This doesnt necessarily mean people who have first round finishes. Sometimes the skill level disparity is just
Too great...I mean guys who are just have a nack for putting guys away earlier or just being terrifying early in the fight.
Melvin Manhoef
Mike kyle
Johny hendricks

Etc.
 
First two that come to mind: Lombard and Alvarez.

To a slightly lesser extent, Paul Harris.
 
True paul harris will pull guard as soon as he gets a hold of you and take a leg
 
Carwin is first minute GOAT.

Overeem is maybe #2.

Baroni was always good for about a minute or a minute and a half.
 
Vitor Belfort.
Recently, Konstantin Erokhin (fights in the UFC this Saturday).
 
guys like mike kyle are especially dangerous,they got nothing to lose and got the firepower to do damage,look at his fight with bigfoot,he almost won,and he was a huge underdog.
 
i def agree with some of other choices in here too. Usually too,if they dont get you early,they tend to NOT get you later,at least not by a stoppage. They stop guys who are dry and not "awake"
 
Guillard and I'd even argue Lauzon is very dangerous in the first minute/round.
 
Guillard
Lauzon
Vitor
Paul Harris
BJ (might just be the skill level thing though)
Pettis
Cerrone
Hendricks
Maia
 
Fedor will def finish you immediatley if you dont come up with a reason for him not to do that lol
 

If curling up into a fetal ball, grimacing and tapping is considered dangerous, then yes, Bob Sapp is without question one of the most dangerous fighters of all time in the first minute.
 
Krazy Horse Bennett is the king of the first minute (in back stage brawls)
