Interesting comment he made about Mexico as the average height of a man there is 5'6.5", I doubt he at 5'6" actually felt much like a giant.
Elene said on 7/Aug/21
167 cm

@ ChaosControl - Rob could add an “honesty section” and include people from every field, YouTubers, footballers, boxers, cricketers, models, etc!
ChaosControl said on 29/Jul/21
It’s good he’s honest about his height, most boxers aren’t
Nik Ashton said on 28/Jul/21
He would be close to average in Mexico!

Would his son Campbell really be the 5ft 8 I'm seeing him listed as rob? I dont think he looks any taller than his dad in any photos
Editor Rob
he might edge Ricky out, but 5ft 8 seems hard to imagine.
Paul Wood said on 2/Mar/21
Listed as 5ft 7in in many places but looking at that photo I don't think he's as tall as that. His son Campbell is listed as 5ft 8in but I've seen a couple of photos of them together and I see a height difference of about an inch so I think his son is 5ft 7in.
Vincent Caleb said on 27/Nov/20
In the pic he doesn’t look this tall, but based on all of the pics I have seen this looks possible.
Crab said on 14/Jun/19
Rob, what would you guess for Tommy Fury (
Tyson Fury's brother) next to Hatton? He seems to get billed around 6', 6'2. Really doesn't look over 6ft with Hatton
Click Here
Editor Rob
Wouldn't go over 6ft for him.
c-mo said on 7/Apr/19
rob is 167cm flat possible for ricky hatton ? maybe even 166cm ? the difference between you both is pretty striking
Editor Rob
I would have said Ricky was near 5ft 6, but a chance of slightly under more than over, though taller than 5ft 5.5 people I feel.
Sotiris Gravas said on 21/Mar/19
5'5.5" Hatton and Roberto Duran (2013)...
Click Here Duran is shorter than Rob lists him.
mohammad said on 23/Dec/18
Your listing is excellent .
Jay-Ar Mendoza said on 24/Nov/18
And they say he's 5'7 1/2.
Zampo said on 24/Oct/18
Average guess spot on again based to the photo. 5'5.5-5'6 range. Possibly 5'5.75.
Christian 6'5 3/8 said on 10/Oct/18
@Rob
He looks shorter than 5'6" next to you though. I can see 5'5.5" but not 5'6".
Editor Rob
Well if I was a visitor to this site, I might also guess he could appear like he was nearer 5ft 5.5 range...but from meeting him I wasn't convinced he was that short.
Pierre said on 9/Oct/18
Or maybe around 5"5'
Editor Rob
he really is much closer to 5ft 6 than 5ft 5.
Pierre said on 9/Oct/18
Next to Rob Ricky looks under 5"6' imo,he's 5"6' by the height chart but Rob lose height here imo.I see him between 5"5.25'/5"5.5' by this pic next to Rob
Rick1 said on 23/Aug/18
A good 5'6 - Still despite his height you clearly wouldn't want to mess with him.
Paul Wood said on 12/Aug/18
Listed as 171cm (5ft 7.3in) in many places but I agree he's 5ft 6in flat looking at this photo.
PhysicsEnemy said on 5/Feb/18
Rob's leaning a bit more and Hatton's hair is helping. 5' 5.5" is spot on.
The Shredder said on 21/Jan/18
just under 5'6. 5'5 7/8
PhysicsEnemy said on 10/Nov/17
5' 5.5" imo, edges Pacquiao. Mayweather edges both, only slightly (5' 6").
Slim 6' said on 23/Oct/17
Lol @Gulliver. Yeah mate you'll feel like gulliver in Indonesia.
Gerry Blue said on 7/Sep/17
I'm Mexican too, 174. The general population seems to be getting taller, thing is, people of pure indigenous descent (or sometimes mixed) are indeed mostly short, so to average 169 and 157 nation wide, the tall people make up for the short ones. On thing is sure, 168 is not Gulliver here at all.
Faza said on 29/Aug/17
Hatton said he is 5ft6 on ringside too
lactose said on 1/Aug/17
does rob assume everybody else other than him as a ****ty posture, or is he giving them advantage? I always wondered that especially after he introduced the somewhat inaccurate height chart popup thingy.
Editor Rob
sometimes people stand good, other times they don't, generally I thought Ricky stood ok with those in front, but a chance he is a little under 5ft 6, not much though.
Tyson said on 28/Jul/17
6 cm shorter here
The shredder said on 25/Jul/17
The average guess at 5'5.63 means that a lot of these are people giving 5'5.5 or under. Pure downgrading , the lowest you can argue is 5'5.75 , that should be the lowest on the average guess. Just shows that folks will downgrade.
Gaz said on 23/Jul/17
Glad you got a pic with him now and he does look 5'6.
Slothee said on 23/Jul/17
I don't know why the average guess is 5'5 5/8"?! He looks 5'6" to me, and although Rob is leaning a bit, so is Hatton if you look as well. His hair just surpasses 5'6", and so does Rob's hair with 5'8".
Slim 181 cm said on 8/Jul/17
More 166/167/168 tbh
heightboard.com said on 25/Jun/17
So glad that you finally took a photo with this man. Since he's British too I had high hopes that it would happen and thanks to you now we have a pretty good idea how tall Mayweather and Pacquiao are. I assume Hatton was around 5'5.75 at his best, Pacquiao no taller than 5'5 and Mayweather no taller than 5'7.
Hatton actually looks more like 5'5-5'5.5 here (you're not standing straight like he is) but he's much fatter so he could've lost some height. Funny how he was listed at 5'7 sometimes.
Great website and keep up the good work.

Editor Rob
I'm actually standing worse with my latest photo (Christian Wrestler) than I am here...of course I am losing a bit of height, certainly a fraction more than Ricky...I'd say 5ft 5.75-6 range was quite likely today.
He's younger than me though, I am not sure if he really has shrunk a fraction, though.
Canson said on 17/Jun/17
Agreed Cameron! Wish there were more like him
Cameron said on 16/Jun/17
Nice that he's honest about his height.
Peter 179cm said on 13/Jun/17
167cm is my guess,Rob is leaning obviously.
Jordan87 said on 13/Jun/17
Rob,
Though Ricky was not as Good as Floyd or Manny ( High bar ), his style being very agressive was always more entertaining that I will give him. HE didn't duck any fighters and had a 95 % Win Ratio.
He is def a funny looking guy, though I am honest I would certainly not say that to his face.
Jordan87 said on 13/Jun/17
Rob,
I remember when he was fighting mayweather, he coined the named " Fatton Hatton" For Himself, to make fun of himself. He gained an extreme amount of weight between his fights, than would lose it and get in shape in time.
I really wanted him to beat Mayweather way back when, but knew it would be a longshot.
Editor Rob
just fell short of guys like Manny or Floyd, but still he had a very good career.
MJKoP said on 13/Jun/17
I don't think this guy really meant any harm, but you have to be careful when inadvertently perpetuating negative stereotypes.
The Exorcist said on 12/Jun/17
YES!! I KNEW HE WAS 5'6"!!! lol
@Christian: I guess he says that because his Mexican equivalent would be 5'1"/5'2" range. So even though 5'6" is short for a guy the UK, there's still plenty of 5'6" range guys there. So in Mexico, there's probably a lot of 5'1" and 5'2" range guys walking around.
SL9 said on 12/Jun/17
It's a tongue in cheek comment. The average Mexican is about 5'7-5'8
Johno said on 12/Jun/17
As the picture is, Ricky seems to average at this 5'6 listing but sincd i feel Rob's lean is taking some height off, i will give Ricky 5'5.75.
Balrog said on 12/Jun/17
He would be pretty much average in Mexico, or barely above average. Weird quote. Next to Rob if he had same footwear, he looks close to 5'6''. I'd say 5'5.75'' to be precise, but 5'6'' is fine.
Lee168cm said on 12/Jun/17
Well there will be many below average height in Mexico i guess men of our height would only feel tall in Vietnam where the average man is bearly five foot. and didn't Sarah Michelle gellar say the same about filming in Japan when she's 5ft 2 and the average man is 5'7"?
ronald said on 10/Jun/17
less than an inch taller than pacquaio when facing off before the fight
closer to 5-5
maybe 5-5 and a quarter or so
Pierre said on 10/Jun/17
Rob is slouching more.Around 167 here imo
MJKoP said on 9/Jun/17
What an ignorant quote...he'd be closer to feeling like Gulliver in Brobdingnag, because he'd still be under average height there.
Guest66 said on 9/Jun/17
At barely 5'6 you won't feel yourself like Gulliver anywhere, and most of Mexican men will be somewhere around this tall.
Lee168cm said on 9/Jun/17
Rob why do you always look more than 2 inches taller than any guy you have listed at 5ft 6 like they are barely over your eyebrows they always seem at least 3 inches shorter than you. Could it be camera angle or footware I've noticed that in a few photos
Editor Rob
well he's in about inch shoe, me in inch sneaker.
I wouldn't call Ricky a strong 5ft 6 though.
Andrea said on 9/Jun/17
Yeah, that could be the case. Maybe he's used to feeling short in the UK and being in a nation where the average is 3-3.5 inches less (which is quite a noticeable amount) makes him feel tall in a sense?
joe### said on 9/Jun/17
rob you loser posture next with Ricky Hatton
Andrea said on 9/Jun/17
Possibly a weak 5'6, especially considering that you seem to be leaning a bit...
But the question is: how can he "feel like Gulliver" in Mexico, where the average is supposed to be right around his height (5'6)? 🤔
Editor Rob
maybe he was exaggerating a little...and visiting a country with an average 3-3.5 inches less than say the UK, the difference becomes more obvious, you don't feel short...
Parker said on 9/Jun/17
5'6 on the money with Rob.
World Citizen said on 9/Jun/17
Good listing. Not taller not shorter.
Ben said on 5/Mar/17
Scroll down to the picture of Haye and Hatton. Hatton looks 5ft 3 compared to 6ft Haye.

Lee168cm said on 30/Jan/17
I'd guess his wife in the pic with him would be 5'7 5'8 range without heels possibly 5'7.5" would you agree rob?
Johnny said on 25/Jan/17
@Rob how tall is the woman next to him?
The Exorcist said on 18/Nov/16
@Parker: I agree. 5'7" flat for Floyd.
Nik said on 17/Nov/16
I think he is near 5'5" than 5'6".
MD said on 14/Nov/16
It was so clear he was going to blow up once he left the sport.
Parker said on 12/Nov/16
Hatton and Mayweather - is there over an inch difference? I'm not so sure

AJ said on 11/Nov/16
Perfect listing, he's slightly taller than pacquio.
Christian-196.2cm (6ft5.25) said on 10/Nov/16
He has the face of a big tall man. I didn't know who he was , so when I first clicked the page, I was expecting him to be at least 6ft tall.
Arch Stanton said on 10/Nov/16
Yes, I think 5 ft 6 flat is fair.
Editor Rob
Arch, I think Hatton has a build that can make him seem 5ft 5, but I would say he is taller than a guy like McGuigan.
The Exorcist said on 9/Nov/16
Perfect listing. Textbook 5'6"
Realist said on 9/Nov/16
5'5 180 for Hatton

5'5 and 180 for Hatton.
