Tony ferguson the type of guy to make height before a fight.
-
Fans: Ask a question Uncle Chael: Answers his own question
-
"I see holes in donuts" - Daniel Cormier
-
Tony Ferguson the Type of guy to read the terms and conditions and decline
-
Chael: "Reach wont help you in a fight.." Jon Jones' reach: "Hold my Recuerdo.."
-
Chael: thinking of example of fighters considered “short for their weight class” Chael: Mike Tyson DC: Am I a joke to you?
-
Chael is 6'1" and proved that you can overcome a height disadvantage when he became the greatest heavyweight and greatest p4p fighter of all time
-
Igor Vovchanchyn was 37-0 in heavyweight, he was 5'8.
-
Nobody: Uncle Chael: "2+2 does not equal 4" Me: ok great
-
Tony Ferguson the type of guy to find out Khabib’s phone number and constantly share his location with him
-
DC and Fedor are a little short for heavyweight.
-
Jones is living proof that height and reach matters, lol. This dude's arms can reach you from half way across the cage. But I guess there's also a law of diminishing returns because if you look at Struve or Hong-man Choi, the excess size becomes a detriment.
-
Latifi is short even for middleweight standards, so let me offer you this: bantamweight Latifi
-
Another example of a short heavy weight is D.C.
-
We’ve had a 5’9 HW champ
-
Daniel Cormier is a short heavyweight that made it work. This is why he is one of the best ever.
-
Finally a Sakuraba question, for the real MMA fans
-
Height means nothing Cejudo is 4’7” and he’s the champ
-
Tony Ferguson the type of guy to have a championship fight when there is no fight.
-
Lol DC is generously listed at 5'11 but more like 5'9" - 5'10" and was LHW and HW champ...and what about what many call the goat in Fedor? Generously listed at 6'0" and everyone knows his accolades
