On Saturday night Joaquin Buckley knocked out Impa Kasanganay with one of the most spectacular shots seen in the promotion's history.
Kasanganay caught his opponents foot from an attempted kick but Buckley finished the fight with a spinning heel kick, with his other foot still in Kasanganay's possession.
The clip went viral and had many asking if it was the greatest KO ever. Essentially Sports have put together a top 10, with Masvidal leading the way.
10. Mauricio Shogun Rua vs Lyoto Machida - UFC 113

What does @GamebredFighter have up his sleeve for #UFC251? :smirk: pic.twitter.com/5Z6VdvRhUJ
The incredible timing, precision and calculated nature of Masvidal's KO is why Gamebred is top of this list, whilst Conor McGregor's attempt against Jose Aldo is the quickest and best title knockout on the list.
We aren't sure exactly where Buckley's attempt belongs on here but you only have to look at the super slow-mo to see how accurate and impressive his shot was.
