Note: “Knockouts” here means KO/TKO wins. KO% definitions vary by source; this calculator uses KO/TKO wins divided by total fights.

Knockout Percentage Formula

The following formula is used to calculate the knockout percentage for a given number of fights and knockouts. 

KP = (K / T) * 100

Variables:

  • KP is the knockout percentage
  • K is the number of knockout wins (typically KO/TKO wins, depending on how the record is counted)
  • T is the total number of fights in the record being analyzed

To calculate the knockout percentage, divide the number of knockout wins by the total number of fights. Multiply the result by 100 to convert it to a percentage. (Some sources define KO% using total wins instead of total fights; if that’s your preferred definition, use total wins as the denominator.)

What is a Knockout Percentage?

A knockout percentage (often written as KO%) is a metric used in combat sports to describe how frequently a fighter’s bouts end in a knockout or technical knockout win. This statistic is particularly relevant in sports like boxing, mixed martial arts (MMA), and kickboxing, where KO/TKO stoppages are a common method of winning a match. In this calculator, knockout percentage is calculated by dividing the number of KO/TKO wins by the total number of fights and then multiplying by 100 to get a percentage. A higher KO% can indicate that a fighter more often ends fights by stoppage, but it does not by itself measure overall skill.

How to Calculate Knockout Percentage?

The following steps outline how to calculate the Knockout Percentage.

  1. First, determine the number of knockouts (K).
  2. Next, determine the total number of fights (T).
  3. Next, calculate the knockout percentage using the formula KP = (K / T) * 100.
  4. Finally, calculate the Knockout Percentage.
  5. After inserting the values and calculating the result, check your answer with the calculator above.

Example Problem : 

Use the following variables as an example problem to test your knowledge.

Number of knockouts (K) = 20

Total number of fights (T) = 25

Knockout Percentage (KP) = (20 / 25) × 100 = 80%
