For Tyson I will go with 5 11 1/2. I remember Larry Merchant on a David Tua fight also stated ...both guys are a bit taller- not shorter than listed...and said in fact when Tyson stands upright he is indeed about 5 11 1/2.


And when I saw him at the IBHOF- I was (unknowingly) standing next to the SUV they wanted to escort him- but the guy driving him in the little golf cart- messed up- thought he was going to the hotel next door...when they got it right & swung back around...he was about 2 feet away from me. So I would agree he is indeed at least 5 '11 1/2 close to my height.
