massive draws in boxing and can definitely be classed as celebrities these days - their heights have always been unclear over the years, it would be good to get some clarity on them! Thanks!

Junior - I could buy 5' 8" for Brook and 5' 8.75" for Golovkin but no more. I can't buy more than 5' 6.75" for Canelo/Floyd, if anything they can 'look' 5' 6.5".

I have Rob @ 5' 8.25" and Glenn @ 5' 6.5" fwiw, a dream photo for me would be Glenn with Floyd.

As for Rob, he's a good height estimator usually, his only downside imo is being 0.25" leniant, like a slight 'benefit of doubt'. Glenn exploited this in claiming higher by inc stad errors, lay down for hours, etc.

Celebs can manipulate perception with footwear, posture and dominant, colourful personalities.


I understand celebrities can manufacture height but when you are discussing professional athletes whose career is predicated on measurements your mistaken. I'm in the boxing business and the sport. I've met 2/3 he fighters your discussing and I can tell you you are consistently off by .75-1 inch. I. Not telling you as a fan of the site or the celebrity. I'm telling you as a reputable source.

And I think it's blasphemous to bring up the Big G and his height tactics as a possible scenarios a professional athlete would do LOL. The Volvo sleeping is something that is autonomous to the G. LOL

I have Rob @ 5' 8.25" and Glenn @ 5' 6.5" fwiw, a dream photo for me would be Glenn with Floyd.

As for Rob, he's a good height estimator usually, his only downside imo is being 0.25" leniant, like a slight 'benefit of doubt'. Glenn exploited this in claiming higher by inc stad errors, lay down for hours, etc.

Celebs can manipulate perception with footwear, posture and dominant, colourful personalities.

Heights are barefeet estimates, derived from quotations, official websites, agency resumes, in person encounters with actors at conventions and pictures/films.

Other vital statistics like weight or shoe size measurements have been sourced from newspapers, books, resumes or social media.
