Every UFC Walk-Off KO That Made Us Yell “It’s Over!” 😳

Video: Watch the most iconic UFC walk-off knockouts ever caught on camera. From Sean O'Malley to Max Holloway, these KO artists knew the fight was over before the ref did.

Sometimes, when the shot lands just right, there's no need for ground and pound, no need for follow-up chaos—just a walk-off and a stunned crowd. The video above delivers the most unforgettable UFC walk-off knockouts, each one a raw display of precision, timing, and cold-blooded finishing instincts.

We kick things off with Joo Sang Yoo flattening Jeka Saragih with a clean right hand that barely needed a second glance. Moments later, Yorgan De Castro shows why heavyweight power needs no elaboration, flooring Justin Tafa with a single counter shot.

Lyoto Machida's front kick KO of Vitor Belfort is textbook karate timing—calculated, silent, and final. Fast-forward to Sweden where Alexander Gustafsson finishes Glover Teixeira with a stunning uppercut series in front of his home crowd.

Josh Emmett put Bryce Mitchell to sleep in Cape Town, while veteran Robbie Lawler walked off against Niko Price in a classic farewell moment. Rising star Ilia Topuria crushed Jai Herbert with a step-in hook that echoed through the O2.

Freakishly calm, Lando Vannata and James Irvin both followed up their highlight-reel finishes by simply walking away, no follow-up necessary. Cody Garbrandt's buzzer-beating bomb against Raphael Assunção remains one of the coldest walk-offs ever filmed.

Jiri Prochazka delivered a spinning elbow from the underworld against Dominick Reyes, while Sean O'Malley reminded fans he’s as accurate as he is flashy, stopping Eddie Wineland with surgical precision.

Even a controversial moment made the list—Marlon Moraes iced Aljamain Sterling with a knee in a blink. Then came Cesar Almeida and his calm destruction of Abdul Razak Alhassan. Max Holloway's BMF finish over Justin Gaethje? Poetry in motion.

Beneil Dariush and Nick Diaz each found their moment of clarity mid-brawl, while Holloway again returns with his walk-off over The Korean Zombie—a true veteran sending off another warrior.

Heavyweights did their part too. Mark Hunt's uppercut to Roy Nelson might still be traveling, while Leon Edwards' head kick KO of Kamaru Usman was the rare mix of Hail Mary and sniper fire.

Let’s not forget the art in violence—Edson Barboza's spinning wheel kick against Terry Etim is still shown in every KO montage for good reason. And Michael Chandler's front kick KO of Tony Ferguson? That one's etched in MMA history.
