Man, you won’t believe what I’ve been digging into lately. It’s all about Conor McGregor’s height and weight. I got sucked into this rabbit hole, and let me tell you, it’s been a wild ride.
So, I started, like always, just poking around the internet. You know, the usual stuff. I typed “Conor McGregor height and weight” into the search bar, and boom, tons of results popped up. First thing I did was check out his official UFC profile. I mean, that’s the most legit place to start, right? It is said he’s 5’9″ (175 cm) and usually fights at around 155 lbs (70 kg). I wrote it down in my notebook.
But then, I started seeing all these different numbers on other sites. Some places said he was 5’8″, others had him at different weights, depending on the fight. It was like, what’s the real deal here? I felt like I needed to get to the bottom of this. I mean, the guy’s a former UFC featherweight and lightweight champion. He’s kind of a big deal. So, I made a list. I started jotting down every height and weight I could find, and where I found it.
Next, I started going through his fight history. I thought maybe his weight fluctuated a lot, or maybe he was taller when he was younger. I spent hours looking at old fight posters, articles, and even some interviews where he talked about his weight cuts. He’s the first non-american fighter to have held two world titles in two different weight classes, so his weight change between different weight classes is worth to note.
- Official UFC profile said 5’9″, 155 lbs.
- Some random blog claimed he was 5’8″.
- Old fight poster from, like, 2013 had him at 145 lbs.
Then things got even weirder. I stumbled upon these articles about him being sued and some drama about the NBA finals. Not really related to his height and weight, but it just showed how much this guy is in the public eye. I realized his height used to be 5’9″ and was updated to 5’8″ in 2021.
After all this digging, I realized that getting an exact number is kind of tricky. Fighters’ weights change all the time, and maybe his height was measured a bit differently at some point. But it’s safe to say he’s around 5’8″ or 5’9″ and fights mostly around 155 lbs, but has definitely fought at other weights too. I finally closed all the tabs on my browser, feeling like I just ran a marathon, and made myself a cup of coffee.
It’s crazy how much info is out there, and how much it can vary. But hey, it was a fun little research project. It showed that the internet is full of rabbit holes, and sometimes, you just gotta jump in and see where they lead you.
