Where Does UFC Gets Height Info From.

[msm1981]

Where does UFC get there fighter height info from
since I know they billed Jodie Esquibel at 5'3" at
the Fight Night event in Poland which wasn't correct
do to the fact she actually is 5'1" or where they bill
Joanna at 5'6" while she is actually 5'7".

They just eye each person

The guy responsible for screen graphics just makes a good guess. Sometimes he shows up to work drunk.

 

[blaseblah]

I'm guessing it's self-reported.

 

[Bend NvR Break]

From the fighters themselves. That's why I've already said everyone gives themselves an inch or 2.

Here's where they got Jon Jones's info:

i believe the ufc has a part of the company that creates appearances for fighters and creates their stats like reach, height and weight.

and then tells the fighters to go look like what the company created for them to look like.

They just make that shit up brah.

I can't even COUNT the amount of times I've seen fighters height & reach change over the years.

It's laughable.

Here's where they got Jon Jones's info:

6'6 with shoes. Maybe less than 6'5 without?

 

[Erocthadon]

A crackhead, who's strung out and meth, while shooting heroin....obviously.

 

[Ely Slade]

Here's where they got Jon Jones's info:

5' 8" when running from traffic accident.

2' 3" when hiding under the cage.

3' 8" when in hospital bed recovering from Gus fight.

 

[ninja boot]

i believe the official fighter height and weight come straight from the ufc's ass.

 

[Megalodon]

No idea but there's no way Swanson and Ortega were both 5'8.

Carwin pioneered cutting height. He wrote the bro-science chapter on it.

 

[tehShuffle]

It's always been all over the place. Mir even mentioned it when he was commentating once.

 

[woodsideQ]

they hired the guy who did heights for the WWE
