Carlos condit & urijah faber?

Question

Carlos Condit is 170lbs, and Urijah Faber is 145lbs. Why is it that Carlos looks smaller in appearance. Is it because the height difference, Carlos is taller... is it as simple as that?

Now i've never seen both in person, I'm just going by pics and what i've seen on tv. I'm just curious why this is. :)

Please and thank you!

Not only is Carlos taller, but I think he's much more lean than Urijah.  Both are badass, though.

Strength-wise (not power, but push-and-pull), I would bet that Urijah might even lift more weight than Carlos.  I could be wrong, but I think Faber has a much more decorated wrestling background (which is probably why he's semi-stocky).

With only about 20 lbs weight and 7 inches of height difference, they are closer in weight than height - which means you're probably right.
