Fighter bioStefan Struve – General Profile
Stefan Struve is a retired Dutch mixed martial artist who competed in the UFC’s heavyweight division. Standing at 7 feet tall, he was one of the tallest fighters in UFC history and earned the nickname “Skyscraper” for his towering presence inside the Octagon.
MMA Career
Struve began his professional career in the Netherlands and made his UFC debut in 2009. Over a decade in the promotion, he recorded numerous memorable victories and became known for his unique combination of size, skill, and finishing ability. His career also included struggles with health issues, and he officially retired in 2021 after a long tenure in the heavyweight division.
Fighting Style
Struve’s fighting style leveraged his exceptional reach and length. He was versatile on the ground—using his long limbs for submissions—and competent in striking, often looking to use his height and timing to land decisive blows. Despite his enormous size, he combined wrestling, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, and striking, making him a difficult matchup for any heavyweight.
