Title: Tyson Fury, height fraud
Post by: Wiggs on October 20, 2023, 04:13:36 PM

Tyson Fury alleges 6'9
Magic Johnson 6'9
Alex Pereira 6'4

Tyson Fury is really like 6'6 max
Which means Wilder who is listed at 6'7is really 6'5 max.

When you're that tall, why lie? Especially in boxing.

Yeah, there's no doubt he's a massive dude. But I've suspected this for a long time.

Even Wilder, who weighed at most 220-225 and was most effective at 215, would look like a string bean at 6'7" yet he had a heavily muscled upper body. Also I seem to remember Fury being only a shade taller than Wilder when they fought.

On a side note Fury beat Klitschko in 2015. He's only had a small handful of fights since then. It's easy to forget how long he's been at the top. This thing with Nganbo or whatever the hell his name is, could blow up in Fury's face.

Magic is standing closer so hard to tell.

Magic is not 6’9 though.

Bird is taller and actually 6’9.

Magic is still really big for his position.

Bird was a big 6'9"... he dwarfed Magic in their primes.

Bird was bigger. Bird was better. Tyson is bigger. Tyson is better.

I wonder if Magic Johnson would’ve done well in boxing.

Yes the insecurity in tall men can be surprising.  Reminds me of this classic moment

Great post, Wiggs. As usual.

My friend told me that Tyson Fury called Wilder a midget.  ;D

If I recall correctly, Fury met Hafthor Bjornsson, and they both looked about the same height?

It wouldn't be hard for a 6'6.5" man to lie and claim 6'9".

I’ve seen Magic in person. I’d put him at 6’6, 6’7 absolute tops.

Good ones Obsidian.  I think he's around 6'6.
Magic's real height is 6'8.

Nah...of course I've seen interviews about guys saying Bird was a "big" 6'9". NBA wanted them to be equal height for ratings.

Parrish billed at 7'1", McHale at 6'10" and Bird.

I’d bet at least 75% of NBA heights are exaggerated.

Kobe Bryant was measured by his wife around 6’4 and change but listed at 6’6

He even said himself that he is “probably” 6’5 in shoes

just like bb's arms and waist measurments, didlo heath claimed a 29 inch waist :D :D :D 36-38 inches was his real measurement

on a side note most the great heavyweights from the early mid-70s were bout 210, ali, frazier, norton, shavers

tyson was 210 as well

That’s cause both players are actual 6’4 3/4 which is confirmed
