#2. Kamaru Usman - UFC welterweight
Kamaru Usman is arguably the best pound-for-pound fighter in the UFC right now. 'The Nigerian Nightmare' dominates his opponents in every fight, and having improved his striking game noticeably, Usman has become one of the most dangerous fighters to step inside the octagon.
Trending
Usman was previously known for his impeccable wrestling chops and explosive energy, which he uses to keep his opponents under constant pressure. Usman's new head coach Trevor Wittman also trains knockout artist Justin Gaethje, and he helped the champ pack fury in his fists.

Usman now has stoppage victories in his last three fights in the UFC. He brutally knocked out the likes of Colby Covington, Gilbert Burns and Jorge Masvidal inside the octagon. Usman's KO of Masvidal is one for the highlight reels. Masvidal, known for knocking people out cold, got put to sleep after eating a vicious right hand from Usman.
He also broke Covington's jaw when the pair locked horns in the octagon. That should tell you something about the kind of violence he brings to the cage every time.
#1. Francis Ngannou - UFC heavyweight
Francis Ngannou is the most dangerous man in the UFC right now. 'The Predator' has the famed touch of death in his hands. Ngannou's fights often end in the blink of an eye because if one good punch by the UFC heavyweight champ lands cleanly, it's good night for his opponents.
Ngannou is the most feared knockout artist in the UFC right now. After getting his revenge against Stipe Miocic by knocking him out cold in their rematch, there's no doubt that Ngannou is the most dominant fighter in the division. He has also improved his kicking and grappling game, as was evident from his last fight.
If he continues to perform the same way that he has been, Francis Ngannou will rule the UFC heavyweight division for years to come. When Ngannou brings his A-game, there's always a spectacular and equally devastating KO around the corner.
