Why are UFC/MMA fighters so short? (especially the top ones) maybe overtraining in martial arts causes your body to suck all the nutrients and nothing is left for growth?

Weight classes and averagesWhy are UFC/MMA fighters so short? (especially the top ones) maybe overtraining in martial arts causes your body to suck all the nutrients and nothing is left for growth?
weight classes don't matter because there are skinny tallish guys too like O-malley fighting in BantamweightWeight classes and averages
Yeah that makes senseshorter = less unused space,
being too tall isn't good for athleticism
thats why the best heavyweight fighters in the world are 6'4 max its the peak athleticism height
average in which country? worldwide?Average 170lbs fighter (weight class which most people will fall into) is taller than average male.
I’m going by usa as most are from usa however it’s above average for the other countries which make up a large amount of fighters (brazil Russia) as well. But it’s very likely a lot of taller and very athletic people would prefer to pursue basketball football etc over getting brain damage for money.average in which country? worldwide?
combat sport is the most athletic type of sports and it is not even close, mma literally represents athleticism it is the ultimative measureI’m going by usa as most are from usa however it’s above average for the other countries which make up a large amount of fighters (brazil Russia) as well.

I fight and agree with you but 9/10 6’3 athletic guys would prefer their chances in basketball or something like that due to risk and money of mma.combat sport is the most athletic type of sports and it is not even close, mma literally represents athleticism it is the ultimative measure
