So, what is the minimum lower weight class fighter does it take to 1 Punch KO an average chinned HW

A gal like Michelle Waterson could probably do it. With just a jab too.

Explosive Lightweights can.

Roger Heurta KO'd some 250lb football player in a street fight.

Crazy Horse KO'd a probably 220lb Wand supposedly.

Manoef weighed in at 185lbs against some big HW's like Slowinski and knocked them dead.

I just got a herniated disc by watching that
 
Probably 170. After that doesn't seem like the punch you dead guys are around much. Who's the hardest punches at 155 Alexander hernandez? 145 Jeremy Stephens?

170 has a few one hit quitters like Perry, daley, tyron,
 
I'v done it and i never get heavier than 168lbs. But im abnormally strong not just for my size either. I'v seen a buddy of mine who's shorter than me maybe 5'3 but weighs as much as me ...

You've KO'd some UFC HWs with average chins? Or some local bums with no chins?

Rumble couldn't KO glass-jawed (for HW) Arlovski.
 
With the perfect punch where it hits on just the right spot and the HW runs into it and he doesn't see it they probably wouldn't have to be very big or hit the HW very hard.
 
I'm a "Heavyweight" so can speak from some degree of experience... I'm sure 125lb'r could ko if I gave him a flush shot on the chin... ??? Why not?

I'v seen a buddy of mine who's shorter than me maybe 5'3 but weighs as much as me KO a guy we knew who was an all district player in HS football and state alternate as a linebacker so he wasn't a huge huge guy but maybe 6 foot or a bit taller and 230lbs or so of course these dudes werent professional fighters so that does make a difference, not even guys the same size can seem to KO Hunt lol guy was is a monster. Roger Huerta beat the shit outa that football dude in austin and Huerta isnt a big dude himself although hes still probably bigger than i am.


You think Roger would KO Hunt, Big Nog or even Lesnar?

hell no lol didn't I type that in there? must have been in some other post.... I said hunt and lesnar for example aren't just big dudes they are also professional fighters and even guys their own size have a hard time putting them away. some guys just have better chins. maybe if they ran into a perfectly placed shot but other than that most likely not happening.
 
Most HWs can KO each other with one punch with the simple fact that they are huge and throwing huge power behind their punches even if they aren't a known striker. That is why it's more impressive to have an undefeated fight streak at HW than it is at lower weight classes where fighters don't have that 1 punch KO power. At HW even a fighter who isn't a great striker can land that one big punch that puts their opponent to sleep.

Many LHW fighters can obviously KO most HWs, someone like Rumble Johnson who could fight at LHW or HW if he chose. However, some of the lower weight classes couldn't even with their most powerful striker. Power punchers like Robbie Lawler and Romero used straight power and less accuracy for their KO punches. Conor may have great accuracy as does Anderson and both used accuracy more than power to create their 1 punch KO's but I doubt either could 1 punch KO Mark Hunt. Demetrious "Mighty Mouse" Johnson has two 1 punch KO victories but he's not putting any HW out, even someone like a now glass-chinned Overeem.


So, what is the minimum lower weight class fighter does it take to 1 Punch KO an average chinned HW and an iron chinned one like Hunt?

I think you're confusing accuracy with timing. One must be accurate for their power punches to have any effect. However, weaker, properly times shots can end fights
 
I'd say MW and up. Guys below MW on the whole look smaller (no shit) in the 5 foot range. MW and up guys look like men. With hard muscles and nice legs.
I see where this is going...
 
Conor could KTFO out of any HW if hes given a free punch
 
Already mentioned, but Rumble couldn't KO Arlovski. Going the other way Maldonaldo couldn't be KO'd at lbw but Stipe slept him immediately at hw. The bigger lhw's cut weight for good reason.
