Carlos Prates has achieved the fastest accumulation of 7 knockout victories in UFC history, doing so in just 8 fights. The previous record holders were heavyweights Daniel Cormier and Cain Velasquez, who needed 9 fights. Out of 2,710 fighters who have passed through the UFC roster over 33 years, only 62 have achieved 7 knockouts total, representing just 2.29%. Prates has also recorded the fastest accumulation of 14 knockdowns in UFC history, achieving this in only 17 incomplete rounds, giving him the highest average percentage of knockdowns per 15 minutes of fight time in UFC history. Additionally, he is the fastest to earn 7 Performance of the Night bonuses, doing so in 8 fights compared to the average of 15 fights. He has knocked out two former UFC champions who had never been knocked out before, including one with leg kicks. The post suggests that if Islam Makhachev defeats opponents like Garry and Prates, he could equal or surpass Jon Jones in legacy.
