Boxing is a brutal sport and has its share of devastating ko's. I don't watch kickboxing much or MMA but when a guy gets kicked in the face the ko looks so much more vicious.

a kick with a bare shin is obviously more powerful than a punch with a gloved hand. i still think the hardest impact in MMA is a slam. watch this:
this was in an organization called pride, which allowed for a lot less wrestling because you could kick and knee a "grounded" opponent. rampage jackson KO ricardo arona.
that said, headkick knockouts in mma are rare. most of the stoppages in MMA, at least when i watched it regularly, were of the variety where a fighter would get hurt on his feet with a punch or punches, and be stopped quickly when he went down and took a few more punches.
