Carlos Prates has set multiple UFC records, including the fastest accumulation of seven knockout victories in just eight fights. He surpassed even heavyweights like Cain Velasquez and Junior dos Santos, who achieved the feat in nine bouts. Prates also recorded the fastest 14 knockdowns in UFC history, doing so in just 17 incomplete rounds, and earned seven Performance of the Night bonuses faster than any fighter in history. He has knocked out two recent UFC champions who had never been finished before, including one by leg kicks. Analysts suggest that if Islam Makhachev defeats elite contenders like Ian Garry, Prates, and Shavkat Rakhmonov, he could surpass Jon Jones as the greatest of all time.
