At 15 you have a good chance to grow that tall. If your doctor, who knows the most about it, says you may, you just might do it! To help yourself achieve that goal, be sure to eat a healthy diet. For example, no fast food, soda, fries, or other unhealthy food.
Now, as to a beer belly -probably not. What causes a beer belly is a lot of beer, and bad nutrition. It's not actually the stomach that's big, but the liver. People who have that can never get rid of it, even if they lose all the excess weight they have. Because you cannot shrink the liver. At your age, it's unlikely you have had enough beer to cause that much liver disease. Unless you live in a country other than the US, you are not drinking legally. That in itself is a severe warning about your adult health. Be a good soccer player and do what you need to grow tall -eat and drink healthy.
Last thought: men can still grow until the age of 24, though 18 is the usual end of growth.

Most teenagers these days tend to grow taller than there parents. And it doesn't seem to matter if you are male or female. I for example am actually 6 foot two inches and I can tell you now it can get annoying being at this height. My mum is only 5 foot half an inch and my dad is 5 foot 10 inches. So I think you might get to be 6'2 but I wouldn't worry too much about it. Who knows you might even reach 6 foot 4 inches. One last thing I'm actually still growing. I started growing in height from the age of 22. I was a little runt before that. Now I'm 26. I am a bit of a freak of nature though.

Alcoholism at 14 will definitely stunt your growth. So will cigarette smoking and marijuana. At 15 you definitely have room to grow, but if you've been drinking long enough to have a beer belly, its your own fault when you stunt your growth and dont grow another inch. You shouldnt do drugs until after you are done growing
