Israel Adesanya is one of the slickest strikers in the MMA world, before that he was also one of the slickest strikers in the kickboxing world. He has got some sick dance moves on him too and what is more, he isn't afraid to challenge fighters two weight division above his own - truly, he has got the making of a true champ.
About Israel Adesanya's Height
Israel Adesanya is currently the tallest fighter in the middle-weight division of UFC. That along with his enormous 80-inch reach has given him an enormous advantage over his fellow fighters, maybe that's the reason (along with his skills and some genetic advantage) for his success.
UFC lists Adesanya at a most respectful six feet four inches. Now, we don't agree with everything UFC says, and that is true in this case as well - most respectfully of course. Israel looks just a bit shorter than that, maybe by an inch, then Israel would be taller than someone like Jan Blachowicz who is almost 6'2" and slightly shorter than biggies like Stipe Miocic (6'3.5"), Jon Jones (almost 6'4"), and Francis Ngannou (true 6'4" guy).
The real height of Israel Adesanya is 6'3" (190.5 cm)
