That's a little funny. Wedged between Anderson and Milsaps he doesn't look that big but from what I understand, he's around the 200 lb mark. And he has to work very hard to keep himself at that weight.

I thought the same thing when Holley was interviewing him last weekend and I was standing next to him. I'm not big at all (5'11" 200) and I'm taller and huskier. Weston is lean, but he does have super wide shoulders, that's where the "big guy" comes from I believe. He is next to Millsaps here who IS a big person.

well firstly his suspension looks more compressed than the others to me. Secondly he's just a really bulky guy. I don't think anyone was talking about his height, as much as they were the the bulkiness of him

I think it'd be more clear with his shirt off.

Also, incidents like this one built his reputation as someone ready to fight.

He use to be a lot bigger, he looked more like a football player than a MX racer. He wasn't fat at all, just a big stout looking guy.

He used to be around 260, a few years ago as a pro. He has lost 50 or so pounds.

I don't blame him for that. That track worker was a punk.

Right. I (literally) ran into Reedy in the pits a few years ago, and I was shocked how short he was. I'm also 5'11" and I was looking down on the guy.

Last year at St. Loius directly behind the gates. Compare #40 to #23 Will Hahn (before Hahn got hurt that night).



And also for comparison, next to Dianna Dahlgren

Peick is not all that big. People just think he's tough (and he might be) because of his mean mug and that somehow becomes "he's a huge dude".

Reed is 5'9, maybe 5'10 on a good day. I am 5'8 and my kid is 5'11. His height was right between the 2 of us. RV is about the same as Reed as well.

The listed heights crack me up. MC was always listed as 5'10 yet he was almost exactly the same height standing next to me. then again, lots of people fudge their height a little. I can't tell you how many times people standing right next to me tell me they are 5-10 or 5-11 yet they are the same height as me. They tell me I must also be 5-10 and I tell them 20 yrs in the army getting my height and weight taken every 3-6 months has me fairly certain what my height is.

Let's just say we must have been wearing our cleats when we put our heights in the programs for sports in high school, haha

OK, but let's just say that it might be more surprising to see Will Hahn wind up and act like he was going to hit a corner worker. I think we can agree on that.
