I think you're missing the point Sub. Everyone here probably has a pretty good idea of what a knock-out is (ie fighter is unconscious and can't continue) vs a technical knock-out (fighter is conscious but the ref says he can't continue). KO's are commonly referenced in MMA (Sherdog's fight finder for example shows both KO's and TKO's). But Snow Patrol pointed out that the UFC rules do not recognize a KO, and Tejas posted a good explanation as to why. That's the point I think; there really is no such thing as a KO in the UFC, officially.
