Best record of stone cold KOs in the UFC?

[Robbocop]

Which fighter has:

1. The highest number of stone cold KOs in the UFC?
2. The best ratio of stone cold KOs to fights in the UFC?

For the purpose of this question, a stone cold KO is when the opponent is unconscious at the end of the fight due to strikes. This differs from "KO" because often when a fight is declared KO, the loser is still conscious.

Ngannou was 4 stone cold KOs out of 14 fights. That's 4/14, 2/7, 28.6%

Anyone have more stone cold KOs or a better % than that? I think some possible candidates are Derrick Lewis or maybe even Josh Emmett.

Machida had 4 stone cold KOs but out of 30 fights. Equal number as Ngannou but many more fights.
4/30, 2/15, 13.3%

Maybe Tank Abbott.

He bodied a few dudes and didn't have a ton of fights.

Nelmark and Matua come to mind.
Were there others?

Edit: no, tank had a lot more fights than I remembered.


How about Houston alexander?

If you counted him getting KTFO then he may win for highest percentage because I recall him winning and losing by completely full body seizure KO

Josh Emmett has 3 KO wins where they didn't fucking move if you don't count spasms. That's out of 14 UFC fights for an impressive 21.4% and from a FW.

When Jeremy Stephens KO people at FW, they don’t fucking move.

and Jeremy Stephens flatlined him. Stephens KO's are pretty diffinitive.

Still think he should’ve taken a step down in competition. Was good enough to be ranked at the time he got cut

WTF is that guy?

When Jeremy shoves guys during weigh ins, they do fucking move

Do we count only fights in the UFC, or can we count orgs that merged? If we do, this guy has a few, but not necessarily percent-wise.

Vitor and Wandy would have a few as well.

 

[kingmob6]

Derick Lewis

 

[jeff7b9]

I said him though...

Right.

But he should be on the list.

I was just thinking UFC but I agree Vovchanchyn is a boss, hands of stone.
