    I think Canelo is 5'7. It's not abnormal to have people that height and build at all. In fact its more abnormal to have people built like Callum Smith.

    Agreed. Either way, he's a very good fighter and knows how to use his height.

    Well Floyd is 5'8 and Canelo looked an inch shorter than Floyd. So yeah, 5'7 seems accurate. At BEST 5'8.

    TBF, I don't actually think Floyd was 5'8, and I definitely don't buy that he has a reach of 72".

    Floyd is pretty tall. He's been filmed standing next to Hagler, and was around the same height.

    He know Hagler was about 5'8, so yeah, 5'8 seems accurate for Floyd.

    I'm the same height as you, BTW. I'm 5'10. But im sure I've got a helluva lot more weight on me.

    I always thought Monzon looked closer to 6'0 than the 5'11 he was listed. Maybe even verging on 6'1. Either way, he looked taller than 5'11.

    Stinger tried to tout Monzon as 6'2, but that's a stretch.

    Old Ass Pic of REED and Floyd - The Dela vs. Floyd Press Tour Stopped in Dallas to Promote...

    REED's a Legit 5'10...Floyd's a Legit 5'8...

    Errol Spence is a Legit 5'9...

    Ray Leonard was listed at 5'10, but I think he's closer to 5'9.

    Robinson looked a legit 5'11 imo.

    BLESSED to Have Stood Next to or Close to a FEW Name Fighters Over the Years...

    Roberto Duran is Short; More Like 5'6 than the Normally Listed 5'7...Manny Pacquiao's Even SHORTER, 5'5ish...In EVERY Sense of the Term, Manny Pacquiao is a SMALL MAN...Seeing Him in Person Makes You APPRECIATE his Exploits That Much MORE...

    Mikey Garcia's Short Too...In the Same Vicinity as Duran and Pacquiao...

    DeLa's Taller Than REED; 5'11ish...Though Identical Twins, Jermall Charlo's TALLER Than Jermell Charlo...Jermall's a LEGIT 6ft or Taller...Jermell's About DeLa's Height...Fernando Vargas is Errol Spence's Height or a SMIDGE Shorter...

    Eddie Hearn's TALL...6'3 Minimum, Maybe TALLER...

    Important to note that people do shrink with age.

    I believe you that Duran is 5'6 now. In his youth, he looked closer to 5'7.
