Average size for 6 month old CC

As I've said in my introduction we adopted Bubba and he was listed as a cane corso mix. When we got him (1 month ago tomorrow) he was 5.5 months and 50 lbs and skinny. He is now 6.5 months and 67 lbs and about 23-24 inches at the withers.
I am just curious if this seems about right for this breed? He is so mych stockier than my ridgeback, who is 27 inches and 90 lbs, I really think he will pass him up soon.
Here are some recent pics, sorry for the glowing eyes but I am sure those of you with a brindle know that without the flash their face features just look solid black :)

Oh he is so cute!!
I don't know much about averages, but my Vito was 60lbs at exactly 5 months old. He is a purebred Cane Corso. I'm sorry I can't help you out much, but maybe if you have some pictures of his side profile some of the others can let you know what they think?

Stella would average a weight that was 10 times her age in months. 5 months she was 50-60lbs. 6 months, 60-70lbs.

Thanks for the replies, I will try and get some side profile shots of him uploaded. He is much more filled out now, and I think his weight is "right" for his height, but I could be wrong. My other question is does he look cane corso to you? I thought he looked it somewhat, but someone on here posted some pics of their presa and taking away the uncropped ears, he looked like he could be Bubba's twin brother.

Thanks for the response jcook. People have suggested the DNA test, but I heard they are a waste of money. I also read that you have to make sure if you have other dogs (I have 3 total) that the dogs don't lick eachother or share a water bowl for 48 hours. Hah, the only way that would happen would be if I crated him for the entire time.

He's beautiful, he's the double of my boerboel x presa canerio. I bet he's cross with presa. All three breeds have many similarity.

Many of these breeds do look similar.
My 18 month old CC Abby looks like a Borborel, she has the same face and height she is not as broad or thick though.
