He was towering OSP big time at the presser...

Either he is a very strong 6'4 meaning he is 6'5 or just shy of it or OSP isn't 6'3 at all...
They looked one weight division apart...

Curious thing is that OSP looked to be his billed 6'3 in most of his other fights until now.. ( a couple of inches taller than Mousasi who is between 6'1 and 6'2 etc. )
I certainly didn't expect the size difference to be that big though... OSP really has no chances at all..
 
Jones ain't cutting height this time around.

Seriously though you have to wonder if the whole roster but him has a +2inches WWE type billing.
I remember pics of him and Kongo looking the same height and Kongo also is in that " consistently looks taller than his billing " territory so...

Shoes...?

Height ain't everything anyway. Look at Cerrone at LW....

Or Struve in HW. Yeah. Struve is too tall for HW! He should be fighting at SHW!!!!
 
He's around the same height as Overeem and JDS, who are about 6'4".

He looks like Dana White's UFC 2 CAF with wonky Face Capture

Will Chope would be the sub-LW GOAT if physical dimensions mattered as much as some people think they do.

Its WWE height.

Rock is around 5'11" but is billed much taller. The chick here is 6'1"

Just minus 3"-5" for each UFC guy

Conan Obrian is 6'4". The Big Show is maybe 6'6".

Just a bunch of fake heights to look scary to people

 
Look how tall Snow White is compared to these members of Alpha Male.

Still, anything above 6 makes bully Jones scared to make eyecontact.
 
He must have trained with Carwin at some point.
 
And Gus was a little bigger than Jones.

Gus ducking heavyweights.
