ESPN MMA writers give their best all time KO

[Thaijitsu612]

I don't think it was that great. More like weird and a fluke. It had more to do with Korean Zombie being sloppy going straight at Yair like that.

I think weird describes this ko more than anything. A great KO to me is when a guy is still showing great defense yet you were still able to break them down.

To me it was just a case of KZ got sloppy at the end just probably wanted to finish the fight with a brawl we've seen him do many times.

So you think most fighters could have landed that elbow? If it was mostly kz being sloppy they should be able to

 

[Te Huna Matata]

Definitely a great KO but greatest? No.

Barboza on Etim
Kohler on Judson
Henderson on Bisping
Machida on Couture
Hall on Cella

All better off thet of my head.

 

[Exarch01]

All time winner for most ironic KO

CroCop - Igor.

I give props to Yair for creativity it was good. All I'm saying it's not the greatest ever like people are claiming. I know it was right on the buzzer. But to me it resembles like when your playing pool or something, the ball you are aiming for is at a weird angle so you just smash a shot hoping for the best and it happens to go in now you can pretend it was all skill and that you all planned it but really it was just a fluke you shot at the right place at the right time and nine times out of ten I bet you wouldn't do it again same thing with this knockout in my opinion... it was a fluke

 

[Exarch01]

Always a top contender for most horrifying KO. It's not a "walk off KO," so much as Tank just leaving him for dead.

 

[Toxxus]

Anderson vs Vitor
Hendo vs Bisping

Are always the 2 KOs I first think of

Same here.

I saw that fight on PPV and I legit thought the guy was dead or had a broken neck at a minimum. Such a crushing KO.

 

[BigTruck]

Still is and forever will be my favorite knockout. Straight up 13 punch combo...

Who's Alex knocking out here?

 

[gono btw]

Vitor Gracie vs Wand.(UFC)

 

[An Uncertain Choice]

Still my favorite KO

i remember that, amazing come from behind, berry shouldnt have let down his guard.

 

[Dead Kennedy]

Who's Alex knocking out here?

Ricardo “The Mutant” Morais...

[mmaElite53]

When Wand knocked out Saku and he fell in slow mo.

 

[Ramon Antonio]

This one is just nice.

 

[L0ki]

Still my favorite KO

That fight was insane.

Pretty sure about 99% of the refs would have stopped it in favor of Berry.

 

[Ken Fresno]

I guess you have to distinguish between best all time and best eva
