How tall is Tyson Fury?

Post by Controversial »

I’m sure this has been discussed before but saw footage of Fury with Joseph Parker today and no way can Fury be 6’8” or 6’9” (boxrec lists him as 6’9”)

Parker was in flip flops and Fury was wearing boots and he only looked a few inches taller and Parker is 6’3”

What do you reckon?

Bloody tall!!! He seemed to dwarf Klitchsko and Wilder.

Tall enough to create a ruckus if he falls in the woods.

It is a long time since I have seen Fury but he is a big lump. He was always listed as 6'7" earlier in his career. I don't think he carries himself that straight unless he is consciously 'being tall' so may appear shorter.
At the same time whilst I have never met Parker, I suspect that he is actually a little taller than 6'3" or perhaps just walks and stands very upright as there are many pictures of him stood next to Haye who I can say is certainly 6'3" and Parker almost always appears to be a little taller than him.

There's a good website here for celeb heights:

I'd say they are pretty accurate, I'd say Fury is somewhere around 6'7 .5"

But if there was no one else around. Would Tyson Fury falling in the woods make a sound?

No but there would be an uproar if the referee let him get back up again

It depends on what pictures of Fury you want to look at. Wladimir for years was listed as 6'7" and Vitali as 6'8". BoxRec for whatever lists everybody as shorter, listing Wladimir as 6'6" and Vitali as 6'7".

Fury is taller than Wladimir. And Fury in certain pictures looks immense next to Wilder. Hell on film it looked like a string bean squaring up to Fury.

I've seen Fury next to Price and he's slightly taller by a fraction. Price is legitimately 6'8". So Fury is probably 6'8.5"-6'9".

Fury's a notorious sloucher. But when he's standing straight, he's clearly taller. There's a picture of him and Price in an airport where Fury's standing tilted, and is same height as Price.

I know Tyson well and he is very slightly just short of 6ft 9” he Doesn't always stand up straight and tall for photos so can’t measure by them
