The fighters that reach the limit of 265 pounds are the hardest to knockout due to their weight, so which knockouts of big men were the favorites?

Todd Duffee being knocked out by a punch from Mike Russow and Alistair Overeem
Mike Russow getting Tko'd by Werdum (possibly the only big man yet to be knocked out)
Mark Hunt knocked out by Manhoef
Rothwell, Tim Sylvia and Nelson being knocked out by Arlovski
Antonio Silva getting knocked out by Cormier (but also knocked down by Mike Kyle)

Any other big men 260lbs that got knocked out and fought in the UFC? I dont recall Lesnar being knocked down for example except the kick to the liver by Overeem. If I remember Carwin was knocked down by JDS

Roy KOing Struve.
JDS KOing Werdum.
Hapa KOing Struve.
Carwin KOing Mir.
Cain's pure destruction of Rothwwell,Bigfoot and Lesnar.
Overeem's beatdown on Brock.
Kharitonov KOing Overeem.

That's what I got off the top of my head. I'll come back later when i'm not drunk and stoned.

Though I agree those were great fights and some great KO's, what I mean by "big man" is someone huge who have to cut down to 265lbs, who was knocked out by a great strike

Overeem was a bulked up 205lbs fighter when he was beat,
Mir is probably right at the limit and doesnt have to cut
Struve is not even 265lbs, even though he's as tall as a skyscraper
Cain beat the hell out of all these fighters, but did not KO them

The destruction of bigface was amazing, but I thought we were talking about knockouts.

JDS vs Werdum is one of my all time favourites.
Russow vs Duffee and Browne vs Struve were both epic come-from-behind KOs, so they get points for that.

Every time Schaub gets KO'd it's hilarious.

JDS vs Yvel.

Gilbert was/is a nasty kickboxer and Junior murked him. It was fast, elusive, struck from a mad angle and he had Yvel's chin sat there waiting for it, brutal setup. Really nice exchanges throughout, and against a guy that stylistically was meant to be trouble for the future Champ.

Nog vs Schaub was, as mentioned, highly satisfying. Carwin is a good example, meat and spuds striker who can drop anyone.

^ Ahhh gotta rep for Hunt vs Tuchkchnahjshashewrererer.

Hunt vs Kongo was awesome as well, even if it wasn't a full KO.

One of my favourite KO's was actually Vera vs Justin Eilers.
