Carlos Prates sets multiple UFC records with seven knockouts in eight fights

Carlos Prates has set several historic UFC records with his recent performances. He became the fastest fighter in UFC history to achieve seven knockout victories, doing so in just eight fights, surpassing heavyweights like Cain Velasquez and Junior dos Santos who needed nine. Prates also recorded 14 knockdowns in just 17 incomplete rounds, the highest rate per 15 minutes of fight time in UFC history. Additionally, he earned seven Performance of the Night bonuses in only eight fights, nearly twice as fast as the average. The post argues that if Islam Makhachev defeats opponents like Ian Garry, Prates, and Shavkat Rakhmonov, he could surpass Jon Jones in the GOAT conversation. Prates recently knocked out former champions who had never been finished before.
