We’re sure you’ll love our list so sit back and enjoy some of the best knockouts ever. Let’s go!

1. Conor McGregor vs Jose Aldo (UFC 194)

This was one of the most hyped fights of all time. It was seen as a contest between the raw animalistic power of McGregor and the technically perfect and world-class MMA exponent Jose Aldo.

Many thought that the McGregor hype train was just about to be derailed. Instead, it went off into the stratosphere. McGregor showed that he was able to walk the walk, as well as talk the talk.

Even the biggest McGregor fans wouldn’t have predicted what happened, especially in a division that isn’t known for its spectacular knockouts. Most thought it was going to be a close fight but the Irishman would have other ideas. 

After just 13 seconds, the highly anticipated fight was over as McGregor landed his infamous left hand on Aldo’s chin. People were expecting an epic fight but instead got to watch a stunning knockout. It wasn’t the most spectacular knockout in UFC history but given the magnitude of the fight and the time on the clock, it was one of the greatest. 

2. Jorge Masvidal vs Ben Askren (UFC 239)

This knockout is not only epic for the way it happened but also the story behind it. Masvidal went into the fight angry as in Askren’s previous fight, he won a controversial stoppage decision where the ref thought his opponent Robbie Lawler was out cold when he wasn’t.
