Looking closely he was maybe half inch taller than wlad, so 6'7", to maybe 6' 7.5" max seems about right.

Fury looks to be about same height as wilder who always stand bite hunched, since we
know wilder not concerned about exaggerating his own height, while we seen fury
many occasion he try rise his height, by standing on his toes. what's your guess ..

6'4" jason momoa badly exposed fury height.

watch the clip at 00:44 seconds. He asks Tyson fury: "How tall are you ?Are you 6'6" or 6'5" " ?

Who cares.

I mean, maybe you don't know how to measure, but if Momoa is 6'4, Fury certainly looks at least 4 or 5 inches over him at first glance.

Speaking of Jason Momoa, is it just me or does that guy look A LOT like WWE Wrestler Roman Reigns.

Nobody's the height they claim on celebheights, not even Klitchko himself nor Wilder. Wlad isn't listed as 6'7" on celebeights.

There does seem to be a massaging of height figures of the rich & famous, particularly sports people.

For example, Mike Tyson's height was always over estimated & he was commonly listed as 5' 11.5", when in reality, he is about 5' 9" approximately.

Saying that, I always believed Tyson Fury to be his listed height.

A good barometer would be to see him up close with Vitali, who is 6' 8": There must be pictures of the two of them in close proximity as Fury fought Wladimir.

They could be related.

He's slightly shorter than David Price , prob just a tad under 6'8, he used to be listed variously at 6'7 and 6'8 and then just seemingly decided on 6'9

Wlad said in an interview he's around 6'5. Most people are shorter on celebheights because most people like to add some height, especially athletes and ''entertainers' .

Yeah, but Efe is 7'2". Right?

with a 100 inch reach

LOLOLOL!

Look man, I was never convinced about the 6'9 thing but all you have to do is see him in the ring, where there's no big heels, no steps in shoes, just boxing boots which have the tiniest of soles. And he is noticeably bigger than his biggest opponents. He made Wlad and, especially, Wilder look small.

So I think 6'8, 6'9 or so sounds about right.

The one I used to question most out of all that lot was Hughie, who's supposed to be 6'6, when his cousin looked to have far more than 3" on him.

Wlad claims to be 'only' 6'5

He was heftier than Wilder but looked about the same height?

Whatever Fury's height, it's very very tall but still prob a bit shorter than David Price's

Ok I'll bite. Wlad has plenty of history of head games/gamesmanship with height. I've seen that interview where he claims 6'5 and he has to think about it before he says it. Him saying Fury was the same height as Wach was in the buildup to their fight, right? And in some final press conference or something Wlad had Munster goth boots (like one of my ex girlfriends used to wear ) that made him the same height. Just head games. I think Wlad and Vitali like to mess with people. The height thing is just part of it.

I must watch Wilder-fury 2 at least once a week it comes up in my YouTube recommend and I always let it run. Personally to me he looks noticeably taller then Wilder, as well as much bigger.

Price photos: I'm posted links to these before. Dunno. You got me. If Fury is 6'9, then Price looks like a 6'10 or more guy and we know that isn't the case. I don't know? Footwear, posture... this is the stuff they all argue about on that celebrityheights.com

It was his main unique selling point during the time when he was getting started and still quite rubbish. So sure, I can see it being exaggerated.

I remember the first time reading about him as a mini feature in the amateur section of Boxing News and he was listed as 6'7 then.

This rings true. If he dwarfed Wilder & Wlad, then he must be huge.
If he's an inch or two smaller than stated, then they must all be.

Except for David Price

Didn't see him dwarfing Wilder at all tbh, even with chunky shoes. Next thing he'll be taller than Valuev

Nearly everyone lists there height wrong. So to then start comparing heights to figure out how tall someone is dosent realy work. Look at the NBA, up untill last year there heights were horrific. some people lost 3 inches when the meassured properly this year. and KD gained 2 inches....

I dont blaim them i'd list my height wrong. Tall and wear lifts to the press conferences or short and subtily slouch/crouch, i don't care id just want people getting in sparing partners that are all slightly wrong and mentaly preparing for a different fight.

Vitali isn't 6'8" though. At least not on the same website.

Posture, footwear, perspective and camera angles often make it difficult to evaluate the height of an individual.

I do know that Fury looked noticeably taller than Wilder and Klitschko on the night of their bouts.

And yet I can also post photos of Wilder and Klitschko towering over David Haye, but Hayemaker also appearing to be a similar height to Tyson Fury.

BoxRec has David Haye and Tony Bellew’s height as 6’3”, but the ‘Hayemaker’ constantly appeared to be a couple of inches shorter than the ‘Bomber’.

In fact, Bellew also appeared to be slightly taller than Usyk (despite BoxRec having these guys as being the same height) with Oleksandr being dwarfed by his fellow Ukraine, Wladimir Klitschko.

BoxRec has Wladimir Klitschko’s height as 6’6”, but ‘Dr Steelhammer’ told the BBC that he was only 6’5”, but he consistently appeared to be either the same height as Anthony Joshua or even taller.

Andy Ruiz Jr. is supposedly 6’2”, but he was dwarfed by the likes of AJ and Joseph Parker. He seems shorter than that, but is it because he's so rotund?

I seem to recall Mike Tyson’s official height being 5’11½” when he was active, but this was subsequently revised to 5’10”, but he might even be shorter than that, because even Andy Ruiz Jr. appeared to have a few inches over him when they met.

The whole height “thing” can daisy chain indefinitely when we keep comparing the height of fighters when they meet.

The numbers don’t seem to make any sense when you see people meeting up face-to-face. It's a little confusing at times.

I think Boxec’s height figures are really only ball-park stats that have been gathered on a best effort basis.

I know I’ve gone off at a tangent, but I think the point I’ve made is clear enough when you review the people named in this post.

Thank you. This is perfect photo shot from distance and direct angle. Tyson fury in high heel shoe
while Deonty in nearly flat heel.
Dad they wore same kind of shoe, they looked exact height. So i was wrong, Fury is less than 6ft 7.5inches ....6ft 7inch to be exact.

I'm sure I read on another threat that Fury was listed as 6'6" or 6"7" as an amateur. I've never been convinced he's 6'9", its not uncommon for people to exaggerate their height. I think a lot is mind games, a bit like Klitschko wearing those shoulder pads into the ring to make him look even bigger.

I'm sure I read somewhere on another forum that some Russian TV programme had measured Valuev and he wasn't even 7'. He was 6'11 or something.

Like I said, maybe they're all exaggerating their height and I always though Wilder and Fury were probably about the same height, with like maybe a half inch more more for Tyson. But in the ring it's much clearer who the taller fella is.

One thing that's definitely noticeable in that photo you posted is Fury's reach. His arms look significantly longer than Wilder's.
