Ranking every front-kick knockout in UFC history: Where does Michael Chandler’s rank?

Michael Chandler reminded the world about the beauty (and brutality) of a well placed and perfectly timed front kick in MMA.

The former Bellator champion and now current UFC lightweight title contender viciously put away UFC staple Tony Ferguson with a front kick to the face at UFC 274 in Phoenix.

The knockout earned Chandler a $50,000 Performance of the Night bonus and automatically entered the shortlist of contenders for Knockout of the Year. The finish is also one of nine stoppages that have come from the use of front kicks in UFC history.

No doubt it was a spectacular finish, but how good was it compared to other front-kick knockouts? Below is a ranking of all nine in UFC history.
