Tough as a nail mixed martial artist, Joanna Jedrzejczyk (a very hard to pronounce name), is listed by UFC at 5'6" - which is probably slightly incorrect - this is not the first height UFC has got wrong nor it will be the last. We have some legitimate reasons to believe that Joanna is very similar in height to Ronda Rousey who - though very big in WWE - in real life is somewhere around 5'5" to 5'6".
After comparing Joanna to people like Weili Zhang (5'3"), Valentina Shevchenko (5'4"), Ronda Rousey (5'5.5"), and some other fighters we think Joanna is around 5'5" in real life.
The height of Joanna Jedrzejczyk is 5'5" or 165 cm

Data painstakingly extracted more or less from Wikipedia and some other sources. Expect up to half an inch of discrepancy from real life. All heights are supposed to belong to relatively young people of the urban areas, so they may come out slightly over the real average height.
