he is legit 6ft6
Mickie said on 22/Apr/19
I'll agree with Rob on A.J.
My current estimates of how tall some of the boxers of the 90s, 00s, and 10s who are listed on this would measure in the evening, shoeless:
Anthony Josua - 6' 5 3/4"
Tyson Fury - 6' 7 5/8"
David Price - 6' 8 1/4"
Deontay Wilder - 6' 6 1/4"
Vitali Klitschko - 6' 6 5/8"
Wladimir Klitschko - 6' 5 1/8"
Lennox Lewis - 6' 4 5/8"
Joe Joyce - 6' 5 3/8"
Evander Holyfield - 6' 1 1/4"
Mike Tyson - 5' 10"
David Haye - 6' 1 7/8"
Zs said on 20/Apr/19
He's legitimately 6'6. I met him a few days ago and I'm 6'6 and a half and I was ever so Slightly taller than him. He's definitely 6'6.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 17/Apr/19
Rob, can you add Jarrell Miller?
Listed 6ft4 but I think he may be more 6ft3 range. Definitely at least 2in between him and Joshua
Dream said on 15/Apr/19
His 6'6" claim is perfectly fine. He's closer to that than 6'5".
Plus, there are 6'5" who claim 6'6". There are 6'4" who also claim 6'6". AJ isn't one of them.
K.A 188 said on 15/Apr/19
After seeing a barefoot AJ still looking a bit taller than Ibrahimovic with shoe advantage, it seals the deal for me AJ is a legit 6ft6 barefoot and maybe 197 at his lowest
Dream said on 8/Apr/19
He has almost perfect military posture.
Rob, would you say AJ has the ‘best posture’ of all the people, you’ve met?
Editor Rob
I'm sure there are people who stood better than Joshua, although when he's walking and standing he does have a very tall look to him.
Canson said on 27/Mar/19
This listing is as good as it gets. Weak 6’6”
Canson said on 11/Mar/19
I remember Rob saying that he didn’t remember exactly what time of the day he met AJ. I think taking shoes into account and the video that he posted recently in regards to AJ’s height, that anything up to 6’6” looks pretty accurate but emphasis on up to. I would really say that if it’s a lunchtime measurement as Rob suspected his low may end up right around where he’s listed here 6’5.75 since Rob also was at the disadvantage with footwear. Good enough for 6’7 in something like b-ball shoes
Editor Rob
If you paused the video at the point I mentioned he was only 20 quid, you can see he was there between 11am and 3pm and I think roughly lunchtime. He did another group shot afterwards, went back to signing and away by 3pm.
maa said on 7/Mar/19
Big baby miller looks around 6 ft 3 but he had massime elevator shoes, so he could be shorter...
Gman39 said on 6/Mar/19
@Jordan87,
Yes I agree. Right now I believe he could be anything between 6'2.5 and 6'3.5. I am leaning to 6'3+ but those massive boots (with who knows what in them) and big head make him hard to figure at the moment. Hopefully they have a barefoot stare down at the weigh-in.
Jordan87 said on 4/Mar/19
@ Gman,
Yeah the FIrst Time Miller and Joshua Stared down, I thought Miller was only 6'2.5", but the second and third time he looked taller. Miller has an absolutely MASSIVE head though. Could make it difficult to figure him.
Gman39 said on 21/Feb/19
Whyte is about 6'2.5. Joshua's next opponent, Big Baby Miller looks to be about 6'3 or 6'3.5. It was hard to tell because he had big combat boots on at the presser and may have had footwear advantage on Joshua.
Lord Humongous said on 7/Feb/19
I just want to say this is accurate but there's no way dillian whyte is 6'4 it's laughable. (not sure if dillian whyte has a celeb height page)
Dream said on 30/Jan/19
@Rob
So basically because of Anthony Joshua's high eye-level, he can look taller to a lot of people.
Editor Rob
He does in person going by eyelevels
Lambo said on 29/Jan/19
AJ looking 2 inches shorter than legit 6'8" Greg Davies on the Graham Norton show recently:
Click Here
Canson said on 28/Jan/19
@184guy: I would say if AJ falls to 6’5.75 that 6’6.75 is very much believable for him. I don’t know about Gwen tho I’ve never believed 6’4.5 out of bed. I think that’s her wearing shoes and that’s what she meant by depending on when
Dream said on 28/Jan/19
Rob, if a 6'5 7/8" guy (in winter boots) was standing beside Anthony Joshua, what would the difference look like?
Editor Rob
It depends on what Joshua is wearing, but he has the benefit of a great physique and highish eyelevel.
In person of course because of the difference in our eyelevels, Joshua's eyelevel seemed smaller than normal, by virtue of the fact I'm looking up - when he is looking down at 5ft 8 men he might think the person has a longer eyelevel...if that makes sense
184guy2 said on 26/Jan/19
Gwendoline Chrstie 6'4.5 out of bed believible
Anthony Joshua 6'7 out of bed NOT believible ?
secondrowback said on 26/Jan/19
He had footwearadvantage - about 1.5cm - over Greg Davies on Graham Norton Show last night. Greg looked easily two inches (plus) taller before the staredown. AJ was stretching and maybe tip_toeing during the staredown and at one point the difference was about one inch, but then GD straightened up and cleared him by two inches. I think AJ would be 2.5 inches shorter than GD if they were barefooted.
Canson said on 26/Jan/19
@Miko: very much possible
Voltaire said on 25/Jan/19
Looked every inch of 6'5.5 - 6'6 last night on the Graham Norton Show, especially when he stood face-to-face with 6'8 Greg Davies.
miko said on 25/Jan/19
Not impossible AJ is close to 6'7 out of bed. Given his weight & size he could lose a full inch through the day.
Canson said on 25/Jan/19
@Rob: in sneakers based on how you saw him that would be extremely likely if he’s 6’5.75 he would be either the full 6’7” or slightly over or maybe 1/4” under which he would round up.
James Brett said on 23/Jan/19
Rob he claims “6ft6 6ft7” on Conan

Editor Rob
Yes it was seen a while back, 6ft 7 in sneakers is very believable.
Jdubbz 6'4.5" said on 23/Jan/19
AJ looks 196ish due to the footwear advantage, but there is enough evidence that he's at least 197.
Rain said on 16/Jan/19
Rob, I feel as if him and Derek Theler are almost exactly the same height, and of similar proportioms , ofc AJ is a lot bigger and heavier, do you still think Theler would have the edge?
Canson said on 7/Jan/19
@Rob: that probably would mean he could lose another 1/8” or so being a taller guy. Usually after lunch I could lose up to 3mm usually a couple tho. I think 6’5.75 is fair for him even at a low seeing as how he did look 6’6 with Ibra but not Klitschko. I’m beginning to wonder now if Ibra’s 194.5 is an earlier measurement and that he may only 6’4.25 or 3/8 (194ish) for the low
Canson said on 6/Jan/19
@Rob: what time of the day did you meet him and take the picture?
Editor Rob
I don't have timetable saved, but it was I believe around lunch range.
Canson said on 6/Jan/19
@184guy: with Ibra he does
Dream(5'9.5 said on 6/Jan/19
Rob, how tall did he look to you, without considering AJ's footwear advantage?
Editor Rob
Joshua never looked any less than 6ft 6, I'd have said a more solid version but there was enough sneaker differnece I think to say he might measure under it a little.
184guy2 said on 4/Jan/19
@Canson
Don't you think that AJ looks a legit 6'6 with 194-194,5 Ibrahimovic and 189-190 Tony Bellew ??
Canson said on 30/Dec/18
In the pic with Rob if we adjust for his lean and the footwear advantage AJ has that puts him somewhere right in the 197cm range. May not quite be the full 6’6” like Faggerbakke or Wilder or Carmelo Anthony or Baron Corbin but he’s not less than a weak 6’6” based on Rob’s estimation of footwear and the pic. Very much over 6’5”.
Canson said on 30/Dec/18
@Ellis:
I never claim a morning height. You don’t maintain it long enough and it really is pointless to claim it. So in your case you wake up 6’7.75 and dip to 6’6.75. You’re “about 6’7” in that case. I wake up practically 6’5 or 1.5mm over the mark and reach 6’4.25 some days and closer to 6’4.3 on a less active day. I consider myself 6’4”. I did claim 1/2 but I was always asked why I did. It was why do I bother with half instead of 6’4 or more commonly why don’t I round up. I stopped and just say 6’4 now since that’s what I’m closest. The site is based off afternoon and evening heights not Morning. I also have taller friends who just claim what they’re closest to and don’t interfere with that claiming higher as it really does nothing when you do that. Be happy with what you are tho as 6’7” is plenty tall and it gets even harder the taller you get
Canson said on 30/Dec/18
@Ellis: I agree on Wilder. He would still come out around 6’6” at night and he would be close to 6’7” in the morning. As for Joshua I think 6’5.5-.75 range. I doubt less than 6’5.5 but he may be similar to what Rob saw with Joe Mangianello. Rob still had Joe at 6’5” even after he met him then reduced him by 1/4” just like he did with AJ. He mentioned that Joe would be 6’4.5-6’5 around lunch and AJ would be at most 6’6”. My guess is that Joe reaches 6’4.5 and AJ maybe 6’5.5 or .75 max. If AJ falls to that area he would for sure be in excess of 6’6” out of bed. No one that size gets away with losing less than 3/4” per day and most lose full inch or 7/8” in reality. AJ would be probably at least 6’6.5 out of bed. I think the difference would be “up to half inch” No more than that
Ellis-6'7.25 said on 27/Dec/18
@Canson: When you say easily over 6'6, how tall do you mean? If you were to stand Deontay Wilder and Joshua together, how much taller do you think Wilder will be? My guesses are, Wilder is 6'6 at night, just under 6'7 in the morning, Joshua is 6'5.3 at night and 6'6 flat in the morning maybe a paltry amount more, and
Tyson Fury is 6'7 at night and 6'8 in the morning. I always use near my morning height, 6'7.25 is not my night height, it's 6'6.75, when I get up I'm probably 6'7.75 haven't checked though. If I'm very lucky I'm 6'9 in shoes, near when I get up obviously.
Yusuf bahs said on 26/Dec/18
Dillian whyte’s height anyone? He’s listed at 6’4 but is clearly shorter than that. Would say 6’2.5-5’3 anyone agree ?
Canson-6'4 3/8 said on 25/Dec/18
@Mohammed: easily over 6’6 when he wakes up. 6’5 1/2-6’6 looks like what he walks around at
Canson-6'4 3/8 said on 25/Dec/18
@DeLorean: I’d go with 197-197.5 for AJ and 186.5 for Curry. Curry was measured early morning meaning 6’1.5 more likely. AJ looks close to his listing generally
mohammad said on 23/Dec/18
Joshua is 6 foot 6 when he wakes up , period .
Canson said on 23/Dec/18
@Jordan87: I think Wilder is your height. A solid 6’6” at a low but would easily measure 6’6.5 earlier in the day and likely 6’7” or very near it out of bed
DeLorean said on 23/Dec/18
Last but not least, here with NBA player Curry. The seems to reach the same height both in sneakers. So is it Curry 188 or Joshua 197. Which is the truth?🧐

DeLorean said on 22/Dec/18
Sorry Mr. Rob, I’ve seen before only the “cut” edition of the photo... 😅
Editor Rob
It's a shame they were never photographed on the same level, I am sure it would have looked a lot different ;)
DeLorean said on 22/Dec/18
Hi tall guys, just a question for us. I’ve seen Joshua pictured with Prince Charles (UK) in these days. If we assume that the Price is 175 now, in the pictures the difference between them is less than 10 cm... How can we assume that Joshua could possibly be 197.5 barefoot... maybe with minimum 5 cm. sneakers on... I think every star puts 5 o 6 cm. more on their schedule. Everyone should be measured BAREFOOT and nothing more. Even Wilder or Fury. I assume they are minimum 5 cm shorter than listed. Or am I wrong?
Editor Rob
I take it you mean
These Photos.
He's still a few inches taller than Charles, whilst Charles is on a higher step.
Canson said on 20/Dec/18
@Ellis: I would see 6’6.5 as a few hours out of bed for Wilder maybe even a couple. 6’6” at a low imho
Jordan87 said on 19/Dec/18
Ellis,
Wilder should be at the very Least 6'6". Fury was listed at 6'7 once , I doubt he could be much taller than that. He sometimes looks 1/2" On Wilder and others over 1" so it's really weird with these two.
If I was a betting man I'd say Wilder safely clears 6'6" and is likely the 6'6-1/2" in the early afternoon hrs. Fury yes could be over 6'7 but not by much as he was once listed at 6'7" even.
Canson said on 14/Dec/18
@Ellis: 🙏. I must say that Wilder shows a 6’6.5 measurement. However, we don’t know what time of the day. We also see that he doesn’t quite look as tall as Carmelo. Melo isn’t much more than 6’6-6’6.25 range himself. I have them the same size as the camera angle favored Melo imho.
Ellis said on 13/Dec/18
@Canson: I'm starting to see that Fury is more 6'7.25, and Wilder might just be 6'6 flat you really hit the nail on the head with that prediction. For Deontay he can be anywhere from 6'6 to 6'6.25, I just think that 6'6.5 is a bit too high, but it's close enough i guess.
Christian 6'5 3/8" said on 13/Dec/18
@Ellis
l used to think that his father's only 6'1" because I assumed that Joshua was barefoot in that pic. But apprarently that isn't the case.
Canson said on 12/Dec/18
@Ellis: I think anything 6’5.5-6’5.75 fits him. He could be as low as or up to both marks
Ellis said on 10/Dec/18
@Canson: Yeah I agree, according to this picture,
Click Here
Anthony Joshua is a little bit in front of the camera, but his father does have a footwear advantage, if they were standing straight together the difference would be 3.75 considering that if they were shoulder to shoulder Joshua's fathers head would hit a little above Anthony's eye brows. Not considering the footwear the difference is 3.75. Considering the footwear the figure is more like 4 inches, I'd say Anthony Joshua is 6'5.5 and his father is 6'1.5.
@Christian: Just curious you never really clarified how tall you think Anthony Joshua is in the picture if you believe his father is 6'2, how tall do you think Anthony Joshua is in the picture?
Canson said on 6/Dec/18
@MrTBlack: I’ve heard him claim both. He said on that morning news program that he’s 6’6 in the morning and 6’5 in the evening then on the other clip that someone posted (a show with all women that he’s 6’5). My guess is 6’5 for him isn’t a solid 6’5”. He’s 6’5 and change. He likely would come all the way down under normal circumstances. But that he could be 6’5.25 at a low perhaps and 6’6” or possibly a hair over due to his long torso out of bed
MrTBlack said on 6/Dec/18
@Canson
Klitscho claims he’s 6’6”(and he probably is in the morning and close to it in the afternoon) so maybe his stare down with Joshua in the Netflix was during the afternoon at his bes and Joshua’s worst.
Canson said on 4/Dec/18
@MrTBlack: I think he can look close to what Rob has him maybe 6’5 5/8 worst case. Klitschko 6’5.25 is probably good. They’re close in height maybe a cm difference
MrTBlack said on 29/Nov/18
He looked about the same height as Klitschko who’s just over 6’5”. So I’m gonna say anywhere from 6’5.5-6’6”.

Rob, recently, my best friend (The one who would be slightly taller than John Cena) said there 'was' an eighth grader (in our former middle school) who was big. He said that the same 'eighth grader' was somewhere between 6'5"-6'6".
I asked him if that 'former eighth grader' was the same size as Anthony Joshua. (I showed him the picture of you and Anthony Joshua.) My best friend said yes, the eighth grader was as big as Anthony Joshua.

The images Christian provided indicate around a 5 inch difference between him and Povetkin with decent angles.
Zampo said on 28/Sep/18
@Canson: Indeed, in quite a few photos it can seem 4.5 or so but I doubt it (but I could be wrong). 4 inches is a reasonable difference between the two. If AJ is 6'5.75 then Povetkin is would be around 6'1.75.
Robbe said on 28/Sep/18
In Christians pic Joshua looks easily 5in taller than Povetkin, which cant be right. Just look at the weigh in video, where they are on even ground, same footwear, with perfect camera angle, the difference is not over 4in. You may even look Povetkin vs Price weigh in, Povetkin is only 5in shorter there.

Gman39 said on 26/Sep/18
I saw other face-off pics where Povetkin and AJ seemed more than 4 inches apart. I watched the weigh in video, they are both in socks and I would say there is a 4 inch difference. Povetkin has appeared similar in height to 6'1.25 Holyfield in multiple photos. The big giant bodygaurd in the background is at least 6'9. Someone should tell
Tyson Fury that is what a real 6'9 looks like ;)
Zampo said on 26/Sep/18
@Robbe, I agree. It seems to me there is a 3.5-4 inch difference between AJ and Povetkin from what I've seen. It may be closer to 3.5 inch as AJ has a smaller than average eye to head level for someone of his height range. Although in many photos there looked to be a 4.5 difference between the two. I've seen enough of Povetkin to believe he would measure in 6'1.5-6'2 range.
Robbe said on 26/Sep/18
AJ is not over 4in taller than Povetkin. More like 3.5in.

Povetkin is wearing only socks there. Is AJ wearing sneakers? Or are those some kind of socks? If those are shoes, the difference is less than 3.5in.

6'5.5"/197cm In 0.8inch boxing shoes he is likely a solid 6'6" at worst.
Big T said on 23/Jul/18
Povetkin's eyes are at Joshua's mouth, which suggests about a 3" height difference
However, if you compare the top of Povetkin's head with Joshua's eyeline, you would think it's a 4.5" difference
Also, AJ's eyeline is almost as high as Price's yet he looks 2" shorter
What does that tell us? AJ has a very long chin-to-eyeline, and a very short eyeline-to-top-of-head. This probably makes him look taller than he really is because we are used to using the eyeline of the taller man as a guide. If you are past his eyeline you are probably only about 3" shorter (like Parker was)
Gman39 said on 22/Jul/18
Holyfield (6'1.25) and Povetkin are quite close in height on a few different pics I found online. I would give Povetkin the very slight height edge after reviewing multiple photo's.
Click Here I do think Rob has Joshua listed correctly at almost 6'6. Price looks 6'8 range to me.
Robbe said on 21/Jul/18
Povetkin is a legit 6'2 i think. He was roughly at Price's eyelevel at their staredown.

Canson said on 4/Jul/18
@Elohel and Reece: if AJ isn’t what Rob has him listed, then he is at least 6’5.5. He wouldn’t drop below that on a normal day at least. Klitscko could be 6’5-6’5.25 zone. 6’5 is a worst case
Big T said on 3/Jul/18
Perhaps drawing some long bows here, but if you look at Kevin Pietersen with Rob, KP with AJ, and AJ with Joseph Parker, I do reckon JP seems like a good 6'3"
Reece said on 2/Jul/18
Elohel. Wlad looks shorter in some pics too. It is so close between them. Wlad can look anywhere from a inch shorter to a inch taller even with both standing decent in boxing shoes (no lifts). The height variation is extremely rare in most cases one looks clearly than the other.
Canson said on 26/Jun/18
@Dream and Christian: yes he is taller than Wlad. Prob half inch

@Christian
I honestly don't know where this assessment is coming from. Every time I see pics with him and Wladimir, they look the same height or Wladimir looks taller even. Unless Wlad is wearing lifts not sure how this is happening. Hell, in a pic with stormxy they looked pretty similar in height, with very little between them. I just feel people are getting caught up in the hype and inflating their stats. I notice that happens a lot, with wrestlers too.
Christian 6'5 3/8" said on 22/Jun/18

Joshua's taller than Wladimir.
Elohel said on 20/Jun/18
He seems the same height as Vladimir. Here in the UK we always seem to inflate the size and quality of our athletes (like the americans) he looks 6ft5.5 in boxing shoes. Amusingly enough I feel people will notice it more when the hype dies down. Still like him though...reckon him and wilder will be a good fight.
Canson said on 20/Jun/18
@Rob: my apologies. I meant for Klitschko that he’s 6’5-6’5.25 at a low, not Joshua. I agree that AJ is near 6’6 like 197cm (6’5.5-.75) which is weak 6’6” but Klitschko looks closer to 6’5”.
AJ would be more like 6’6.5-.75 out of bed and 6’5.5-.75 at a low

Canson said on 19/Jun/18
@Rob: possible but my guess is 6’6-6’6.25 out of bed and 6’5-6’5.25 at a low.
Editor Rob
Towards end of this video
CLick Here - Anthony and big Kevin Pietersen.
I mean in person I think Anthony is close to 6ft 6 and Kevin can't really be much less than 6ft 4 flat.
saltyfish said on 15/Jun/18
Then I think it came down to footwear then, as Richard Blackwood is pretty much the same height as Danny Dyer
Canson said on 15/Jun/18
There’s a pic of he and Wlad face to face on the field and AJ is in Under Armour. That said Rob has done well as it’s half inch or CM In favor of AJ. A weak 6’6” AJ 6’5.5-.75 would make Klitscko 6’5-6’5.25
Editor Rob
You could still make an argument for Vlad to be near 6ft 5.5 like many guess him at...I wouldn't rule it out entirely.
saltyfish said on 15/Jun/18
Big Rob, how tall would you say Richard Blackwood is standing next to AJ in the pic below? Keep in mind AJ is standing straight up, and Blackwood is slouching
Click Here
Editor Rob
Depends how much looser his stance is, but it would be hard to imagine him as tall as 5ft 11.
Canson said on 14/Jun/18
@Rob: that makes sense with him next to a 6’8” guy recently. The politician. I would’ve had AJ 6’5.5-.75
Canson said on 14/Jun/18
@Rob: when you met him in person would you have guessed his 6’6/6’7 claim on Conan to be a shoe height or do you think he would hold 6’6 or a hair over at a low as opposed to a weak 6’6”? Which is why he may claim it if he were an early morning measurement
Editor Rob
It's not believable he's over 6ft 6. Maybe he's more like 6ft 6, 7 (in shoes), that's at least believable.
Canson said on 5/Jun/18
@Dream: he would be closer at a low and clear 6’6” out of bed. If Rob isn’t 100% i would still say AJ is 6’5.5 at a low most likely
Dream(5'9.5") said on 4/Jun/18
He clears 6'5." I don't why people think of AJ as 6'4."
His 6'6" is more than reasonable since he's closer to that than 6'5."

@Rob you have this interesting height comparison article here and the result for challenger 15 is 196cm
Click Here
Can you explain why you look obviously taler with Joshua by at least couple inches and he is listed taller than challenger 15?
Editor Rob
Joshua does look a bit taller than the challenger in person...his body frame helps that fact.
The challenger doesn't have that big a head, which probably is a fraction less than Joshua (who has a normal eye but long eye-chin).
Bazza said on 4/May/18
Nah, AJ is certainly over 6'5. He is between 6'5.5 - 6'6 and i think the listing here is about right.
Canson said on 3/May/18
Weak 6’6”
He doesn’t appear to be standing completely straight with Rob the more I see the pic
FMExTREME said on 2/May/18
In that picture with Courtois seems like Courtois had 1.5in advantage, Joshua can't be more than 6'5 at best judging by that photo because Courtois himself looks clearly shorter than 6'7 Peter Crouch so even he might not be a full 6'6.

Being physically huge is more important for hw Boxing than for hw MMA
Jordan87 said on 4/Apr/18
The height and reach over Parker was evident from the Start , but AJ Outboxed him honestly. AJ is a monster, keep in mind a prime George Forman was around 6'3 and 226 pounds ( In 1970's). Parker is actually bigger than Foreman was, and look how small AJ makes him Look.
Boxers are certainly alot bigger today. ALi, Frazier, Liston all around 200 to 220 ( Liston being the Biggest in weight). Thats tiny in modern standards of HW.
Steve 27777 said on 2/Apr/18

6'3 Parker is about bang on yes i agree with the comment below. I don't see why boxers lie because it is so obvious in stare downs with those we know are pretty much telling the truth, easier for wrestlers to get away with it to the masses.
CreepX said on 31/Mar/18
Big T:
During the weigh in face off, Joshua and Parker had the same type sneakers. I Hawkeyed their heels during the weigh in. Just the same. I've got Parker exactly at 6'2.6" inches if AJ is 6'5.75" To make it easier for you. Just go by the top of the ear and compare it to the top of the head for both fighters. Then you compare it with
Click Here same there. top of the head/top of the ear for both figures.
Editor Rob
Bear in mind Joshua has a smaller eyelevel for his height, sometimes in photos it will be closer to 4 inches than 4.5
Big T said on 30/Mar/18
Parker looks slightly taller next to AJ than Dillian Whyte imo. He also looks slightly taller than Luis Ortiz did next to 6’4” listed Malik Scott- all supposedly 6’4” but Scott embarrasses them a bit. I suspect of the 3 6’4” listed contenders that they are all 6’2”-6’3” with Ortiz closest to 6’2” and Parker closest to 6’3”. One thing about Parker is he has never looked much short of his listing against previous opponents.
Big T said on 30/Mar/18
For a tall guy he really forces posture in staredowns etc. Yes he looks a good 3 inches over Parker but you’ll never see a photo where the difference looks less. Obviously AJ is conscious of it and likes to make a point of the advantage.
joe### said on 30/Mar/18
Hughie maybe 6´4.5

@Gaz8, that picture has already been posted here on 19/Sep/17. Also i think Courtois is moore like 199cm. Plus we dont see their footwear, Courtois is s bit closer to the camera, etc.. It's just a picture among many others, where A.J. doesn't look quite 198cm. Doesn't prove anything.

@Micky, A.J. is an inch taller than Hughie

If A.J. is 198cm, then Hughie is 195,5cm. If A.J. is 197,5cm, then Hughie is 195cm. Parker is around 190cm. I struggle to see him 191cm. He looks moore than just 2cm shorter than Eddie Hearn, who is 193cm. Eddie is easily 3cm taller than Tony Bellew, who looks at least the same height as Parker does.
Gman said on 27/Mar/18
Rob: What's your opinion on Joseph Parker's height? I'm thinking 6'2.5 based on the face off at the press conference yesterday.
Editor Rob
Parker doesn't really look 6ft 4, but 6ft 3 is quite possible.
Bazza said on 27/Mar/18
In the face off today AJ looks a good 3 inches over Parker.i put Parker at 191 at best not 193 as claimed if AJ is a shade under 6'6
Canson said on 26/Mar/18
Agree with Jason weak 6’6 not under 6’5.5 by much if even

AJ looks 6'5-6'5.90. Under 6'6". Where's Joseph Parker's page? He's going to smash AJ.
Micky said on 22/Mar/18
@Robbe - the photo with Hughie looks more than a flat 2" difference. Hughie at 196 and Parker at 190 - that's the closest I can give it from that photo, a full 6cm.

Rob, did he look more 'imposing' than Tom Hopper?
He does look like someone who would be in the 6'5.75"-6'6" range.

Yes, he looks taller in person comfortably than Tom does....having a relatively 'high' eyelevel for his height helps Anthony.

Good points. It’s hard to see him shorter than maybe 6’5.5 worst case or possibly 6’5.75. It’s a given I think tho that he’s over 6’6” out of bed
Sailing said on 13/Feb/18
Can someone direct me to a picture of him where he looks 6'6 or close to that? I briefly looked at his instagram and there is the photo of him with Clarke being talked about below and one (
Click Here) of him with listed 6'5 Okolie. To me he looks the same.
Christian-6'5 3/8 said on 12/Feb/18
@Robbe
Agreed. Sometimes a person can look way taller or shorter in a pic.
Canson said on 12/Feb/18
Joshua would likely never even dip as far as 6’5 let alone anything under it. He’s not less than 6’5.5. Could be the 6’5.75 like rob has him but prob not a full 6’6”
Robbe said on 12/Feb/18
@miko, yeah, Frazer Clarke must be taller than 192cm. Here with 6'6 listed Vianello
Click Here
So once again, Joshua is very close to 198cm. Maybe hair shorter.
Robbe said on 12/Feb/18
Well, the point was, you can allways find pictures where somebody looks shorter than expected, due to camera angles. Will's picture was just one example of many others. There are plenty of really good pictures to judge Joshua's height, and he appears allways at least 197cm tall. I would't be surprised if he's full 198cm. So really, its pretty pointless to post pictures where he looks noticeable shorter than 197cm. Cause he aint.
Sailing said on 11/Feb/18
@Robbe: I don't think the Haye pic is comparable to the Clarke pic. Haye is standing significantly closer to the camera than Joshua, whereas Clarke is not that much closer to the camera than Joshua is.
miko said on 11/Feb/18
I'm from the same town as Frazer Clarke, he's a full 6'6 (198cm).
I don't know him that well and I've only seem him a few times at local boxing events (he is huge and towers everybody) but in his own words, he's a hair taller than Joshua, which makes sense as Joshua looks 6'5.5 most of the time.
5'11" Flat Barefoot Evening said on 11/Feb/18
Who describes their height as 'imposing'? lol. But I concur Joshua IS 6'6" (Morning height with sneakers on). In the evening in barefoot I reckon he dips JUST under 6'5".
Christian-6'5 3/8 said on 11/Feb/18
@Robbe
The difference in that pic is way more than just 3cm. Haye has a big afro but you can tell by their eyelevel.
Kiwi Lad said on 10/Feb/18
@ Robbe - The angle favors Haye way more in his pic with Joshua than it favors Clarke in his pic with Joshua.
Joshua is much further from the camera than Haye is (Joshua's head is pulled back / upright more, exaggerating this), not to mention haye's afro makes it deceptive. If Joshua crept forward slightly to hayes level I could still see maybe a 3.5inch difference.
187cm / 6'1.5 for haye and 195.5cm / 6'5 ( in this pic at least)
In the Clarke pic.. similar situation, but harder to make a case for Joshua being much over 194-195cm. Clarke is closer to the camera, however, if Joshua crept forward to his level, I could still only see Joshua edging him by like an inch max. (maybe 2-2.5cm)
Robbe said on 10/Feb/18
@Will, don't worry about it, it's just the camera angle. Just like in the pic below. David Haye is 187cm, so Joshua is 190cm?

@Kiwi Lad: he actually Looks his close to his listed height of 6’5.75. In a worst case maybe he dips to 6’5.5. I know that Rob said he looked taller walking than Rick Fox did but he may actually be by a hair and prob had more footwear along with the fact that he’s built differently than Fox meaning has proportions of someone 6’6”ish longer legs etc

If Joshua is about 6'5 ( Which is what he looks with Rob- with a footwear Advantage no less) Parker is about 6'2.75. Joshua looks nearly 3" Taller than Parker in most of their Pictures.
6'4" Is pretty laughable for parker.
He is lucky to get 6'2-3/4".
highlifts said on 5/Feb/18
I was stood behind Hughie fury in a queue last week, he was not as tall as I expected ? thought he would tower over me@ 180cm, seemed no more than 6ft3 but then again I'm not a great judge of heights.
Reece said on 3/Feb/18
Parker was wearing shoes that give a little height advantage maybe. AJ wears trainers mostly. Parker could have been in dresser shoes.
Kiwi Lad said on 3/Feb/18
Haye is imo 187'ish. Makes parker 190max. maybe 189.5 (lets say 6'2.75ish) . Joshua maybe seemed max 2.5inchs taller max, making Joshua what ? 6'5.25 ? Doesn't seems outrageous. ( all speculation / theory tho. who knows that the footwear situation was)
even said on 25/Jan/18
perfect listing just perfect
Will said on 19/Jan/18
Let’s start by saying Joseph Parker isn’t a true 6’4. When I look at boxers, I look at them not barefoot, but in boxing boots because that’s what they perform in. So on a fight night standing in the ring with boxing boots, I’d say Parker is 6’2.75-6’3. Joshua, with boxing boots is probably 6’5.5
Robbe said on 19/Jan/18
The difference between A.J. vs Parker is bigger than Hughie vs Parker. A.J. is 3in taller, Hughie only 2in taller.

Scott said on 18/Jan/18
The height difference in the face off between Parker and Joshua looked basically identical to that of Hughie Fury and Parker.
Therefore I'd say Parker is just over 6'3. Which seems about right from photos of him in the gym with David Haye where he looked about and inch and a half taller.
Robbe said on 17/Jan/18
Easily 3in taller than Parker in the face-off. Parker was in dress shoes, and Joshua in sneakers. So Parker is around 6'2.5".
Editor Rob
Around 6ft 3 might be possible for Parker, though I haven't looked that much at him really.
Big T said on 16/Jan/18
How tall do you reckon Joseph Parker looked in the face-off? I'd say a good 6'3", maybe a fraction more.
I reckon the pics showing Parker looking shorter/same height as Haye and Bellew were a bit deceiving.

I went to his instagram and there are pictures with Djokovic and Logan Paul that make me think he is shorter than listed.
With Djokovic, who is listed at 6'1.5:
Click Here We can't see footwear, but to me, Joshua looks only 3.5 inches taller.
The picture with Logan Paul, also listed at 6'1.5, is very strange.
Click Here Even if you take account for Joshua's bad posture, I think Joshua looks less than 3 inches taller. Perhaps Logan Paul is underlisted, but surely not by more than an inch.
In the picture of him posted below with Zlatan and Bellew, he does look 6'6 compared to Zlatan, but he looks about 6'5 compared to Bellew (Accounting for Joshua wearing socks, not shoes). So I don't know what to make of that picture.
My guess is that he's 6'5, dipping to 6'4.75 at the very end of the day, but I'm not confident.

That guy Musternak must be taller than 183cm. That would make Bellew/Haye/Parker only 185-186cm. He seems to be little closer to the camera, or he is wearing lifts. That would explain the difference. Bellew should be at least 2in taller than Masternak.

it's really wee bits we are talking about, IMHO I'd guess Ibrahimovic at 6'4" or 193/193.5cm Joshua 6'5" 195/196cm Bellew 6'1'/6'1.75 tops 185/187cm
Again Ibrahimovic is not standing straight and nobody really knows how thick Joshua's socks really are LOL
Bazza said on 7/Nov/17
@Joe - If Bellew is no more than 6'1 then that makes Haye around 6' flat or less, which is ridiculous. Bellew is 189-190. Joshua is at least 6'5.5 at worst, so taller than Ibra who is very likely somewhere around 6'4.5, not the full 6'5.
Canson said on 6/Nov/17
@Steve: sometimes it can. But an example of where it can make someone shorter is with Dwight Howard and Hakeem. Hakeem isn’t any taller than Howard is in reality yet he looks taller in this pic

Steve said on 6/Nov/17
@Joe I think you win the award for worst comment so far...
Claiming that Tony Bellew is 6’1 (with no evidence) lol.. I’ve never seen him looking any less than a solid 6’2 and he almost always looks 6’2.5 as per his listing... There’s more chance of him being a very weak 6’3 than there is of him being 6’1.
Joshua is standing about 1.5inch taller than Ibrahimovic in that photo, so when you factor in the 1inch shoe advantage Ibra has then we’re talking 2.5inch that Joshua has over him... Ibrahimovic is obviously not standing with such poor posture that he’s losing 2.5 inches... come on....
Obviously Ibra could be standing straighter, but it would give him an extra 1inch maybe 1.5inch at most, not 2.5 inches.
Having said that, I’d say Joshua’s posture isn’t 100% either. It’s good, but he could probably gain another 0.25-0.5 inch if he really stretched out for that photo.
Joe said on 5/Nov/17
Ibrahimovic is not standing straight in that picture, he'd be taller than Joshua. Sneakers might give him a full inch but not two, he's not wearing stilettos LOL Joshua on the other hand stands fully straight.
Bellew is clearly not 6'2.5" more like 6'1" at most, and he's ridiculous in that outfit next to those guys.
Bottom line I don't see Joshua taller than Ibrahimovic.
Steve said on 3/Nov/17
@canson remember, though, Ibra being stood more forward gives HIM the advantage, so with 1inch shoe advantage AND standing closer to camera AJ is doing well to still be a good inch taller
Canson said on 1/Nov/17
@the dude: I doubt Ibrahimovic is in two inch sneaks. But he is standing further forward than AJ is so the diff is more pronounced because of it. It still makes AJ taller either way but not the 1.5” it appears. I’d say the diff may be under an inch if he weren’t forward a bit. AJ could be a full 6’6” max but I say 197.5 no less
Canson said on 1/Nov/17
@Steve: my apologies. You’re right. I don’t doubt ibra being 194-194.5 never really did. I just see Joshua as 197 range more so than 6’6” full. Using the chart with rob I had him there. You’re right with ibra it’s how he appears. If he stood back further they’d be more inline with one another to better gauge it tho
Steve said on 31/Oct/17
@Canson you can see shoes in the photo I posted!!?? Scroll down all the way and you’ll see... Zlatan is wearing red sneakers, Joshua is in socks, and bellew is in black dress shoes... I don’t think it’s proof that Ibra is smaller than 6ft4.5 because he’s a very tall guy and based on pics of him with other people he does always look around 6ft4-6ft5, I do think it’s just proof that AJ is 6’6 at worst because he’s still considerably taller than Zlatan without wearing shoes
Canson said on 30/Oct/17
@Reece: in reality measuring your lowest is typically done after about 7 hours. It’s minimal after that. And the reason rob and others say that is because it’s your normal height for the day. I can see a guy AJ’s size losing maybe an inch. He may be 6’6.75 out of bed 6’5.75 at night or at best it’s 3/4”
Canson said on 30/Oct/17
He’s taller than Klitschko. Rob practically has him right where he would be ordinarily (within 1/2cm). He’s not standing straight neither is rob. He would hit a flat 6’6” on the chart if not a hair over like 198.3 possibly. If 198-198.3 you take the footwear advantage into account that takes him to 197-97.5 range
Faza said on 30/Oct/17

@Steve. I would change you anything less than 6-6 to 6-5 1/2. It also depends on what time of day. He could be 6-6 mid day but most people on this site want the height at there lowest. He often looks shorter than Wlad and of course camera angles skew things

Steve i think you are right. Joshua is at least 1inch taller than Zlatan without shoes and i think if Zlatan would wear no shoes Joshua would be taller by at least 2inches. But it shows in my opinion that Zlatan is no more than 6ft5 out of bed but if Zlatan is that height out of bed Joshua is for sure 6ft7 out of bed. But Rob is listing on his site people taller if he likes them as a Klitschko fan Joshua gets a downgrade by Rob and Zlatan as much as even possible so if Rob does not want to lose any credibility he has to change one of his listings because your link shows one of them is wrong.
Steve said on 29/Oct/17
I was actually being pretty conservative in my last comment. Ibra could easily be standing at 6ft5.5 there if his sneakers are 1inch which most sneakers of that style are. And Joshua may even have 1.5inches on him... This would make Joshua 6ft7, which I don’t believe he is, but it should at least prove that he can’t be anything less than 6’6
Steve said on 29/Oct/17
Just seen this photo which Tony Bellew has posted on his Instagram and I don’t see how anyone can argue that AJ is any less than 6’6 after this.
Click Here
We have 6’4.5 Zlatan Ibrahimovic on the left, who’s standing at minimum 6’5 in the trainers he’s wearing. And we have 6’2.5 Tony Bellew on the right, who’s standing at about 6’3 in his shoes.
Joshua is wearing no shoes and yet is still at least 1inch taller than Zlatan at 6ft5 and has a good few inches on Bellew.
If anything I can see AJ being more like 6ft6.25 than 6ft5.75...
How people can argue anything less than 6ft6 for AJ baffles me

Enough comparing to other sport stars they all love inflating their height

@berta
joshua was more than 3 cm taller than ibra because joshua was barefoot while ibrahimovic had 2 inch sneakers
berta said on 29/Oct/17
3 cm taller than zlatan ibrahimovic yesterday
Canson said on 28/Oct/17
@Robbe: yea he looks max 200 with Wlad. Wlad looks 196cm max and AJ looks 197ish
Robbe said on 28/Oct/17
@faza, Dillian Whyte looks 6ft2 with Helenius

@ROb
How tall do you think Carlos Takam ( AJ next oponnent) looks?

Editor Rob
might be 186cm
Sixseven said on 22/Oct/17
He is 196 cm.
Robbe said on 22/Oct/17
Vitali has claimed both 6'6 and 6'7 so it's possible he is 6'6.5. Honestly, 6'6.5 Helenius looks taller than Vitali, standing next to Wlad/Joshua.
Canson said on 20/Oct/17
@Robbe: I think Vitali is a weak 6’7” honestly. Or shall I say could be a weak 6’7”. I can’t see him over 200cm back to back with Wlad honestly. 6’6.75. Maybe 6’6.5. His 6’7” is a height earlier in the day more than likely.
Steve said on 20/Oct/17
@Will Charles Martin is 6’5 not 6’4 and Joshua had a good inch on him at least ...
Canson said on 18/Oct/17
197 cm range weak 6’6.
Faza said on 17/Oct/17
Doubt eddie is under 6ft4 but the difference between 6ft3.75 and 6ft4.25 is nothing really i would have said 6ft4 range for him but who knows so how tall would you put dillian whyte 6ft2 looks taller than that
Junior said on 14/Oct/17
Fractionally under 6'6 is accurate.
Scott said on 10/Oct/17
Met Eddie Hearn a few times, he's not quite 6'4 IMO. Maybe 6'3.75.
6'5 is him with his promotion hat on!
faza said on 30/Sep/17
Yh I met Eddie up close in person, I would be very surprised if he is under 6'4 he is very tall and actually pretty big built a lot bigger than I thought, Aj seems pretty relaxed when he stands going off with wlad etc pictures side by side can be deceiving because of that, I think the listing on here for Joshua is fair a weak 6'6 anything under 6'5.5 I wouldn't be sure of it.
Robbe said on 30/Sep/17
A.J. doesn't look much taller than 6'4 Chris Malling
Click Here
On the other hand A.J. doesn't look much shorter than 6'7 Vitali Klitshko who is closer to the camera, and stands very tall while Anthony's posture is very bad there. Still, Vitali edges A.J. only by an inch. Standing tall there, A.J. would be very close to Vitali's height
Click Here
Eddie Hearn's height is a bit mystery, sometimes he looks noticeable shorter than A.J. and sometimes they are very close. Eddie though wearing dressing shoes, as usual, so he has slight shoe anvantage
Click Here
Eddie claims 6'5 but it might be his shoe height. I struggle to see him under 6'4 though. Very tall guy.
faza said on 29/Sep/17
Eddie Hearn is a very tall guy met him in person he does claim 6'5 not sure but he must be close maybe 6'4 range looking at him next to Anthony Joshua maybe he is 194cm I dont buy Joshua being 6'5 flat no chance he is taller than Lennox Lewis, 197- 198cm seems fair, Charles Martin was 6'5 not 6'4 will, Joshua was listed 1 Inch taller tho Joshua was at least an inch shorter than the 6'7 Dominic Brezeale.
The Heights of Joseph Parker and Dillian Whyte look more interesting both guys are down as 6'4 but look around 6'3 imo could see both Parker and Whyte are around 190cm similar to Tony Bellew
Mansoor sharafat said on 29/Sep/17
I say solid 6'6.5"
Canson said on 29/Sep/17
Same size as Gronkowski 197cm
Canson said on 27/Sep/17
@Will: he's def at least 6'5" range. I doubt rob would underestimate him that much. Maybe on a fluke Rob is off by 0.5" and he's closer to 6'5" like Wlad's listed height and Wlad is a bit less but they look awfully close in height Joshua only slightly taller like a cm or 1.5 cm
Editor Rob
if Joshua had air max that were near 1.3 inch then I'd say he was 6ft 5.5, but I went with his air max being around 1 inch...
Will said on 26/Sep/17
Anthony Joshua is 6'5. In his shakedown with the 6'4 Charles Martin, there was very little, if any difference. He can't be closer to 6'6
Canson said on 25/Sep/17
@Ziggie: because Conan claims shoes wlad doesn't. But I agree on everything else that Conan inflates everyone likely he isn't above 6'3" barefoot
Ziggie said on 24/Sep/17
Joshua doesn't look anything over 6'5" IMHO
Ziggie said on 24/Sep/17
@Canson
I didnt mean to hurt anyone's ego, Conan is always been overestimating things :) including his own height. I didn't see that part though, all I saw is the youtube video where Conan mentioned Wladmir is taller than he is to which Klitschko replied, nah I'm as tall as you, then Conan insisted Wlad he's taller so Wlad says: ok, I'm 6'5" as a bit of a spoof
Robbe said on 23/Sep/17
Wlad and A.J. are both quite a mystery, they look much taller than a legit 6'5 guys, but on the other hand, both look noticeale shorter than a legit 6'6.5 guys like Helenius, Wilder, and Courtois. It's really about centimeters what counts!
cober said on 21/Sep/17
196.0 cm for maximum
Canson said on 20/Sep/17
@ziggie: but after Conan called him 6'6/6'7
184guy said on 20/Sep/17
@ROBBE
Courtois hás the hair advantage and is closer to the câmera
CNROM89 said on 20/Sep/17
Joshua is 197 cm i think. A bit taller than Wlad. 1-2 cm shorter than Courtois.
faza said on 20/Sep/17
Joshua Pic with Helenius is not accurate at all to go off did you see his feet they were spread wide apart he was easily dropping some height there which made him look at least 4cm shorter when is reality he might be 2cm shorter ,Helenius does look a legit 6'6.5 guy, I doubt Joshua is under 197cm range say the very lowest I could see is 6'5.5 based on everything I have seen of him look at him with Lennox Lewis and Wlad, Look at him next to Molina and Whyte and now Pulev who I think must be 6'3.5- 6'4 range?
Certain pictures are hard to go off, That Courtois one for example two similar height guys, But what about footwear etc.
Davis195//6'5 said on 19/Sep/17
@Jordan87 Joshua isn't standing tall. If he stood straight and stretched out as much as possible, he'd be 6'6 in my opinion
Reece said on 19/Sep/17
@Scott. The Camera angle was weird. At times AJ looks taller and so does Wlad sometimes is taller. I think both are at least 197cm.
