      I know what he's talking about my friend and no where did I say Tyson was 5'7". Seems BKM either had a problem comprehending what I wrote or he's trying to rock the boat by deliberately misinterpreting what I said. Lets hope its the former and not the latter.

        Here is a link to the thread I did with the Paz-Tyson picture. Unfortunately the pic has since been removed from the internet.

        Discuss the history of the sport and the boxers that made the sport.

          Pictures aren't worth much these days.

          Anyone see the photo of Cunningham in the Fury camp? He looked the same height as Hughie who's supposedly 6'6 and just a tat shorter than Tyson who's supposed to be 6'9 (but really 6'8).

            I was talking about the poster above me who estimated Tyson to be between 5'7 and 5'9.

              IronDan maybe he had cowboy boots on??? Or your really 5'10"???

              Either way I'm not going through this **** again, believe what you want and why learn from someone who knew both men and actually handled one of them! 'This place just get tiring at times, its like dealing with teenagers who prefer challenging as opposed to learning! Its old now! Time to rest...
              You asked for people who have stood next to Tyson and then when people answer you, you start flipping out. It's pathetic.

              I don't believe you dealed with Mike Tyson on a consistent basis at all, to be honest. All I see from you is talk, I've yet to see any substance. Every time you're asked to provide something to show your credentials you constantly harp on about, you never do.

              I know how tall I am, I'm 6 ft tall, on the dot. I've met Mike Tyson multiple times, stood next to him multiple times. A very close friend of mine worked the arena in Scotland in 2000 for the fight with Lou Savarese and also the big one in 2002 with Lewis. On both occasions we stood next to Mike Tyson multiple times for extended periods and he was slightly shorter than me.

                Fair enough and you have my apology.

                    Seems like I'm the only person on this forum that hasn't stood side by side with Tyson.
