Quick read

Carlos Prates has achieved the fastest accumulation of seven knockout victories in UFC history, doing so in just eight fights. The previous record holders were heavyweights Junior dos Santos and Cain Velasquez, who needed nine fights. Only 62 fighters out of 2,710 in UFC's 33-year history have reached seven knockouts, representing just 2.29%. Prates also set records for fastest 14 knockdowns in 17 rounds and earning seven Performance of the Night bonuses in the fewest fights. The post suggests that if Islam Makhachev defeats Garry, Prates, and Shavkat Rakhmonov, he would rival or surpass Jon Jones's legacy.
