12 Hardest Hitters In UFC Today

Gregory Payan/AP/Press Association ImagesIt's something fans love to debate: Who hits the hardest in the UFC? There are plenty of "big" names in the UFC who fit the bill. You could realistically list just the heavyweight division - but where would be the fun in that? We know the big men hit hard, and there will a number of them listed throughout this article, but we'll also examine at least one heavy hitter from every division in the UFC (with the exception of the women's bantamweight division, and our apologies to them, but the answer there is Rousey or maybe Cat, since Cyborg isn't in the company). And while you may not think of flyweights or bantamweights as possessing knock-out power, there are unquestionably some that do. Lets take a look at who can knock an opponent into the front row.

12. Flyweight: Jon Dodson

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OoLeoLL9fFQ The smallest weight class in the UFC isn't exactly known for being home to heavy hitters, but Jon Dodson is one of a small (no pun intended) handful of 125'ers who hold legitimate one-punch knock-out power. He used that knock-out power to KO Darrell Montague at UFC 166 last October. He also holds several TKO victories in the UFC, including a TKO win over T.J. Dillashaw to win The Ultimate Fighter 14 - the same T.J. Dillashaw who would go on to defeat Renan Barao and win the UFC bantamweight championship at UFC 173. You know, if flyweight doesn't work out for Dodson, maybe he should consider going back up to bantamweight.
