Default UFC fighter's Profile Heights

I was just on the UFC height and I noticed that many of the fighters have different a different height displayed in the pulldown list than in their profile after you click their name.

Which one is right? It is sually a difference of 1 to 2 inches. I was thinking tha tthe shorter one is their real height, but y would they even include that if they wanted everyone to think that they were taller? Just a thought.

It's more then likely just an issue on their website. They probably have more then one source for the fighter info... ie. multiple databases. So each page maybe be pointing to a different source. And who knows where the database is gettings its info. A database is only useful if the information is kept up to date and current otherwise you end up with problems like this. Not to mention the web site needs to be looked at to make sure all pages are pulling from one source.

I know the UFC made some "web" changes a few months back... either a new host, more bandwidth or better equipment... these changes could have caused their problems.
