About Francis Ngannou's Rock Solid Height
There is only one way to put this -- Francis Ngannou is built like a brick shithouse on steroids. He is built like a Rock more than The Rock. Francis is tall and strong, so strong that one punch of him is enough to put down anyone -- just any human being! Francis is so big that even giant Shaquille O'Neal (7 ft in his prime) didn't look so big next to him.
Francis Ngannou's height has always been listed in UFC as 6 feet 4 inches. But there is talk in the town that seeing as Ngannou looks taller than other 6'4" guys like Alistair Overeem, Junior Dos Santos, Israel Adesanya, and Stipe Miocic, Ngannou must be taller than 6'4" -- he must be at least 6'5".
But we don't think that's the case. The thing is -- all the above-mentioned guys aren't really 6'4". Junior Dos Santos and Overeem are 6'2.5", Israel Adesanya is not even 6'3", and Stipe Miocic is around 6' 3.5". Only Jon Jones and Ciryl Gane seem to be around 6'4" (Ciryl is slightly over it).
We don't know why UFC does this. Perhaps it is taking a leaf out of WWE's book, where a 5'10" tall Kurt Angle is listed as 6'2" and a 6'3" The Rock as 6'5"...
Anyway, after looking at Francis Ngannou, standing with the above-mentioned big guys, we think Francis is 6'4" and not any taller than that.
The real height of Francis Ngannou is
6 ft 4 in (193 cm)

Just do what you do. Sometimes you do well, and sometimes you do wrong, but you have to just be able to deal with yourself and move forward.
