i dont know couldn’t see much height difference between them if porier is a solid 5“9 then conor must be aswell they look exactly the same height even with khabib who is listeng at 5“10 but is 5“9 there was not much Putin even though conor was taller and khabib replied i think we was the same height after the Fight when putin invited him
RR said on 29/Dec/20
Conor is nothing more than 5'8. If anyone watched the Dustin Poirier match could see the clear height difference. The latter is apparently 5'9.
elvis said on 14/Dec/20
but 5“7 or anywhere 5“7 range is to low for him at worst 5“8 everything under 5“8 is ridiculous for Conor !
elvis said on 14/Dec/20
actually change my mind i took another close look at conor size and yes and i donit believe the full 5“9 i though he is i think he can look really tall because of his porpotion but in reality somewhere 5“8 range is more accurate i guess at most he is 5“8.75
stiggles said on 14/Dec/20
This Irish fella is tiny.. 5ft 7 max..
Sean b said on 9/Dec/20
Here’s the thing all athletes and celebrity’s are listed 2-3 inches taller then their average height Conor tops 5’7-5’71/2 tops he’s deff not 5’8 also reaches are deff off too 90% of the time
elvis said on 5/Dec/20
well 178 cm is definitely to much for him never would measured that barefeet but 176 maybe a small fraction under 175.5 and above denfintly in as morning height of course
Jimmy Brown Sauce said on 4/Dec/20
That would be his lowest height on a bad day. Why not give him his tallest height, 178.
elvis said on 30/Nov/20
or i dont know for me conor looks really like 5“9 he can look 5“8 sometimes but mostly i he looks taller than that even in the octagon against nate how i believe is solid 6ft guy conor looked about 3 inches shorter
elvis said on 30/Nov/20
im really confident that conor would easily measured 176 cm rage at mornig and about 174 cm range before bed so majority of the day he can measure 175 cm so i think putting conor at 5“9 is absolutely fair c bout his reach is denfinetly 72 not 74 inch thats to much even if he has very long arms
Guest66 said on 25/Nov/20
I think they did measure his reach at around 72in, which is believable considering that his reach was a big problem for the smaller guys he fought. However the 74in number is a stretch for sure.
Noto said on 16/Nov/20
Hey Rob what do you think about the 74 inch reach of Conor, he is like 73inch and one time Conor said he have 73inch reach ? Thank you
Editor Rob
I can believe his reach near 5ft 11 as he has long arms. His height near 5ft 11 is impossible though
Mert 5'8 said on 28/Oct/20
173.5 or 173 for conor
Andy5'93/4 said on 25/Oct/20

Weirdly he actually has been put back to 175cm/5’9 but when i sent my comment google had downgraded him im not sure what happened
suna said on 16/Oct/20
@Andy5'93/4
Are you sure? Google lists him as 5'9" like almost all places except a few others that list him as 5'10" or even 5'11".
Lalala said on 16/Oct/20
what is your highest and lowest height estimatives for connor mcgregor at night, rob?
Editor Rob
5ft 8 is absolute lowest I think he might be at night
5foot9Giant said on 12/Oct/20
Hey Rob, Conor MIGHT be 5'8.5 but probably during the night only. How tall do you think Jose aldo is? Jose is listed at 5'7 but he looks a heck of a lot smaller overall than Conor. Is a 1.5 inch difference in height really this drastic to the point that it makes someone look significantly shorter than the other? Is a 4cm difference really this big in perceived size? Jose is clearly taller than his 5'6 listed opponents and also doesn't have the short guy appearance that 5'6 guys have. But he also looks way smaller than Conor in every meeting which makes me doubt he can actually be only 1.5 inches shorter.
These pics are all from different days of their world tour:

If Conor is 5'9.5 (in the morning) I wouldn't really be surprised and tbh from what ive seen I think he would be 5'9 during the day.

Hey rob google weirdly lists him at 5’8 173cm could he be that?
Editor Rob
I wouldn't list Conor and Floyd Mayweather at the same height.
Sonny Black said on 17/Sep/20
Hey Rob I see you responded to someone posting the video of Conor being measured. In the video it sounds like the measurement is 71inches, but I think using reasonable sense the measurement is in fact 171cm which places him closer to his listed height of 5’9, then when you factor in the known practice of the UFC to inflate fighter heights by an inch or two I think it’s fair to believe Conor is a hair under 5’8.
Editor Rob
It's an imperial tape measure, there is no metric on it.
However, the guy I believe would have put his toes on the tape and didn't measure him properly.
The other option is he's really 71 inches...which is 2 inches more than McGregor claims himself.
Sonny Black said on 17/Sep/20
Almost every UFC fighters height is inflated by 1-2 inches, the UFC took a page out of WWE’s playbook in order to make their athletes seem larger than they are... There’s a video of Conor being measured barefoot before his first UFC fight and they measure him at just a touch under 5’8. In reality he’s 5’7 3/4.
mumhugger said on 5/Sep/20
Hi Rob, how tall do you believe Dillon Danis to be? he claims 6'0 but I'd say he's more 5'11.
Mr height said on 26/Aug/20
Rob since hes been measured 71 inches do you think theres a chance he could be maybe a weak 5FT11?
Editor Rob
It seems hard to imagine he was near 5ft 11. I don't know if the guy calling out the figure really was accurate.

Editor Rob
I don't think he'd be a full inch taller, but I think he'll edge me out.
Deeontaeh said on 11/Aug/20
@angliasis
and to me he looks 5'8 flat in all photos. Isn't that amazing, if we average out our guesses it comes to 5'8.5, the exact number an average of over 430 others estimate him to be.
elvis markaj said on 11/Aug/20
i dont think you can call him a
height liar because he only claim 1/2 inch more the he really is maybe he doesnt like claiming fraction so he rounds up to 5“9 wich is not really lying about his height i think everything under 1 inch height difference is barelly noticeable
elvis markaj said on 11/Aug/20
i believe Conor is a legit 5“9 i would say 176.5 cm in the morning and maybe drops as low as 174.5 cm during the day maybe 174 cm after a hard day of training
Matthew Cercone said on 10/Aug/20
A solid 5ft8.25 in my opinion with 5ft 9 listed khabib he seemed almost a full inch shorter, also rob could you add Jorge masvidal? I believe he'd be 5ft9.75
angliasias said on 10/Aug/20
having him at 5'8.5 is pointless. all the pictures indicates that he is a solid 5'9. he is not a height lier.
Billy Jones said on 8/Aug/20
Let us be clear about something - 5 foot 8 and a half IS 5 foot 9. Who in the world is so pendantic that they will discount themselves 1.27 cm? Its not even a one percent margin of error. Height is also not static at all. Spinal compression is a reality that affects standing heights. People need to factor in tolerances with heights, and I would say this guy lies anywhere from 173 - 176 cm tall.
Angle said on 8/Aug/20
Hey rob! Any Chance of adding Jorge Masvidal? probably the biggest star in MMA at the moment.
I think he's a solid 5'10/178cm
Beej said on 5/Aug/20
5'8 and a half. Simple.

Conor looks atleast 176 with 6 ft listed Donald Cerrone who might be close to 5 ft 11 . Conor had better posture their but he was barefoot where Donald got some shoes advantage
Guest66 said on 21/Jun/20
I also think that Barboza is a strong 5’9” range guy, not even quite 5’10” flat.
anyzman said on 21/Jun/20
straight up 174cm evening height. No less no more. But anyways Rob what do you make of his reach being listed as 74in ?
Jayce the 6'0 said on 16/Jun/20
I'd say he's 5'8 at the most. He's a short dude, even 5'8.5 is too much.
valentinsplash said on 14/Jun/20
Click Here in this video he measured 171 cm by staff ufc
Editor Rob
In that video, he was 71 inches...well, called out, but it was never really a proper measurement unfortunately.
Joseph177 said on 12/Jun/20
@Anthony Oliviera
Thanks for speaking out. Yeah Barboza could very well be 177 or the full 5'10. He did look 1 inch shorter than Ferguson but it might just be his posture. Barboza is a strange one too because he looks tall but with 5'9 range guys (Khabib, Pettis) he is barely taller, also looks quite a bit shorter than Cowboy and Hooker. 177-178 is a good guess.
Anthony Oliviera said on 9/Jun/20
Barboza is around 2 inches shorter than 6’0 Dan Hooker when they fought. Another fighter worth mentioning is RDA. He is the only fighter I have seen in person so far. 170-171 is a good shout.
Alex1929 said on 8/Jun/20
McGregor definitely looks taller than 5 8.5. He consistently does not look much shorter than 5 10ers and 6 footers in situations without lifts. I might even believe hes a bit over 5 9 but under 5 9.5.
He's way closer to 5 9 than 5 8. Way closer.
Anthony Oliviera said on 8/Jun/20
@Joseph 177
I think Ferguson is 179. Barboza 177-178. Whittaker has a chance of measuring 181. Romero is indeed a hard one. His Olympic stat is 174.

@ Josef Jollen-Diaz
Dude even if you don't agree with me. There is no reason for you to start randomly insulting people. You are the idiotic one if you think Edson Barboza is a full 5'11. He was listed as 5'10 before he got popular and he never ever edged out any 5'10 fighters in the UFC. He is 5'9.5 to 5'10 range at most. Just look at him against Khabib, Ferguson, or Dan Hooker. Whittaker as a full 6'0?? You do know he was shorter than Brunson right? Your estimations are ridiculous but that's your opinion. However there is no need for you to insult me. Don't @ me again. I don't talk to rude people.

Rob, conor is definitely the same height as you, but physically, it has long legs, long arms, wide shoulders, and a short back. Certainly between 5ft8 1/8 173-173.5 cm. If Jose aldo is 5ft7 as listed, take a look at the press conference faceoff with conor maybe 1 inch long?

Conor most certainly looks short next to some and tall next to real short folk, 5’8-5’9 seems exactly right
But what about that video where he was measured at 71 inches/5’11?? As ridiculous as it is to imagine he’s that tall, how do we argue with a video recorded measurement???

Half an inch or so, but a full inch I'm not as sure on there.

Rob how tall would you say Cerrone is ? I was guessing him a little over 5’11” before, but I think I got a better look at him when he was facing Conor in the octagon and both of them were barefoot, he was maybe 2.5in taller than Conor, so 5’11” flat tops.
Editor Rob
Hard to imagine him really much above 5ft 11 with McGregor

Conor- 174cm or 5’8.5
Cowboy- 177cm or 5’9.5
Canson said on 22/Jan/20
@Joseph175: yea if you’re guessing 5’8 1/8-1/4 extreme low then an afternoon height of 5’8 3/8-1/2 is possible meaning out of bed he would be 5’9 1/8-1/4”.
dit5500 said on 22/Jan/20
@notorius rogan taller than Conor in the interview ? I can't see that at all , there are also plenty of times during the interview where Conor actually looks taller than Rogan
Click Here for example go to 0.32 of the video and they are almost standing beside each other at a straight angle and conor looks around 1.5 inches taller
Also if you go to 0.50 of this video
Click Here when Rogan interviews conor after he beat Alvarez there is a clear 1.5-2 inch difference between a barefoot Mcgregor and Rogan who is presumably wearing thick shoes
Based on all of this I think there's no way Mcregor falls much below 5'9 at night , he might just about drop to the 5'8.75 mark on a bad day
ConorFan. said on 22/Jan/20
[MY OPINION]
Don't know about you guys but i saw a legit 3.5inch minimum difference between Conor and Donald at the Octagon final face off. BT sport just uploaded the whole fight on their YouTube MMA channel, you can have a look there.
Conor cant be any taller than 5ft 8 flat. Considering Donald is 5'11.5 minimum this makes perfect sense.
Conor's been called 5'8 by many people and MMA organisations in the past. Soon as anyone gets to the UFC they magically get taller. I also noticed a whole bunch of discrepancies between fighters and the tale of the tape on that card.

Notorious said on 19/Jan/20
Joe Rogan (170 cm) with is shoes was talelr than Conor ,but the real thing is Conor was little that the high of the Octogone (175cm ) Conor is officialy 172-3 cm at night , Rob i'm very confident on this
Logan M Barringer said on 19/Jan/20
@EH usually the smaller guy wins in mma. Dana will keep Conor away from Khabib and Diaz since Conor struggles against ground fighters with good cardio. Masvidal is his biggest draw at 170 and he matches up well stylistically with him the best. As for size I agree. Masvidal is probably about an inch or two taller and 10-15 lbs heavier out of camp then Conor.
EH said on 18/Jan/20
If Diaz is 6 foot even...it looks like Masdival is about 2 inches shorter (5’10”?).
I’ve heard people say Masdival is “too big” for McGregor, but Masdival might be a little shorter than Cowboy. They are all shorter than Diaz who McGregor has beat. I can’t see why McGregor vs Masdival wouldn’t be pretty fair from a size perspective. Yeah, McGregor is probably naturally 10-15 pounds lighter but that doesn’t seem to be a problem for him. That’s the fight I’d like to see if he beats Cowboy.
Original said on 18/Jan/20
Cerrone is shorter than Diaz, I think he is 180, Conor should be around 174.
EH said on 18/Jan/20
I can’t pin down a specific guess but I’m comfy thinking he’s in the 5’8.25-5’9 range.
A perfect height. And perfect height for his weight class.
He seems like a pretty confident guy that will gladly walk around other celebs barefoot and have his picture taken with them. He will also fight dudes that are heavier and/or 3-4 inches taller.
What can you say — he’s all man and he’s 5’8.5” tall. You can’t measure his heart/spirit. Same goes for Manny Pacquiao or however it’s spelled.
Win or lose — much respect to Connor.
mumhugger said on 17/Jan/20
It is extremely hard to beleive that Cerrone is 6'/6'1 when looking at this image of him and McGregor facing off after the weigh ins.
Click Here in this image Conor is barefoot and Cerrone is in shoes and it looks to be max a 1-2 inch height difference.
Editor Rob
Barefoot he might not be that much more than 2 inches on McGregor.

In the state down that just took place at the weigh ins cowboy looked 179cm ish
Ahmed3302 said on 17/Jan/20
Cowboy is between 5ft10.25 and 5ft11. Just look to him next to Dana White who is a solid 5ft10 guy.
Imo Mcgregor is a 5ft8-5ft8.5 guy, he has a massive head that helps him appear taller. For instance If we take Mcgregor and compared him next to a 5ft8 guy, Conor will appear taller because of his massive head but the shoulders level will be the same for the two.
dit5500 said on 17/Jan/20
Thought Cerrone who is listed at 6' looked max 2-2.5 inches taller than mcgregor during the face offs. Interesting as well if you go to 5.02 of this video
Click Here you can see up close at the heeled boots Cerrone is Wearing which surely give him a little bit of extra height on Mcgregor.
IMO I Think this shows Mcgregor must be at least a weak 5'9 considering Cerrone is probably no lower than 5'11.5 barefoot
Canson said on 17/Jan/20
@Joseph: Extreme low prob 5’8” or 5’8 1/8”. Afternoon height 5’8.25. Midday 5’8 3/8 and out of bed 5’9” would be my guess

Matt (182cm) said on 16/Jan/20
Hey Big Rob. In the UFC embedded episode 4 for McGregor vs Cowboy at 9:20 Donald says "I'm an inch higher in these boys". It's hard to gauge the height difference because of Cowboy's hat but I'd say from eye level there's a 2.5-3 inch height difference. Thoughts? Cowboy claims 6'1

@leo1993, you really mean Conor 170? I seriously think he’s 175 minimum. Just watch the fight a few days ago with Nate who is 6ft. Then have a look at the time he met 186 Cristiano Ronaldo. I can’t see a 16cm difference AND especially when Ronaldo is wearing thick sole trainers and Conor is barefoot....
Am I wrong? Am I saying something crazy here??

leo1993 said on 9/Jan/20
@ MMAfans
mate since you listed all this which I appreciate, i have my opinion this, see what do you reckon? i dont think i am hating, but we are talking about night height barefoot. And it is so typical in american convention in terms of celebrity height to claim themselves 3-7 cm taller than their actual height (especially guys that are 173-177 range basically all of them officially listed 180 cm), I gotta find one true height then start comparison, I started with Kobe true 195cm bare foot night height standing with Anderson Silva turned out to be 182 cm in comparasion, then I worked out the rest guys.
Usman 175 cm
Colby 174 cm
Jorge 175 cm
Darren 180 cm
Kelvin Gastelum 170 cm
Israel Adesanya 186 cm
Tyron Woodley 168 cm
Yoel Romero strong 172 cm
Robbie Lawler 174 cm
The Rest:
Khabib: 171cm
Conor: 170 cm
Nate Diaz: 183cm this is actually official
Dustin: 170cm
Tony: 175cm
Kevin: 170cm
leo1993 said on 9/Jan/20
@randomdude30
mate i believe Till is 180 cm barefoot night height, the official 183 cm is wearing shoes which is typical in western height measurement convention. Wonderboy I think is 178 cm barefoot night height, compared to Chris Wiedman who is a solid 183 cm (compare to 182 cm Anderson Silva who is 182 standing next to Kobe 195 cm) Robbie I believe is 174 cm. Again it is such a convention that guys in the spotlight to uplift 3-7 cm from their true barefoot night height.

Considering this and how much taller Mcgregor looked than Alvarez plus the fact that he was slightly taller than Poirier when they face off I think it's safe to say he's definitely 5'9 at least

@Randomdude30 Till is a difficult one to judge. Hes so thick it makes him appear larger. He had huge weight cuts at welterweight which can shrink you down almost an entire inch. I think Till is at most 6'1" flat and at his worst 6'0 flat. He looked an inch to an inch a half taller than cowboy who is more 5'11" and a half than the strong 6'0" to weak 6'1" he claims to be.
randomdude30 said on 8/Jan/20
@MMAFans
I have to disagree with Till being 6'1, he was marginally shorter or same height at best than 6'0 Stephen Wonderboy Thompson who has stated himself is 6'0, so Till is 6'0
Robbie Lawler is about 5'10 maybe 5'9.75 wouldn't be as low as 5'8
Infamy said on 6/Jan/20
My opinion is that he likely is closer to 5'7. In photos with people he never looks average, almost always shorter than the majority of males there. The way other fighters call him a midget etc, sounds more like a 5'7 guy than someone who's almost average.
Notorious said on 6/Jan/20
Click Here what's the height of Cruz and Conor on this picture Rob ?
Editor Rob
Looks at most 5ft 7 there
Logan M Barringer said on 4/Jan/20
@ Rob what would be your guess for Colby Covington? I remember he was listed at 5'8" at one point, then each fight after that his height got listed higher. Now hes listed all the way up to 5'11". Judging by a face off he did with RDA he looked 2 inches taller. Conor looked about a quarter to a half inch taller than RDA. My guess for Colby would be hes max 5'10" 1/4 with a minimum of 5'9" 3/4ths.
Editor Rob
Wouldn't go above 5ft 10 for Colby
MMAfans said on 30/Dec/19
[My opinion]
Usman is a strong 5'10 (178cm) Very weak 5'11
Colby is a strong 5'9 (175cm) Very weak 5'10
Jorge is a strong 5'10 (179cm) Weak 5'11
Darren Till is a strong 6'1 (185cm) He even claimed it on a BT Sports Interview Recently
Kelvin Gastelum 5'6 - 5'7 range. Very weak 5'8
Israel Adesanya 6'3
Tyron Woodley strong 5'7 (170-1cm) very weak 5'8
Yoel Romero strong 5'9 (175cm)
Robbie Lawler strong 5'8 (173cm) weak 5'9
The Rest:
Khabib: 175cm
Conor: 172.5cm
Nate Diaz: 185cm
Dustin: 171cm
Tony: 179cm range
Kevin: 170cm

I always thought Usman was at least 5'11.5, but he looks shorter than billed 5'11 Rashad Evans in this video:
Click Here
So you may be right with 5'10.5
Notorious said on 23/Dec/19
hat is the real reach of Conor I said 73" one time but UFC make him 74" , and who increase reach please ahah
Guest66 said on 22/Dec/19
Covington managed to look pretty close to Usman during their face offs I thought. Rob said that Usman has a chance of being 5’11” flat, that would make Colby almost 5’11” as well, but to me he looks like he’s almost 5’10” instead, Masvidal edged him out as well I think. Usman is most likely below 5’11”, I think it goes like this:
Colby - 5’9 1/2 or 3/4”
Masvidal - 5’10 or 1/4”
Usman 5’10 1/2”

I can see why you'd estimate him that, he can look near it.

He never looks 5'9 and often looks fairly average height. I would say a shade over 5 '8 but often wears heeled trainers.
BoxinfFan said on 8/Dec/19
@Loagn M Barringer
I don't think conor would edge out Rob with a normal posture, conor everytime stretch his back and forces the posture to appear taller.
Logan M Barringer said on 6/Dec/19
Conor is about an inch and a half shy of average. When he was fighting at 145 he looked bigger. At 155 he looks normal and at 170 looked smaller. @ Rob would be interesting to see you and Conor next to each other! I think he might edge you out by about a quarter inch, but it would be close.
Yang (5 footer 8, 173) said on 5/Nov/19
His height is almost same to mine as he is only about 1cm taller than me which is barely noticiable in some other's eyes, but he is more muscular than mine as I am more heavier than him at least...

Could very well be 5'9". He always looked taller than his oponents in the feather weight division.

fredon said on 23/Sep/19
No way, just no way. The guy is 5'9/5'10, you can tell many different ways (proportions, his ufc listing, etc). People will argue here that everyone overstates their height but after about a year at looking at this website's listing my conclusion is that just about everyone is loosing an inch (even the people that have been MEASURED). So comparing someone who's artificially listed shorter with someone else with the same treatment doesn't work.
There, Conor measured 5'11 .
Click Here (71'')
Granted it's not accurate. But he clearly is NOT 174cm. Bieber is not 172, Mayweather not 170 and so forth
Editor Rob
I wouldn't take the 71 inches as a serious measurement. The guy was using a tailor tape and using his feet to hold it...nobody could see exactly how, which renders the measurement as useless.
rando182 said on 18/Sep/19
@c-mo
He had back surgery last December, which could've affected him a little. I've seen pictures where DC barely looks over 5'9. It could also be due to his posture, idk.

I doubt DC lost any height . he is 40

IMO he is probably 173.5 cm at night. Around 170 lbs.

I dont think conor is below 173cm ....but he is isnt (much) above it either . over 174cm seems not possible . my guess is that he is something like 173.5cm in the evening
khabib - 174.5cm
DC - 176.5 or 177cm
(evening heights btw )
give.me your opnions about my post
Guest66 said on 8/Sep/19
@ConorFan, Well in the UFC Rory was listed at 6'0", and to me he looks closer to 6'0" than 5'11". Shorter than Wonderboy ?
Click Here, Wonderboy is lucky if he's same height with Rory, but to me he's looking closer to 5'11" rather than 6'0", unlike Rory.
I choose the worst pictures possible huh ? Yeah right, that video you posted "clearly" shows that Masvidal is "at least" 2.5in taller than Romero, where they never even stood properly next to each other.
rando182 said on 8/Sep/19
@ConorFan
Jorge looks like a weak 5'10 to me. Maybe like 5'9.75, seeing him next to guys like Till, Bisping, and Askren. I don't think the difference between him and Yoel is really that big. Lifts/height increasing shoes are fairly obvious to spot and are uncomfortable to wear, so I don't see why professional fighters who have to be barefeet half the time would care for them. It's probably just the angles/posture that's accounting for the discrepancies. Or one guys in shoes while the other isn't at weigh ins, which is pretty common.
ConorFan. said on 2/Sep/19
Tyron Woodley looks about 170.5cm, 5'7.
saltyfish177cm said on 1/Sep/19
he didnt look any taller then tyron woodley in the video of him and woodley having a confrontation backstage. woodley is 5'8

@Guest66 Rory is shorter than 6ft Stephen Thompson and he's officially listed as 5'11 on Bellator Website. (Source:
Click Here )
Man its funny how you chose the worst pics possible, that Masvidal and Yoel pic you can see Jorge is leaning into Yoel and Yoel is kinda leaning over, plus pic is at an angle. Both not standing straight. Ive seen these two guys stand side by side barefoot a thousand times before, Jorge has like 2.5inch on Yoel barefoot minimum.
Like i previously said Yoel's a guy that wears shoes which give him a height bump, same with Lawler. Robbie was taller than Askren at face off's but at least 2inch shorter barefoot in octagon. Both Rory and Nick towered over Robbie who's 173-4cm at best (my opinion)
Here checkout this video and tell me there isnt at least 4cm between Jorge and Yoel *Both are in shoes* (vid link:
Click Here )
Like i said it's obvious Jorge has at least 2.5inch on Yoel Barefoot.
Guest66 said on 31/Aug/19
@ConorFan, Rory is not just 5'11" to begin with, his official height is 6'0" and he can look close to it, same with Nick Diaz who's listed at nearly 6'0" on this website.
Click Here, Rory is obviously the taller man between these two, but is he "towering" over him ? No way, Robbie is looking pretty close to 5'10" to me. Also,
Click Here, here's Masvidal "towering" Yoel Romero.
ConorFan. said on 26/Aug/19
@Kaan K?ksal
No offence but you're delusional if you believe what you wrote. Alvarez wishes he was 5'7.5, the guy's 5'6 at most (167-8cm) Conor had about 5cm on him. Alvarez wears shoes that increase height, i know this for a fact because he was taller than Anthony Pettis at the weigh in face-off but much shorter in Octagon (Look at YouTube)
Although i havent looked into Justin Gaethje he looks about 5'10, i think 5'11 seems a little tall for him but I'll have a proper look later.
That pic of GSP with Conor is clearly at an angle, you can still tell GSP is taller if you look at shoulder + head height. GSP was taller than Khabib who has 2-3cm on Conor.
Daniel Cormier is a legit 177.5cm guy (5'9.8) and he's clearly taller than Khabib by at least 2-3cm, even in the video you can see he has an inch minimum on Khabib or even possibly more. Dont know why you think otherwise (pretty clear)
Your number's are completely off my man. If we go by your listing's DC would be 6ft lol.
Kaan K?ksal said on 25/Aug/19
@ConorFan.
Click Here
Look at this picture of GSP and Conor. Conor seems to be slouching with GSP standing tall and the height difference is an inch at most. So your ridiculous 5’7 McGregor claim is already out of the window.
Also, look at this faceoff from the Alvarez vs Gaethje fight:
Click Here
Gaethje looks 2 inches taller but Alvarez has an inch or so on him in footwear, Gaethje is listed at 5’11 and has always been a solid 5’10.5 to 5’11. With McGregor having atleast 1.5 inches on 5’7.5 Alvarez he is definitely a solid 5’9 fighter.
Khabib next to solid 5’10 cormier:
Click Here
Khabib had 3/4 of an inch on McGregor maybe 1 inch at most. Khabib is around 5’10 1/4 whereas McGregor is 5’9 to 5’9.25.
ConorFan. said on 25/Aug/19
@Guest66 Robbie got towered over by 5'11 Rory Macdonald also 5'11 Nick Diaz. And as for Yoel Romero i went with the Olympic listing's which was 174-5cm and thats the Max i gave him (legit 178-9cm Jorge Masvidal Towers him, you can go watch the clips or Google images to see that) i feel Yoel's a guy who only wears shoe's that give him a height bump.
Nate's atleast 184cm he's taller than Bisping.
@Kamb246 I'll admit that Conor's a tricky one to say, but this is how i look at it. Peter Queally (Conor's teammate) is listed 176cm pretty much everywhere and he is much shorter than 5'11 listed Gunnar Nelson and a little shorter than 5'10 flat Amir Makwani so 176cm seems right. The Mac life even did a video with him and Conor and listed Peter as 5'9 on the video. So if you go back and look at pics with Peter and Conor, you'll see theres a significant difference in height. Anywhere up to 3-4cm thats why i went with 172cm for Conor. Plus people who've met Khabib swear that he's 174cm max (although 175cm is possible for him) and there was atleast 2-3cm difference between them. So you have to think about all these things. Plus just like Yoel Conor strike's me as a guy who also only wears shoes that give him a height bump.
To quote Eddie Bravo "Look into it" lol
Guest66 said on 22/Aug/19
@ConorFan, So who has shrunk over the years ? Considering that the oldest on the list is Yoel Romero who's only 42, also him and Robbie Lawler at 174cm ? That's too low, both of these guys are 5'10" flat at least. Nate Diaz at 185cm is too high, though he doesn't seem to be under six foot, so a fraction over 6'0" is probably bang on the money, same story with Daren Till. While Tyrone Woodley can be a bit under 5'8", I really don't see Conor under 5'8" at all.

I don't think so, as that would mean he might be 172-3cm by afternoon which I am not convinced he is.
c-mo said on 9/Jun/19
Guest66 said on 20/May/19
@179, Close enough, but I think you’ve underlisted a bit most of these guys. Tony and Max seem to be very similar in height and both seem to be closer to 5’11” rather than 5’10”, GSP is rather 177cm than 176, I doubt Khabib is under 175cm, and Ben Askren can be anywhere between 178-180cm.
-------------------------
go to khabibs page . the user Ali183 said he and his brother met him and they both said he is 174cm max in the afternoon . he also posted a pic of his 181.4cm measured brother with khabib
night heights :
khabib = 174cm . MAYBE 174.5
Conor : 173 or maybe 173.5
DC : 177cm or slightly above maybe ...but I wouldnt be surprised if he was slightly under either like 176.5cm because user Kourosh has seen him in a training session and said DC is around 176.5cm
GSP : 177cm . maybe 177.5cm but I doubt he is taller than that . 178cm at night I would already say is a bit unlikely

Shane Carwin, billed at 6 ft 5, showed, in the staredown with Mir, that he prefers to cut height rather than weight like many other UFC figheters do.
He decided to cut 5 inches to his height to be ok at the weight in.

He did claim 5ft 9 on twitter, but may be under that a bit.
NvrPaysAtttn said on 11/Jan/19
No clue why people compare Conor as drastically taller than Floyd when 5’9 slouched is basically 5’7.... 2 inches is literally nothing. I think the average guess is very accurate - a solid 5ft 8.5.
Trevor Long said on 5/Dec/18
5'9 flat for khabib. 5'8.25 for mcgregor
Fed said on 4/Dec/18
Solid 5’9, he looks much taller than guys of his division. Against Floyd his punches were clearly going down to Mayweather’s body...
He can go to 5’8.75” after a hard fight (against Nate Diaz for example). Solid 5’9 for me.
Zimi said on 27/Nov/18
Conor is marginally taller than his Dad as seen here -
Click Here and Kanye West who describes himself as 5’8 is also marginally taller than Conor’s Dad as seen here -
Click Here. I think 5’8 - 5’8.5 is the most accurate height for Conor and his listed height in Cage warriors would back this up as seen here -
Click Here I think his long reach gives him the impression of being taller than he actually is.

Khabib and Conor looked like they're almost the same height in the cage and some people claim Khabib is a legit 5'10. After each fight I'm more convinced that McGregor's closer to 5'9.5 than 5'9, let alone 5'8.5. He was confirmed to be 171 pounds in the cage by his nitrutionist and he looked very skinny. He can't be just 5'8.5 or even 5'9. Let's not forget he was once measured 5'11 barefoot by an UFC staff on record. There was even a video about it.
buut said on 21/Oct/18
I think 5'8.5 is fair I think he could wake up 5'9 or a touch over just like myself and has a low of 5'8.25

ConorFan. said on 11/Oct/18
I agree with @Mario6' Conor is closer to 172cm than 174cm as listed especially since Khabib himself is 175cm in comparison. Conor also did used to get listed as 5'8 back in his CageWarrior days and Sherdog still got him listed like that, which is proof. Imo Conor needs to be downgraded to 172.8cm or 173cm.

Seriously though... 5’81/2 & 5’9 are the exact same thing lol cmon... I personally don’t think he’s 5’9 barefoot, he def looks barely over 5’8. No shorter though - I think what throws people off is he looks like he has no neck. This guess is pretty accurate.
MarcAE said on 2/Oct/18
@Loon McGregor is wearing 1.5 inch heel dress shoes while Khabib is wearing sneakers which probably give him half an inch - 3/4s of an inch boost, and McGregor is still a half inch shorter. McGregor is definitely around the 5'8.5-75 range. Nowhere near 5'10.
Christian 6'5 3/8" said on 29/Sep/18
@Loon
That pic is a bit tricky, but Khabib still looks taller. You can tell that Conor has a noticeable camera advantage.
BT said on 28/Sep/18
@Lew: I put the line where the top of his head is, as that's where you measure from, not where the hairline is placed on the forehead. Have another look at the picture of his shaved head from a straight angle, and not one where he is standing very close to the camera and the angle is low. In your picture the line for the top of McGregor's head is simply too low, and still, it's from a low angle. I have no bias, but it seems like maybe you do.
Lew Alcindor said on 27/Sep/18
@BT the picture you added of mcgregor's shaved head is irrelevant since it's a different angle where his chin is down and tilting his head forward. no need to be a rocket scientist to figure out that if you tilt your head forward the back of your head is more prominent, and if you tilt your head all the way back your forehead would be the highest point. since, in the original picture, his head is in a neutral position neither forward or back, your comparison makes no sense. and you're adding an invisible inch on top of his head that just isn't there
Lew Alcindor said on 27/Sep/18
@BT
in my original picture
Click Here i put the line on mcgregor's head exactly where his hair starts and head finishes, about 1 cm above his hairline, as is shown to be accurate here.
Click Here . again, you putting the top of mcgregor's head an entire INCH above his hairline is just laughable bias
Lew Alcindor said on 27/Sep/18
@BT
are you aware that hair is not part of someone's head ? I'm asking because it doesn't seem so , look at mcgregor's forehead and where you drew the line. it's absolutely laughable
Loon said on 27/Sep/18
I think McGregor's actually taller than Khabib who people claim a legit 5'10 but I don't know. I feel like Conor's around 5'9.5 and in this photo you can see their footwear. McGregor's leaning on straight Khabib and he still seems tiny bit taller.

Levi said on 26/Sep/18
Lew that is still a bad angle and your line isn't the top of his head. You should choose pictures from the video stream where you can see both their whole body and therefore stances and where it is from the side on.
The angle is very deceptive, from the side it was clear the difference in height was minor. This is again demonstrated by the eye level difference which is at most a cm.
Lew Alcindor said on 25/Sep/18
@Levi
face to face. really ? 1 cm ?
Click Here
is he slouching on this one maybe ? or is the angle too straight and you would prefer to pick up from below them that doesn't show the top of their heads ?

Guest66 said on 25/Sep/18
Khabib was about 1in taller, pretty much as expected. Conor’s reach of 74in might be an exaggeration, as he also got “measured” once at 5’11” if I’m not mistaken, he has visually long arms for his height though, I’ll give him that.
Original said on 25/Sep/18
174 McGregor vs 176 Khabib.
Levi said on 24/Sep/18
Lew
You chose a poor picture to compare Conor and Khabib, Conor is leaning forwards and Khabib standing straight. When they were stood straight face to face, Khabib had a cm on Conor. This fits in with 177cm Daniel Cormier being at least a cm taller than Khabib. If Conor is 174cm Khabib is at best 176, but more likley is Conor is 174-175 and Khabib is 175-176.
BT said on 24/Sep/18
@Lew Alcindor: I'd say they were quite close after looking at footage from a few different angles. In that exact screenshot perhaps there's a 1.25 inch difference, but that's not the impression I got after looking at all the footage. A lot depends on the angle, and of course footwear. Conor's dress shoe looked pretty standard, and Khabib was wearing some kind of trainer. Someone with more knowledge about footwear should have a look at that, but I believe it's possible that Khabib had a slight footwear advantage.
I feel Conor is good at 5'8.5, but I can see a case for 5'8.25 as well. We will see them barefoot toghether soon enough, if Khabib then looks comfortably taller I'd think about downgrading Conor, because I can't see Khabib much over 5'9.
Animus said on 24/Sep/18
If McGregor is 5'8½, I'd say Khabib is 5'9¼. What do you say, Rob? 5'9 flat is also possible for Khabib.
Editor Rob
I'd say somewhere around 5ft 9, not as tall as 5ft 10
Walmart Ca$$ier said on 24/Sep/18

Hi Rob,
I definitely think that you must add Khabib Nurmagomedov and Dana White. On October 6th there will be the fight, thousand of people will search for Khabib height on the web; so more visitors for you.
I strongly believe that Khabib is around 1 in taller than MAcgregor; Conor is generally a lift wearer.
Conor 5 ft 8.25
Khabib 5 ft 9.25
Dana White 5 ft 10.25

Rob Connor Mcgregor looks like he is around 175 cm to me in all the pictures and especially after face off with Khabib, who is lifted as 178cm but most likely around 176 and Connor Mcgregor only looks about 1 cm shorter if that
BT said on 10/Sep/18
@Editor Rob: Will you add Khabib? Think Conor and him will be pretty close in height when they finally face off, maybe Khabib with the slight edge.
Animus said on 8/Sep/18
Tyron Woodley has admitted to being 5ft8in, even though he claims 5ft9in. It's not unreasonable since almost everyone, including athletes in the UFC, claim a taller height of about 1in.

Hey Rob what do you think about the height difference between Conor McGregor and his long time teammate Peter Queally? (Pic Link:

Editor Rob
He might be close to his claim...177cm possible.
sb said on 2/Aug/18
I think this is dead on. He has very long limbs and impeccable posture, I don't even think about his height when I watch him, even when he fought Nate Diaz who is a tall guy I didn't register much size/height difference.
Sometimes this makes me think he's taller than he is, along with his pictures alongside GSP, Tyron Woodley and Yoel Romero. Though their height is probably overrated, as is the case with many MMA fighters. I'll go with 5'8 and 3/4.
hotdogeater said on 1/Aug/18
Rob, how tall do you see Tyron Woodley being? He looks to me to be around 5'7.5, maybe 5'8.
Editor Rob
Well he does claim 5ft 9, but I ain't sure about that. 5ft 8-8.5 sounds believable.
6'0" said on 21/Jul/18
I'm inclined to say that he's closer to 5'9" than 5'8". He wears flats alot of the time which distorts his percepted height. Very confident compared to Most 5'9" guys who wear thicks and claim 5'11". Conor is probably 5'8.75" barefoot and rounds up.
Monkey knees said on 16/Jul/18
Watching him walk to the ring more than once he really does float around 5'8. Its a pretty average height for UFC fighters etc. At least UFC dont add 4 inches to their fighters heights like WWE etc...

Hello Rob,
Recently Conor met boxer Amir Khan. You can find two very short video of them together here (one is at the top of the page and the other is near the bottom) as well as pictures (at one point in the video they stand face to face and at another point they stand side to side):
Click Here
The angle in both videos is a bit weird, but even taking that into account I think that Conor seems to be at least half an inch taller than Amir if not more. You have Amir at 5'8.25" and Conor at 5'8.5". It seems, given these new videos, either Amir is a flat 5'8" or else Conor is a weak 5'9" (5'8.75").
What do you think?
Editor Rob
It's possible Conor is about half inch or so taller...without knowing if they have similar sneakers on.
ConorFan. said on 1/Jun/18
Rob if you put 5'8.5 as his evening height then its to high imo. Conor is definetly shorter than 5'8.5 in the evening. More around 5'8 flat i believe. Here's a pic of Conor and 176cm Peter Queally (pic link:
Click Here |
Click Here ) both guys are barefoot also. Conor's closer to 173cm imo. 174cm in morning Max.
Canson said on 22/May/18
This seems high. Maybe a strong 5’8” but not as high as 5’8.5. Looks 1.5” taller than Floyd who’s weak 5’7. So 5’8.25 could be a better listing to start
5'9 dude said on 10/May/18

What conor lowest height rob?
Editor Rob
I think he probably doesn't fall much under 5ft 8.5, I think the lowest 8.25 is what I thought in the past, but overall I feel 8.5 is a fair shout for him.
Myself said on 11/Apr/18
Rob, you said in USA the average height is 5'9, but that is without taking into consideration the race; Connor is a white male, and in USA he should be 4 cm under the average height (5'10), a category he wouldn't completely fall in anymore...
But if still talking about average height, do you think the figure that is usually used to estimate it is obtained by morning or shoe measurements, at least partly? (Or maybe this is a factor more in "self reports"?)
Editor Rob
According to those CDC papers, average white is like 177cm, so a decent 5ft 9 5/8ths range. Connor would be about 1 inch or so smaller than average white, but the average American is 5ft 9 and 1/8th range.
I do not know if the research does proper proportions for any of the racial classes they used. Given the Hispanic and Mexican-American population is increasing, it means (given their averages are 171cm) the overall American will possibly shrink under 5ft 9 in the future.
From what I understand, the data is properly recorded to 1mm using digital stadiometers.

@angle
In American police wouldn't bother writing 5 ft 8 and half inch they would just rounded to 5 ft 9 because they just take approximate measurement

Seen him before near the MGM and definitely is a 5 foot 8 guy. Don’t let his long arms and legs throw you off.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 8/Apr/18
He's easily above 5ft8. I don't think he drops below this mark. Really could measure near 5ft9 on a good day. He never looks short when standing with others

Angle said on 7/Apr/18
Don't know how legit it is but i saw an arrest report on twitter stating he was 5'9. Lets assume he was wearing shoes during this that puts him anywhere from 5'7.75 - 5'8 depending on how thick his shoes were.

@conorfan
rob himself wakes up at nearly 175 cm, measured on the stadiometer on video, and claims 172.7 cm (5'8), which he doesn't even ever fall down to. The heights on the site are evening/lowest heights, which is your true height.
Zineddine said on 31/Mar/18
Hey rob, do you think Conor can drop under 174 cm after a match or game or hard training ? If yes
d how much
Editor Rob
Maybe after a 10 round fight he can drop 1/8th to 1/4 under 174cm.
ConorFan. said on 31/Mar/18
@Shaq I'm roughly 5'9 (174cm / 175cm tall) and my height never really changes during the day. Some days im 175cm some days its closer to 174cm but never much off that mark. So i dont buy that Conor losses over an inch of height in the evening, doesn't seem logical. Btw i dont know about all these height listings being evening heights on the site, im not aware of that so could Editor Rob plz confirm if its true.
Shaq said on 29/Mar/18
@big little
we use evening heights here. so conor's supposed evening / night time height is 5'8.5 according to this listing, and we assume he wakes up at 5'9+. if you are 5'8.5 on a good morning, you're more than likely 5'7.75 or around it using this standard
ConorFan said on 29/Mar/18
@Shaq - you mean theres at least 4 or 5 inches between Conor and Chad. Because no way in hell is that 3inches lol, Chads gotta be like 5'4 at best.
ConorFan said on 29/Mar/18
@big Little - Conor is around the 5'8.5 mark maybe a little shorter or taller, who knows. But one thing i realised is Conor's reach was listed as 72inch the shortest and 74inch the longest, i believe Conor's reach is 73inch because he has big hands (along with his wide shoulder's and long arms) which affects overal reach. He even said in a old interview that he has a 73inch reach, so thats what im going on. Plus 74inch just seems a little ridiculous tbh too big, although not impossible. Also there could be numerous reasons why you dont look your height could be posture, or maybe you have a really small frame. Or maybe you're not as tall as you think you are, you know a lot of people dont measure height accurately or convert cm to Feet correctly, Just sayin.
Big little said on 27/Mar/18
Like the comments, most people seem on. IMO Conor is definitely 5’8.5” or better. Most likely better, I am 5’8.5” on a good morning, have a 72” reach @ 170lbs walking weight (I train as well) and I get called short all the time. People always refer to me as 5’6 or 5’7 which I have to prove often I’m 5’8. Conor doesn’t really seem short or like he gets this feedback. Gotta be as tall or better
ConorFan said on 23/Mar/18
@GaryG - Very true, i agree with you, all those short guys in the division that lie about their height (Cub, Frankie, Aldo, Mendes and Siver) all got exposed. And when it comes to height some people can be straight up in denial, so if someone rounds up half an inch thats not really a problem for me either.
GaryG said on 20/Mar/18
5' 8 1/2" seems right on the money. His 5'9" claim isn't really even an exaggeration, just the logical way of rounding to the nearest whole number. The funny thing is that by being (relatively) honest about his height he blew the whole lid off of all of the 5'4ish guys in his division who were claiming 5'7 (Mendes, Aldo, Siver) but only came up to about his chin.
