Jacobs looks like the tougher, stronger, faster man. While GGG looks like chubby kid. Who can be intimidate with that. It gets everyone by surprise.

Still, not much. I was expecting like an Andre Ward-Brand size difference where Ward looks sooooo much taller than brand and was like twice his size face to face. Here GGG looks only like he is an inch shorter. shoulders to shoulders their about equal, and GGG is slightly shorter in the neck compared to Jacob's long ass neck.

I was expectign something like this.

ok it's settled.

that's about 2 inches right there.

This is why there is no need for GGG to ever move up. He's a small middleweight. Jacobs is about the average size of a Middleweight these days.

5'10 1/2 & 6'1

And GGG only looks like he is an inch shorter.....or Jacobs is over estimated in height. There is no size advantage for Jacobs other than an inch taller in height.

I just really don't get it. Their bios say GGG is 5'10 1/2 yet is only an inch shorter in the pictures in comparison to the 6'1 jacobs with should have been waaaaay more taller in the eye to eye comparison.

it is about inch and half in perspective from the top of their skulls.


however Jacobs seems to have a longer neck. his shoulder is only slightly higher than GGG's.

GGG got that curled up back dude is really like 6'2 if he stands straight, but since he dont hes about 5'11- 6foot.

It seems like an inch shorter from the top of their skulls. But if you look at Andre Ward and Alexander Brand, a 6'1 and a 5'10 1/2 you just see how much bigger and taller Ward is. And Basically Jacobs here and GGG their height is just an inch different in eye to eye test, basically no size disadvantage.

He has a habit of slouching his back even in the face offs. In the Lemeiux fight where Lemmy is 5'9 1/2 GGG was slouching in the face off yet he looked like an inch and a half taller or 2 inches taller than him.

brand is about 5'7.


dudes lie about their height all the time.

Every fighter's height is a conspiracy here.

Mayweather is taller than Canelo, Canelo and GGG are about the same heigt, GGG and Ward are about the same heigth. Why was there never talk about a potential bout between May and Ward? It would be a true chess match by two master chessmen, and it's certainly possible with the logic posters here use to speculate a fighter's true height.
