How Tall Is Canelo Really? 5' 7"? 5'8"? 5'9"?

Haha! Yeah, I read the posts on Stallone on that site some time ago. I recall all sorts of comments made about him wearing lifts. Amazing how much taller he looks in the first picture. No shame in his game. Lol Sly built his career on action movies, so I guess he always felt the need to “play it up.” But whatever physical size he may be, one thing is certain: Stallone is a very impressive individual. No doubt about that.

yeah, Stallone did very well for himself, didnt let himself get corn'dholed out of his own movie and made a career out of nothing for himself. Hes not a "small" dude but the roles he played had em pinned up against some giants so guess he felt he had to live up to that part.

But since Brian Kenny on air during the Canelo fight made it a point to keep pointing out that Canelo is not 5'9" like he claims that he hes 5'8" I went looking it up and went downt he rabbit hole of boxers height. I actually think eveyrone in boxing is lying about there height and canelo is 5'7, mawyeather 5'6.8, khan is 5'7.8", etc etc the rabbit hole keeps on going

I absolutely think that he is approx 5'7", with GGG coming in at around 5'9" for comparison. The issue of height in boxing is distorted largely because not unlike Hollywood, damn near everyone seems to misrepresent their true height. I think the overwhelming majority of fighters are a couple inches shorter than their stats on boxrec, et al, to the point where it's almost literally take what's on paper and subtract 2.

Yeah, it’s been a thing for a long time. Nothing new, especially with the shorter guys. But even regular guys fudge their height a little. I’m like MAYBE 5’6 3/4”, but always say 5’7”. You sound like a tool if you get into the fractions. Haha Plus, it’s much simpler to round off (especially if it’s up Lol).

I've seen him in person when he was doing the press tour for the Mayweather fight.

I was pretty close to him, I would say he was around 5'7 at the time. He could be 5'8 now.

There’s actually a site where dudes obsess about celebrity heights. I have to believe they have a better idea than most of us what Canelo’s real height is. They have him at 5’7 1/2”.

In the neighborhood of 5' 7" is about right.

[kingstip9]

Could be but I think both of these arent even cose to 5;8" imo

I’d say canelo is 5.7” and floyd is 5.75”

About 5'8" tall.
