    Keith Thurman went from being listed 5'11 to 5'8?

    I clearly remember him being listed at 5'11 during telecast's and now Boxrec has him at 5'7. Hilarious.

    He had to have worn some real good elevator shoes but got caught.

      Yea he's really not that big although everyone seems to think he is. 5'8 and 69" reach. He's very strong physically though.

        Yep. A lot people see him as a huge welterweight. He's solid legit one. But not huge at 147. Probably a little smaller than Brook.

          Showtime doesn't *** around with height stats. They expose everybody. They reduced Allan Green from 6'3 to 6'1. Jermain Taylor from 6'1 to 5'11. And most recently Alvarez from 5'9 to 5'7.

          I guess that's one of the perks/privileges fighting on HBO, they just go with the inflated numbers.

          But still, how someone gave themselves an additional three inches is amazing to me. Usually they bump it up an inch over what they actually are.
