Hendricks & Lombard got me thinking about this. Especially lately w/ all the huge MWs, many who are well over 6' and look like they could easily fight at LHW (some of these guys did previously).
Can you think of the last UFC MW fight before Lombard/Hendricks where 2 guys both under 5' 10" squared off?
Suloev vs Baroni?
Do I win?
^ You may very well be. Nice job. Definitely the early leader in the clubhouse.
Man, has it really been almost 15 years?
Was Palhares vs Lombard at MW? App keeps crashing as soon as I try look for it.
RepsOne -Yes this was at middleweightWas Palhares vs Lombard at MW? App keeps crashing as soon as I try look for it.
JoeMimic -Leben Wand or Akiyama?
Close but Wand 5' 11", Aki 5' 10" & Leben 5' 11" (Leben would probably only be 5' 8" if not for head size)

Great catch! This might be the winner. Occurred in 2012.
I was thinking maybe Palhares vs. Pierce (5' 8") which was more recent. However, that fight was at WW. And it got Palhares kicked out of the UFC, despite winning.
Isn't hendo sub 6'?
He just fought Lombard last year.
Oops. Misread title. Nvm.

How tall then, in your opinion?
yoel vs tim?

Close. Kennedy is listed at 5' 11". By I think that is pushing it - I'd seen him listed at 5' 10" before, and that may have been a stretch.
Hendo is not over 5'10. I've stood next too him a couple of different times.

I have, too. 5' 11" seemed legit to me. Guess we have different perceptions of height.
Hendo hunches a lot.
