    Was on the set of Rocky Balboa at Mandalay Bay in 2005 right after the Hopkins fight. He's about 5 10. The man has a presence. Believe me he fills a room. Him and Tarver in the ring together gives you a feel for his height and size. He was impressive and took shots from Tarver. The guy's got the biggest set of cahones yet. In 2019 at 72, no matter who you are you're going to shrink.

          I’d say the film was a product of its time. Lines like “you can’t move like a coloured fighter” would not fly today.

          I wouldn’t say drago being a Russian was racist exactly, once again it’s a product of its time. This was around the time of the Cold War so a pro America film just makes sense.

              "In that pic he looks normal.

              Maybe 5'7ish. I wouldn't look at him and think "Damn look at that short mother***er walking right dur.""

              You have no idea what you're talking about.

                Since when has 5' 7" been normal? If a man is that height he's short.

                    It's short, no question, but mother***ers are acting like we're talking about a 5'2 midget blown away by his small size.

                    Average American male is 5'9 I believe. 2 inches shorter than the national average and people are blown away lol
