I DON'T THINK SO. I KNEW JEFF AND I DON'T BELIEVE HE WAS OVER 6.2.

mate this guy is 6'5''. he was always listed as 6'5''.

he had a wide legged stance that took away from his height advantages in fights though. hey remember after the witherspoon fight, they stood straight up and shook hands and sims towered over spoon. and spoon is 6'3'', some even think 6'4''.

YOU MIGHT BE RIGHT, BUT I DON'T REMEMBER HIM SO TALL.

Jeff must have been one skinny mfo.

He only weighed 209 for the spoon fight.
The heaviest he ever fought was 222 for Sutton.

If U have a tape, it should have the tale-of-the-tape in the pre fight hype.
Unfortunately, the USA network was notoriously known for exaggerating the measurements.

Maybe VHS Wes can help.
