Aside from Artem, who has the worst height:reach ratio in the UFC?

[D 1 Wrestler]

???

 

[beefcake180]

Gus has a pretty short reach for being 6'5

 

[TheNinja]

I don't think Sean Sherk actually had forearms. Just fists attached to his elbows.

 

[Sonny Qc]

Serra ?

 

[Platinum]

Max Holloway

Gus has a pretty short reach for being 6'5

Andy Wang

 

[Squaze]

Necktats, maybe?

Garbrandt 5,8, 65 reach.

Serra ?

Serra actually is listed with a 68" reach, 3" longer than Artem, despite being 3 inches shorter (wiki stats)

CoGar is really disadvantaged in this aspect, crazy how he still is the best boxer in the UFC

 

[airic_15]

I think George roop was tall with average reach

The way UFC measures reach is stupid.

Anyone with a wide back supposedly has a longer reach?

They should call it wingspan if we are just holding arms out to the sides and measuring fingertip to fingertip.

The real test would be to hold your arm straight out in front of you and measure from fist to shoulder(or armpit). THAT IS reach. Like how far away someone can touch you.

Wingspan does not tell the whole story.

Garbrandt 5,8, 65 reach.

CoGar sounds like a horde chieftain lol

Edgar is always the right answer for this type of question. He didn´t have a height / reach disadvantage for one or 2 fights, but for his entire career.

Even his belt has more reach than him, look.

You misunderstood the question.

You misunderstood the question.

I understood the question perfectly well, but it´s just a silly question. What´s the next one, leg / height reach ratio vs arm / height reach ratio ?

Yea, problem was he was fighting WWs, so it looked worse as everyone was taller.
