Like Derek said we aren't going to be able to tell the difference from 6'4 1/2 to 6'4 3/4 to 6'5 based on a picture unless we were there up close we could maybe tell the difference.
Anonymous said on 28/Oct/07
he looks 6'2 or 6'3 by slouching. But he looks around 6'3 or 6'4 range.
sweetchari said on 26/Oct/07
Sorry you guys got this one wrong, he is clearly 6'5". He jus has bad posture. In this picture he is slumping a lot.
Austrian said on 26/Oct/07

Glenn, his saying he was 6'3" may just be a reflection of the modesty and lack of height consciousness many British celebs disply - we've seen this before
(
Jude Law saying he's 5'9"!). I always thought in the ring he appeared taller still than the 6'4" boxing sources have generally listed him as being. Based on this photo there's no argument - Lennox Lewis is 6'5". And while we're at it, look at that gigantic fist. Mike Tyson got caught and knocked out a few times, but the methodically savage beating he endured at the hands of Lennox Lewis was unprecedented.

i think he is 6'5 or 6'6 because by looking at this pic he is 6'3 standing straight beside bob

He looks right around 6'5" flat next to Glenn, 6'5.5" Vince Carter and 7'1" Shaq
glenn said on 23/Oct/07
exactly derek.
Derek said on 23/Oct/07
Sure looks 6'5" with Glenn. Even if he is a tad under, it's impossible to tell 6'4 1/2" or 6'4 3/4" and 6'5".
lillo thomas said on 23/Oct/07
he sure look between 6-4.5 and 6-5 in that pic above
Victorian said on 23/Oct/07
Wow, I always took him for a 6-4 guy. But he looks like a giant in this pic! 195 cm at the least, going by glenn's photo.
Lynn said on 23/Oct/07
He is a real big tall man.
I suppose the ground is not flat. Anyway look at the shouders difference. Near Glenn he seems a 2 meter man.
Antin said on 23/Oct/07
"In the photograph Lewis looks 6'7'' next to 5'8'' Glenn." LOL He looks 194-195 cm.

Shaq has the same amount of height on Lewis as Lewis does on Glenn.

''That was not his measured height i remember it was Jason, who estimate that Lennox Lewis measured height was 6'4 3/4".''
He was sometimes listed at 6'4 3/4'' in his older fights ... and that was probably in 1/4'' or so boxing shoes.
Jason said on 22/Oct/07
Oh ... he said 6'4''-6'5''.
derek said on 22/Oct/07
so lewis is/was never the 6'6 he was billed at? I always thought he looked more this height when he fought tyson who clearly isn't 5'11.
Jason said on 22/Oct/07
Glenn said he looked 6'4'' on the Tyson page. I've always thought he's 6'4 1/2'' ... but what's a quarter inch!
Daniel said on 22/Oct/07
In the photograph Lewis looks 6'7'' next to 5'8'' Glenn
Alex said on 22/Oct/07
Shaq did dwarf Lewis. Well to me 7 inches is a dwarf. But he may be a full 6'5. 6'4.5 at the very least he is.
Anonymous said on 22/Oct/07
Vince is 6'6.75" in shoes and leaning. Vince is taller but not by much. Shaq is leaning so much the picture doesn't mean much.
Vegas said on 22/Oct/07
vince has 1.5" basketball boots on there and lewis we don't know footwear, could be wearing converse. Carter and lewis are the exact same height there.
lennox and shaq

I'm sure 7'1" Shaq did dwarf him because Shaq dwarfs 6'5" Kobe and 6'7.25" Magic Johnson.
Click HereLennox Lewis and 6'5.5" Vince Carter
Vince measured 6'5.5" barefoot at the 1998 NBA pre-draft camp.
Click HereVince is leaning a bit but he is barely taller than Lennox. 6'4.75" seems right.
Catsman said on 22/Oct/07
Saga - he is that big. He has been in the ring so many times with other boxers that it is pretty clear. Frank Bruno was about 6-3. Your George Hertzberg pic has him exactly a head taller than Rob. Lewis is almost a head taller than Glenn in the picture but he's obviously in a relaxed pose looking down at the camera. Given that his head in probably 9 to 10 inches long, I'd say just under 6-5 is right.
Vegas said on 22/Oct/07
i think you can give him the full 6'5 rob :) even shaq didnt dwarf lewis.
huge guy and not a bad boxer either
paul said on 22/Oct/07
nice picture too i wouldnt wanna mess with him!
paul said on 22/Oct/07
Id give him 6'4.5 just to be precise!
Alex said on 22/Oct/07
Lewis looks 6'4.5 at least. Close enough to 6'5 to call it 6'5.
Kevin Durant said on 22/Oct/07
I think he is a legit 6'5" in this picture, and Austrian is right he is not shorter compare to the Klitschko Brothers.
[Editor Rob: I don't think the 6ft 4 and 3/4 would have been reported out of thin air, I can believe that's his measured height.]
That was not his measured height i remember it was Jason, who estimate that Lennox Lewis measured height was 6'4 3/4".
saga said on 22/Oct/07
hey glenn, what did you think when you met him? Taking into account he has ground advantage and he's slightly closer to the camera i don't think he looks 6'4.75 at all.
In my opinion he looks just over 6'3, possibly 6'3.5" but i can't see him over 6'4 here.
Just for comparison:

i think hes 6'5 legit
just give him the 6'5 :)
he never looked shorter beside any of the Klitschkos either

Looks taller than 1`95 in that pic, at least compared with other who have pics next to Glen
aerotive said on 22/Oct/07
Looks at least 6'5" in the pic with Gleen above.
John T said on 15/May/07
I saw Lennox once in Vegas. Looked more or less about 6'5" to me. Maybe just a hair under that, but hardly enough to be quibbling like this over. The 6'5" listing looked about right to me.
Brad said on 20/Mar/07
She came up to my armpits in heels, she's really small. Looks fantastic for her age, probably more so than any actress I've ever met.
boxingfan said on 25/Oct/06
Jason - Holyfield is not 6ft - definitely 6'2" - measured on numerous occasions.
I think lewis is a shade under 6'5"
Why would Evander lie about his height? Most of the smaller heavies are (HOly, Byrd etc) are always bragging about how they hold their own with much bigger guys - if anything downplaying their own size.
Fan said on 30/Apr/06
I thought she was shorter
Glenn said on 22/Apr/06
I dont know how I missed that one.oops.thanks!
