6ft1 is undercutting him. Overall 6ft2 is a good shout.
Moke said on 24/Apr/16
He certainly has the body of a 6'2er, but his head is not very long.
The other guy is listed 6'5 on boxrec, if it's with or without shoes - who knows.

Andrea said on 19/Apr/16
Considering he doesn't even look the full 6'2 with 0.5 inches more shoes, i doubt he can be even a mm over 6'2... Well, maybe out of bed...
Damian said on 18/Apr/16
6ft2.25 is possibility
Peter 180cm said on 17/Apr/16
I doubt he's over 186,even with shoe advantage he looks more 187 than 188 range,not to mention the huge hair he sports...So 186/187cm for this guy,weak 6'2 certainly not the 6'3 he was listed at.
yos said on 17/Apr/16
I wouldn't go anything below 6'2" personally.
Haye- 6'2"
AJ- 6'6"
Klitschko- 6'6 1/2"
Fury 6'8 1/2"
Price 6'8 1/2"
Wilder 6'7"
Moke said on 15/Apr/16
So Rob 6ft 1.75 to me seems more accurate then..
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 11/Apr/16
Well Rob, then shouldn't he be listed slightly under this then?
Editor Rob
well 6ft 1.75 is possible.
Johno said on 8/Apr/16
Yeh Rob, although he looked under 6'0 with that 5'6 man, i put it down to picture distortion. I believe Haye looks 1-inch taller than Froch and Froch is 6'0 himself.
Moke said on 4/Apr/16
@ Ice
Wladimir Klitschko was 39, Fury 27. Fury is a smart fighter, he can box, not a brawler like many of Klitschkos former opponents. Size is not very important in boxing and in life in general, it seems to be in your head, though.
Johno said on 3/Apr/16
Rob i don't understand why Haye looks the height he does to that 5'6-ranged man you posted, he does not even look to have 5 inches on him.
Editor Rob
it's just an example to emphasise - I'm getting photos for this site and trying as best I can under the circumstances to show the difference.
It's not always easy and sometimes you can't do anything and height difference can get reduced or emphasised a bit...in Haye's case I could match posture, make sure my position was right and ask photographer to do vertical (portrait).
mrtguy said on 31/Mar/16

Here's a short video of David with Lennox Lewis.
Click Here
Looks to be about 3" difference.
yos said on 19/Feb/16
Peter, Wlad wears lifts in the build up to the majority of his bouts. The only fight that Wlad appeared to not be wearing lifts in during the build up was against Mariusz Wach. Also wouldn't surprise me if Wlad is on the upper side of 6'6" as he has looked bigger than genuine 6'5" men in Tony Thompson and Lennox Lewis.
Peter Jones said on 18/Feb/16
Wladimir Klitschko is quoted officially as 6'6", but says he's 6'5". So David Haye is clearly 5'10", as he only came up to the bridge of Klitschko's nose, in the many photos of them, when they faced each other before their fight. There are such a lot of photos of them together, including ones facing the camera, there can be no doubt about it, surely.
Emil is obviously wrong in claiming that Haye markets himself as 'the little guy' given that he went out of his way in every TV interview he did before that fight to tell the interviewer that he was 6'3".
Moke said on 4/Feb/16
@ Johno
I'd vouch for him to not be under 6'1... ;) 186/187- around that mark.
Johno said on 3/Feb/16
Haye is an good example of how a high eyeline and small forehead will fool alot of people into believing your taller then someone of a lower eyeline but same height.
He would be under 6'1 taking account of footwear advantage; 6'1 max.
Ice said on 3/Feb/16
He was way too small to fight
Tyson Fury . Klitschko is a lot taller than Haye , and still couldnt deal with the size of Fury ..
yos said on 31/Jan/16
Paul, whilst i do believe that Fury isn't the full 206cm range that he claims to be, 6'7" is a little harsh. I reckon his posture gives away an inch or so in height, in addition with the fact you're probably concluding hes 6'7" with how he looked alongside Wlad, who IMO was wearing lifts that made him around 6'7"-6'8". Also looks a good inch+ taller than Deontay Wilder.
Paul said on 30/Jan/16
yos said on27/Jan/16
Most of your predictions I agree with, except
Tyson Fury is closer to 6'7" rather than 6'8.5"
--------
Haye easily looks 6'2.5" with Rob, but only because of his thicker shoes and his afro. I'd put him at 6'1.5"-6'1.75"
ervis said on 29/Jan/16
his height is a mystery,he looks barely an inch taller than carl froch who i think dips under 6 foot at night,looks almost the same height as derek chisora, looks not over 6 foot with audley harrison and wladimir klitscho but here he looks like a solid 6 foot 2.
i personally think hes between 6'1" and 6'2"
yos said on 27/Jan/16
These are all my predicted height figures for the heavyweights:
David Haye - 6'2"

Wladimir Klitschko - 6'6"

Jim Hopper said on 23/Jan/16

Emil 183 cm said on 22/Jan/16
Haye has always looked smaller than he really is at his weigh-ins because he tries to market himself as the little man. He's no less than 6'1.5
Danny 1.98m said on 20/Jan/16
De mori had trainers on and haye didn't in the staredown. That's why they're similar. Haye does look near 6"3 most of the time.
Nick said on 16/Jan/16
Haye's head comes to 196cm Audley's nose tip
Click Here so according to that I'd say 183cm is Haye's actual height however here
Click Here next to 195cm Lennox Lewis seem to look 10cm shorter so maybe 185cm no more.

@Rob
You sure that's just a 0.5 inch shoe difference? Looks a bit more to me like 0.6-0.65
Haye looks 6'1.5 to me +/- 1/4 inch honestly.
6'2 is a bit generous in My book
Editor Rob
some nike air max can give 1.3 inch. I couldn't say if it was that big, so thought it was nearer 1.1 inch.
Emil 183 cm said on 27/Dec/15
The Exorcist said on 5/Dec/15
David is looking a lot heavier than he used to be. It might not be a good move to come back to boxing at his current size as his strongest attribute was speed.
About his height: Even though they're both losing height in the photo above, Rob will be below his eyes.
Bro, Haye has always been huge... standing next to Rob (whos fairly big him self ;) ) doesnt really make him look any smaller
Johno said on 24/Dec/15
In that shot, both parties are leaning somewhat and knowing that Haye has a high eyeline and small forehead, it gives an illusion that he is taller then he really is.
Take his mammoth 0.5 inch footwear advantage into account, he would be lucky to have 4.5 inches over Rob.
I am going to give him a very fair height estimate of 6'1. Take that above picture apart step-by-step and you will derive a height ceiling of 6'1. He is not even an inch taller then a 6'0 Froch.
Haye 6'1
movieguy said on 22/Dec/15
I did write that he looked big on Catchphrase. Since then I've read a Boxing News article about boxer's heights which says that they are often inflated. The author states that he saw Haye next to a 6'3'' colleague and Haye was more than an inch shorter. Haye is estimated at 6' 1.5'' by this guy and I think this probably correct. In this article it states that Muhammad Ali was 6' 2.5'' at one point in his career but then suddenly jumped to 6'3''. The earlier and lesser height is probably the correct one according to the author. Apparently though Joe Calzaghe was a genuine 6ft guy although he was given as 5'11'' for much of his career. Calzaghe himself had no idea where the 5'11'' height came from. Also Lennox Lewis was bang on 6'5'' although often given as 6' 4 3/4''. Carl Froch said himself that he was slightly under 6'1''. Loved this article if your a height fan than worth searching for.

6'1 at the most. So many boxers exaggerating their height and Haye really doesn't look like a tall man. Looked about the same height as chisora sometimes bigger sometimes smaller awell. Blocked me on twitter for calling him out on claiming 6'3 aswell so must have hit a nerve. Think the height to compare to is klits as he is a genuine 6'6 and he looked at least 5 inches taller if not more
CD said on 2/Dec/15
Andrea, I think David looks closer to the height of Challenger 5
Click Here This would make more sense with how Rob thinks he looked in person (over 6ft 2 but not 6ft 3). Actually challenger 5 and 8 (the plumber) don't look hugely different - the average user guess was less than a 1/4 inch between the two challengers...
Rob, would you say Haye was around the height of challenger no. 5? 6ft 2.25ish? I know it's hard to compare to him or the plumber with his hairstyle!
Editor Rob
A guy who was with me in the queue - I watched him with haye - and this guy is close to 6ft 4 if he stands up tall, haye was no less than 6ft 2 with him and their sneakers were much nearer...
but then, with all that hair maybe that can add to an illusion, with his flatter hair his eyeleve isn't that low or anything.
challenger 5's height alters, he does night shifts so I caught him at his 'not too long out of bed' height.
Andrea said on 2/Dec/15
CD, here is a ROUGH comparison with the 6'1.5 plumber:
Click Here
I wouldn't say David is any taller than him, so let's say he's near 6'1.5 in the photo... Take away the 0.5 inches advantage and you have somewhere around 6'1 flat, at least IN THE PHOTO!
That's why i said he looks 6'1.5 at best (to be fair, he doesn't even look that tall with Rob)...

6'2 is actually quite average for a Pro heavyweight. At least slightly under
CD said on 1/Dec/15
Looks 6 inches taller than Rob, a solid 6ft 2, minus the footwear and he could be a weak 6ft 2. I wouldn't say 6ft 1.5 at most, I'd say 6ft 1.5 at the least.

184.3cm (Night) said on 29/Nov/15
I remember seeing alot of pics with David and Dwayne Johnson the last couple of years. Sometimes David is taller, sometimes Dwayne. It does seem that Johnson has lost height and is in that 6'2 range as well based on this.
In that video at 4.10 that guy John looks 6' tops, i would have said a weak six footer when he stands side by side with David.
Andrea said on 29/Nov/15
No, there are some athletes who get "officially" measured, but not every listing comes from a measurement! This guy claims 6'3 but he doesn't even look 6'2, why should he be listed at his claim when he's clearly a good inch shorter than that AT LEAST?
DRK said on 28/Nov/15
Why is it every person on this site is given an inch or so less than they clearly state they are? Not everyone lies about their height. He is an athlete and has been measured.

Rob he looks much wider with you compared to others pics I have seen him in.
He certainly ain't massive height wise for a boxer
Andrea said on 28/Nov/15
Connor, you can read above "He has said he was 6ft 3"... You should think twice before you write :)
He does claim 6'3 so, if you consider that he doesn't even look a full 6'2, i call that a "G-claim"!
Rob says he looked over 6'2 but he doesn't look taller than the plumber for some reason, which would make him more 6'1 flat! Now maybe 6'1 flat is a bit too low but i wouldn't call this guy a big 6'2! That also would put Wlad more 6'6 than 6'5 (and he himself said to be 6'5 a lot of times)!
Editor Rob said on 28/Nov/15
From seeing him about that day, I thought he looked over 6ft 2 but not as tall as 6ft 3...take away more footwear I thought he could be 6ft 2. As a side, Haye did tweet this mini clip I took:
Click Here but deleted it...maybe he saw I had him at 6ft 2 on here! ;)
Big C said on 27/Nov/15
Could david be a 6ft 2.5 guy rob?
Big C said on 27/Nov/15
@Andrea someone at 6'1.5 claiming 6'2 is hardly a "G-claim", get serious, rounding up a fraction/half inch isn't that bad infact it really isnt much at all but in reality it would be very difficult to spot the difference between a 6'1.5 guy and a 6'2 guy, Glenn claimed 1.5-2 inches over his real height thats bad, saying 6'2 at 6'1.5 is almost nothing there's nothing wrong with that, when I was 16 I was 5'11.5/182cm and I claimed 6'0 then and no one called me out, as I said it would take a keen eye to spot a half inch difference.
Moke said on 27/Nov/15

Rob, your impression in person was 6'2" as well? He does look somewhere in that general neighborhood in the picture.
Jim Hopper said on 27/Nov/15
Weak 6-2" is possible. 6-1 or just over might be more real due to the hair add on.
Andrea said on 27/Nov/15
Hard to say where his head "ends" with all that hair, but does he really look taller than the 6'1.5 plumber here? Take away the shoe advantage and he looks more a strong 6'1 than 6'2! Something which isn't crazy if you look at him with strong 6'5 Wlad, he can look near 4 inches shorter in some photos! Let's say weak 6'2 to be generous :)
His claim sound like a "G-claim"... 6'1.5 at most!
George said on 27/Nov/15
I'm liking this picture a lot. Proves a few things; he is 6ft2 and the rock is taller so he has to be around 6ft3. Nice. Also Rob could you possibly look into Gennady Golovkin? I've just read an interview with James Degale saying that Golovkin was 5ft8. He's strangely listed as 5ft10 and a half. Also do you think Haye is a legit 6ft2?
The Exorcist said on 27/Nov/15
Great picture, Rob! The full 6'2" is believable.
movieguy said on 27/Nov/15
Looks taller than I expected. 6'2'' if not quite 6'3''. Shows how big Wlad Klitschko really is.
Rory said on 4/Oct/15
Looked at least 6'2 when i saw him in London. With his hair in an afro could easily pull off 6'3. Hes not under 6'2 I promise you that. Id say 6'2.5 personally.
The Exorcist said on 30/Sep/15
I think there's enough pictures out there to show he ain't 6'3". I personally think he's a weak 6'2" (6'1.75"). Deontay Wilder is 6'6" range.

hes not 6'3. Wlad admitted twice to being 6'5 and there was a good 3-4 inches in the stare down center ring, boxers and mma are always iffy in there measurements.

Hugo said on 17/Jan/15
Haye loves a pair of big trainers, I honestly don't think he's 6'2. He's only a 1/4 of an inch taller than Derek Chisora, and I'm being generous. Height listings in boxing are known to be iffy, for example, Sky Sports list Froch at 6'1, and Groves at 5'11. There's not much between them, never 2 inches.
Editor Rob
there's no magic with Froch Groves. Froch says he's 6ft, Groves says he's 5ft 11.
EzioAuditore711 said on 15/Jan/15
Unless Haye is wearing lifts Enzo is less than 6'4''. If Haye is 6'1'' Maccarinelli is 6'2.5''. Maybe Haye is 6'1.5''. In that case I can see Enzo at 6'3''. No way he's 6'4'' though.

I think maybe 6'3.5 is a bit low for Kubrat. He did look an inch shorter than Tony Thompson, who I believe is a genuine 6'5.
EzioAuditore711 said on 9/Jan/15
Or maybe Haye and Pulev are shorter than listed. I think Haye is 6'1'' and Pulev rather 6'3.5'' than 6'4.5''.
Hugo said on 8/Jan/15
I'm an avid boxing fan, and here are my estimations:
Haye - 6'1.25 - Not 6'3 like he claims, was well shorter than 6'4 Enzo Maccarenelli
Fury - 6'8.5
Price - 6'8.5
Wilder - 6'7
Klitschko - 6'6.25
Pulev - 6'4
Chisora - 6'1 - Definitely over 6'0 guys like Supermiddle weights DeGale and Froch, but very, very close in height to David Haye, almost identical.
Joshua - 6'5
Promoter Eddie Hearn is also taller than the average, I've heard him claim he's 6'4-6'5 in interviews. I think 6'4 is more believable personally when compared to:
Tony Bellew 6'2.25-6.25
Nathan Cleverly 6'1.75-6'2
Scott said on 4/Jan/15
Fury looked about an inch taller than 6'7 1/2 Ustinov, who is a little taller than Vitali Klitschko who used to promote him.
Fury is also taller than 6'7 Deontay Wilder and noticeably taller than 6'6 Wladimir Klitschko.
Fury looks the same height as David Price in a recent photo of them together at an airport and also in their amateur fight. Price is billed as 6'8, but confusingly describes himself as 6'9. And looks at least that next to 6'6 Anthony Joshua.
Heights of boxers are almost impossible to pin down, especially the huge guys!
If I had to bet my mortgage on it I'd say Fury is taller than 6'8 and less than 6'9.
Re. Pulev & Haye looking small next to Wlad at the weigh in stare downs, I have often wondered if Wlad wears lifts to intimidate opponents as in the ring there was not much difference vs Pulev but a huge difference at the weigh in?!!
EzioAuditore711 said on 3/Jan/15

@Rob What's "to be fair he did tweet a short clip I made of him, so maybe he should be given 6ft 3 as his reward.]" all about? Did you meet him at a convention? Was he taller than expected? I always said he could look 189 at times but with Vladimir can look at low as 6'1" range unless Vlad really is 6'6 range.
EzioAuditore711 said on 31/Dec/14
Nooooooooooo. But seriously was he much taller than someone like Chisora or Froch? I don't believe it. And would you say that Pulev is 6'4.5''? He looked about 3 inches shorter than Wladimir.
EzioAuditore711 said on 26/Dec/14
He's 6'1'' and wears thick shoes.
Editor Rob
to be fair he did tweet a short clip I made of him, so maybe he should be given 6ft 3 as his reward.
Peter Jones said on 12/Dec/14
In the weigh-in for their fight, Wladimir Klitschko looked at least 7" taller than Haye. If Klitschko is 6'5" - as he says - rather than the 6'6" he's listed, it would make Haye no more than 5'10". He's probably even a shade shorter than that, as the height difference looks more in the shots where Klitschko is not having to look down at Haye for the cameras.
Andrea said on 16/Nov/14
Did he look 6'2 in person, Rob?
I think 6'2 is the most you can argue and there's a good chance he dips a little below it... Maybe similar to a guy like del Rio?
Editor Rob
taller than Del Rio in person...but he had more sneakers.

Strong 6ft2. Boxers get measured. This guy probably measured 6ft3 early morning

Phil Taylor is not 173cm 5'8, I asked how Tall he was on his website and they replied he is 5ft7, And he looks 5'7 max to me not that sure he does not look as high as 5'8 vibram even though he gets listed at that height.
But Phil Taylor official website said 5ft7 so I am guessing that is more reliable?
Editor Rob
yes I'd go with about 5ft 7 for taylor
lee said on 31/Oct/14
Andy Murray looks taller than Haye but Murray might be underbilled on here slighly still a chance he is above 6'2 or 188cm.
Possible Murray is 6'2- 6'2.5 and Haye is a weak 6'2

6'2? Wlad is 4+ inches taller than him and claims 6'5.
Berek said on 20/Jul/14
The image in your link, rockfellas, suggests Haye is about 2 - 2.5" shorter than Lennox Lewis. The picture is misleading because Lewis is clothed, Haye is shirtless, which highlights a discrepancy in shoulder level. Look at the line of the top of their heads. Audley Harrison on the left looks about 1 - 1.5" above Lewis.

Rhonda said on 21/Mar/14
He is certainly 6ft to 6ft1 max. He was same height as Miranda Hart. He had a slight footwear advantage over Hart on Sportrelief, so he would be smaller than Hart. Hart had like a converse type low sports footwear. I think also footballer David Ginola 5ft11-6ft was with them who was a little smaller than both say an inch or inch and half smaller, he was wearing a small heel shoe.

Met him last night. He defo not 6'3. More 6'2 I would peg him at 1m88cm. Took a photo with him and had a cm or so on him. I had shoe advantage in DMs and he had thin soled sneakers on but I'm 6'1 and rarely feel taller than 6'3 guys even with shoes advantage. I defo felt taller than David so there is no way he is over 6,2 to me. I think 1'88 is a good fit.

I think he'd measure a solid 6'3" in sneakers, barefoot I could buy 188-189cm. It's difficult to buy him at a legit 6'3 next to Klitchko who is probably a legit 197cm but at times he can look near it. I doubt he'd be under 6'2 anyway.

Editor Rob
I wouldn't put that much weight on the chart...you only have to go to image search and type in carl froch and david haye to see he's taller than a 6 foot guy. It's always though, 'how much over six foot does David really stand'!
Jack said on 8/Jan/14
The same happens with Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, he is supposed to be 6ft5 but next to Paul Walker who is 6ft1 they're both the same height. Carl Froch said himself that he is only 5ft11-6ft so David Haye is round about 6ft1-6ft2.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 30/Dec/13
I think he's around 6ft2-6ft3. Boxers are measured, aren't they?

Hey guys, I think it's time to end up the discussion about his height. Just take a look at the weigh-in between him an Chisora, both are barefoot and face to face. Chisora is listed at 187cm on boxrec and they are pretty much the same height. So 6'2 for Haye is O.K. but only in the morning, it's definitely his max height.

totally agree with you tashbeast. People don't seem to realize how tall a legit 6'3" guy really is. Maybe 5'11" for him is underestimated, but 6ft-max 6'1" is more realistic for this haye. Nothing more. There was a pic with a height chart behind him, for the valuev fight, and his top head was clearly at the same level of 6ft. With shoes on.................

Yeah this is pretty good height more or less for Haye. I thought he was more 6 foot 1 def not as tall as 6,3 as he stated. So hes max height low 6 foot 2 prob 187cm 6,1.5 most of time I think. He is just not taller than the 6 foot flat guys by enough to be 6,3 you can see that clearly.

In all fairness Vlad generally always looks a full 6'6" but it is possible he was measured at 197cm and rounded down of course. But he's obviously a guy who is a strong 6'5" and pretty much 6'6" at some point in the day. I think his brother does about about 1.5 on him though so if he is 201 rather than 202 then Vlad I think would be about 197 rather than 198.

Agree completely SAK and joe joe. He looked a pretty solid 6'2 on I'm a Celebrity, I doubt he'd be under 187 at lowest. Granted he can look 6'1" next to Klitchko at times. Rob are you going to start a page for Vlad? You've started a few other boxers of late. I'd go with 6'5.5" or 6'5.75 based on what he was supposed to have said, I certainly wouldn't list him at a flat 6'5" as he claimed on the BBC.
Editor Rob
I think he might be modest and be one of those guys who rounds down

Glad to see David Haye up here at last. The most exaggerated 6'3" claiming guy I've ever seen. I would even say he is a little less that 6'2" to be honest.

I don't get the 183-186cm(6ft-6f1) guesses for Haye.
I can't see anything lower then 187cm/6f1.5. 6f2 is acceptable. Most likely, 6f2 is his early midday height. And dips slightly below 6f2 late night.

Arch Stanton said on 19/Jan/13
Rob has also met Eric Bristow and said that he looked a legit 6'2" er. Bristow and Haye were the same height on I'm a Celebrity. Haye could look 6'3" next to Ant and Dec in hiking boots. Trust me, he's not under 6'1". As I said you could argue 6'1.5" or 6'1" range but anything under that is silly.
Trent said on 19/Jan/13
If that chart is right Haye would have to be about 5'10 barefoot:
Click Here
I simply can't see him quite that low. He is taller than Don King, who is still taller than Mike Tyson, who Rob has met so is confirmed 5'10 range. So that chart must be improperly scaled.
I do think he needs quite a downgrade though. I think a 6'0.25 listing would be great for Haye.
Arch Stanton said on 19/Jan/13
Trent, seriously... Even a flat 6'1" would be tight. You could argue 6'1" range for him but he is undoubtedly taller than 6'1". In comparison to Hugo Taylor who claims 6'4" and does look a legit 192cm guy, Haye looked 6'2" flat.
miko said on 18/Jan/13
To be fair Valuev isn't 7'1 so that height chart might be about 2 inches out, but even if it is, Haye is coming up short.
Trent said on 18/Jan/13
@mId: Much as I believe David Haye needs a serious downgrade, if that height chart was correct, minus the shoes Haye would be something like 5'10, which is clearly out the realm of possibility. Most likely whoever made that didn't bother scaling it correctly.
mId said on 18/Jan/13

Wlad is at least a strong 196 cm type like Peyton Manning. He could be more 197 cm + too. 6'5" and change is likely. Haye up to 6'2" is believable but no taller than that.
Arch Stanton said on 17/Jan/13
The lowest I think he could be is 6'1.5" and the tallest I think he could be 6'2.25.
Arch Stanton said on 17/Jan/13
197cm for Wlad would be a good guess.
Arch Stanton said on 17/Jan/13
Honestly he never looked under 6'2 on I'm a Celebrity, same height as Eric Bristow who Rob as met and said he was 6'2" range.
Arch Stanton said on 17/Jan/13
Yey, long time coming. Watched this guy on I'm a Celebrity next to Hugo Taylor, Eric Bristow and Ant and Dec and a flat 6'2" I think is what he is, excellent estimate, but he could be a shade more. But more chance of 189 than 187, I admit at times he can look more 6'1" next to guys like Wlad who is 197-198cm, 195-6 clearly too low.
monaug5 said on 16/Jan/13
Its very clear to see he is no more than 6ft
Lo sgozzatore said on 16/Jan/13
Rob, if he's 6'2, how tall is Wlad? 6'7? He can look anything between 4 and 5 inches taller. Maybe 6'6.5?
Editor Rob
Wlad at 6ft 6 I think is possible, although I'm sure he's claimed a cm value between 6ft 5 and 6 before.
the maximum I'd say haye could be is 6ft 2, with guys like wlad and audley harrison, both near 6ft 6, he certainly can be made to look a weak 6ft 2 at times, although he raises his eyes a lot and probably fools people into seeing him taller. His eye-skull ratio is smallish to begin with.
Steven said on 16/Jan/13
More like 185 i think.
With Wlad:
Click Here This is during the weight in, so they are both wearing socks or barefooted. I think that is too much of a difference.

He's probably a 6'1.5" guy. 186/187.
miko said on 15/Jan/13
I must say Haye looked to be struggling with 6'1 next to Lewis and Harrison.
Rio Ferdinand often looks to have a good 2 inches on him aswell.
His height really does seem to fluctuate anywhere from 6'0 to 6'2.
Personally I'd go with 6'1.25/6'1.5, a little over 6'1 in the day and close to 6'2 out of bed.
mike 181cm said on 15/Jan/13

Don King, now in his 70's, is a strong 5'11 by my estimation (see with Tyson
Click Here).
Click Here Yet, Haye looks possibly an inch taller than him.
Trent said on 15/Jan/13
His 6'3 claim must be an outright lie and even this listing is really generous if you ask me.
Look at him with Lennox Lewis.
Click Here Lewis is 6'4 and 3/4, and Haye comes just above his eyebrows. On a normal guy this would be maybe 3.5 inches difference, but Lennox of course has a much above average head, so I would say it's 4 inches. *And*, the ground is tilted to Lennox' advantage. **And**, as can be seen in the first few seconds of this vid
Click Here Haye was in some
Nike Shox-style shoes, while Lennox was in dress shoes.
So, everything accounted for: ~ 4 inch difference alone, ~ .25 ground advantage, ~ .25 shoe advantage.
We're really looking at Haye being close to 6 foot. I'd say give him a 6'0.25 listing.
Mathew said on 15/Jan/13
Yeah it was obvious he wasn't a real 6'3" next to Wlad.
miko said on 15/Jan/13
Glad you added him Rob.
His 6'3 listing is crazy. Sometimes he can look just 6'1, but 6'2 seems reasonable.
