    I think they are exaggerating and far shorter. I have a poster that said Tyson was just half inch under 6ft and the people that I know that have met him say he is only 5ft 9inches.

    Can't answer that. I listed Rocky at 5'11. Not Tyson.

    I think Rocky was even shorter 5 foot 8inches in real life.

    I went up and shook Trinidad's hand at a concert. But he had just gotten up out of his seat and there was quite a crowd... so I couldn't say much about his height. It does surprise me to learn he's 5'11".
