Gotta love when someone says "look at the comparison" and shows you a picture with a terrible comparison that totally fits their narrative.Just noticed his reach is listed as 69". That has to be a joke right?
Frankie Edgars reach is listed as 68"
Just look at the comparison

Frankie has T-Rex arms when compared to Ortega. His reach has to be like 72" or more.

I don’t trust official stats too much
a lot of European fighters, I’ve noticed, have reaches that, miraculously, always perfectly match their heights. Da Vinci would be proud
I feel like height and reach get lost in translation, at least from metric to imperial
I’ve wondered about thisDoes their reach get measured once they enter the UFC or does the UFC just use whatever it got measured at in some small promotion from before? It's easy to just tuck in your shoulders a little bit and you reach will be a couple inches shorter that it actually is.
I’ve wondered about this
With so many guys on the roster, I bet they just import stats from other orgs sometimes
I dunno though. There have been so many shenanigans like 5’11” Anderson, 6’5” Carwin, Gus’s ever-changing reach, etc

Closer to the camera doesn't matter, it's a far away shot zoomed in.what? the difference in reach is even greater than the picture shows as Edgar is closer to the camera but I don't have to show you any picture. You can just look up his fights. Dude has monkey arms
