6'9"......... Carnera was 6'5" and three-quarter inches.


Course then again, during his professional wrestling years he was billed to as much as 6'10" depending on who he was matched with, and in reality wasn't unusual in his life--- in his early years in Europe when he first started out in boxing he was listed as being much taller, heavier, and this paid off because Carnera was deliberately matched against the smallest men his management could find. When he did his first American tour, they followed the same premise. However, that doesnt mean Carnera was getting by, feeding on physical inferiors, because he proved in later years he could defeat other giants like Jose Santa (6'8") and Ray Impeltierre (6'9") rather easily.

Tyson Fury will be doing stuff like this when he's 53

Lmao, as much as I have defended Carnera on this forum in the past, Fury would of boxed his head off.
