Is Cain Velasquez only 6'0?

[OneManGang]

What he lacks in height he makes up for in width

Flapping his bingo wings

 

[Frank McEdgar]

I'm 5'9 and when I saw him he looked shorter than me.

Where do you buy your platform shoes? He is 6'1. You were just pumped up.

 

[Titleboxe]

deceptively big. wide and super powerful. super thick. every inch.

Ummm, I think you need some of this, here you go buddy:

 

[IK00PA]

Cain is teh best

 

[TheBrownGosling]

Ronaldo is listed at 6'1"

 

[McPunchy]

Yep. He's about 6 even.

I've stood next to him a few times and he doesn't seem that big.

 

[HI SCOTT NEWMAN]

UFC on their official website list him as 6'2'' which is hilarious and yet another UFC height lie, most of the heights are made-up. he is about 6 foot and no more. Don't compare his height to other UFC fighter heights because their heights are also made-up. some are legit, but most are made to be taller than they actually are. I found this out for myself at UFC Fan Expo

Hahahaha Lies

Sounds about right to me, if anything i think the UFC just round of fighters to the nearest inch or maybe give guys an inch of height, like other sports too, like tennis for example, i live in melbourne and thats where the Australian Open takes place and i get to see a lot of the best players practicing live and some defintely seem an inch or so shorter then their listed heights

 

[Bmurray]

I'm sure if Cain were on House Hunters, they'd say "another item on the list is high-ceilings with husband Cain being six feet tall"

Some of them are ridiculous haha. I went to UFC Fan Expo in 2014 and some of the fighters were so much shorter than UFC bills them as.. like for example I saw Rashad Evans there and UFC lists him as 6 foot, but noooooo way he is 6 foot in real, he is about 5'10'' and no more, I know he was LHW but he is not a tall guy, he is shortish and squat in person.

 

[Brock Tober]

Cain's height depends on what is injured at that moment. If it's teh ankle, the cast makes him a lopsided 6'4".

 

[beastman]

I vaguely remember a FS1 segment with Urlacher looking gigantic compared to Cain.

 

[TourIsOverBoyo]

Big for a Mexican though

 

[lesnarsneedle]

Cormier is around 5'9", possibly 5'8".

Cain is 5'11"

Always take off 1-2" of billed height. Always.

Sometimes even more

 

[ocfightfan]

Small for a heavyweight.

I've met him and and that sounds about right.

 

[Fedor2000]

He's about 6 feet tall, 5 feet wide with balls as big as Texas.

 

[One MMA Fan]

I don't know... @One MMA Fan how tall is Cain?

Not that it matterz... he beats the sh*t out of everyone in the UFC except for an occasional HW that had a better night.

I don't know why but I'm interested in the legit stats (height / weight) of the fighters and I look for more sources, compare more pictures, different angles etc etc and my results so far:

DC is around 5'9.75 ~ 5'10 (fight night weight around 225 lbs with quite some fat on him)

Cain is around 6'0.75 ~ 6'1 (fight night weight around 242 lbs again with fat on him)

Brock Lesnar is around 6'2.5 (fight night weight around 285 lbs, he fluctuates the most seen him in 280 and 290)

 

[Kabzie]

I'm 3'9 and towered over him when we tinder matched

 

[DelanoRunnymede]

I've stood next to Cain, maximum 6ft. Maybe an inch shorter.

 

[Cdizzle]

He's a solid 6'1. Thicker than a snickers though
