When examining the tallest UFC fighters, it’s best to start at the top — literally.
Listed at 7-feet even on UFC.com, Stefan Struve is officially the tallest fighter in the history of the Las Vegas-based promotion. Competing at a height that rivals most post players in the NBA has only produced mixed results in the Octagon for the man known as “Skyscraper,” however.
The 28-year-old Dutchman is 11-6 during his UFC tenure, including a technical knockout triumph over current heavyweight champion Stipe Miocic in September 2012, and victories over Brazilian veterans Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira and Antonio Silva.
