How "official" are the height and reach stats on the UFC website?

[codfather]

I find it hard to believe that Bones has the same reach as Struve, despite being 8 inches shorter.

 

[Sansnom]

They're "official".

 

[SeattleFightFan]

they're not (necessarily) accurate or official.

i'm sure some are accurate.

 

[wilKO]

Carwin is 6'5 and Mir is 6'3

You tell me

 

[codfather]

On ufc.com, Mir is 6'3 and Carwin is 6'2.

 

[BigTruck]

Carwin is 6'5 and Mir is 6'3

You tell me

Angles man. Not is just clearly closer and standing on a stool and carwin also cut 7". Pfffft.

 

[Vile]

Alexander Gustafsson has reach listed as 79" but he himself has said that it is actually 81"

[ineverpost]

about as official as mine in the bedroom if you know what I mean

 

[Fight Professor]

Alexander Gustafsson has reach listed as 79" but he himself has said that it is actually 81"

It started at 76" but Gus has been gradually working on it.

You only care if you're a manlett.

 

[MadDogMahoney]

As official as a ref with a whistle.

 

[iwhoopedbatman]

Carwin is 6'5 and Mir is 6'3

You tell me

Unfair. It's well known Carwin cut all types of height for that fight.

 

[KingBeef]

They've got Nate Diaz wrong for sure. He should be at least 16 feet tall and over 400 pounds...

 

[Blazmo]

Blachowicz was listed as 6'2 on the tale of the tape in his bout with Manuwa yet Manuwa looked about the same size as him if not slightly taller.

 

[codfather]

Weidman and Anderson Silva are both listed as 6'2 on UFC.com.

 

[Hard To Tell]

They are 100% accurate. Just like Joe Rogan is 5ft 9".

 

[Sonny Qc]

You only care if you're a manlett.

 

[MMAfanJabroniJew]

Carwin is 6'5 and Mir is 6'3

You tell me

Carwin realistically is around 5 foot 11.

 

[MMAfanJabroniJew]

Hector Sandoval is 5 foot 2 inches .

Looks 5 foot
