True Manlets in UFC aka real height of figthers

[Luffy]

I am also 5'9 United in height!

That's when I was 16 yo tho. I was actually 5'8" now that I've checked the full conversion from the SI measure to the USA one. I was 5'8 at 16 and in 3 years I grew up to 6'0"... Which I'm still at as a 21 yo. But it was weird growing 2 inches from 16/17 to 19, at least I've read it's rare for men to get taller past 16 yo, I was happy being 5'8 and then I started to feel that leg pain again when stretching. I think as 18 yo I was 5'11" (a little bit taller, like 181cm and then capped at 183cm or 6'0")

Probably the entire war room and half the mods

How tall are you? As tall as Aspinall?

Nah I'm like 6'-1 in shoes but I'm grandfathered in

Ban!!

Not to hate but Sean Brady looked same height as Joe Rogan and said he is 5´9. But he drank the bjj juice to make up for it in thickness.

I think a lot of people round and up and also ad inches in the UFC.

 

[Captain Herb]

Ban!!

Like I said, I'm exempt because of my join date, but you should definitely turn yourself in to avoid harsh punishment

 

[Ayreon]

Maybe, using the metric system as in all civilized countries, heights would be more precise.

 

[MRudi]

Wait, so Tyson Fury is a manlet? Crazy, I always thought he was Sherdog height.

Yeah.
If you lie about your height and need to add couple inches to feel good about yourself, yes, you are manlet.
Normal man doesn't need to lie about himself

I wish there was a system that was in place in the ufc as scientific as possible for measurements. I know they used to let fighters fill in details like a drivers license and they would make up shit to keep their opponents guessing. That's pretty bush league. UFC fighters are already dedicating 2 months every fight camp with specific training, everyone should know everyone's reach+height with no inaccuracy. Matters alot for striking and getting used to distance.

As far as the "manlet" shit goes, I think they are even more badass if they are shorter and beat up taller people. I don't give a fuck about them not being 6ft if they win. Someone like Topuria gets my full respect for handling guys taller than him, and if he was 6'5 at LW doing the same, I'd have less respect.

Makhachev fears manlets. "No, I don't want to fight small fighters, Volk was small but very tough, so not Topuria"

Silva gaming the system

 

[Neck&Neck]

Cutting height is just another aspect of the fight game

 

[cmw43]

I admit that Tyson Fury may be exaggerating his height.

 

[LeBron]

They measure shoes on thats really it. That could be inch and a half. I am all of 6 4 in shoes but barefoot 6 2. I think that's what's going on here

This. I think all sports measure wearing shoes. The NBA just started doing barefoot measurements.

I hate this thread



Ohhh so cause a guy adds a few inches now he cant bang??

 

[Captain Herb]

Maybe, using the metric system as in all civilized countries, heights would be more precise.

More precise than 1/16"? How about 1/32", or 1/64" do we need to go to a RCH when measuring height?

 

[FlowchartRog]

Either Ngannou is >> 6'3" or Fury is << 6'9

Why are you using bitshift operators instead of less than and more than?
