Carlos Prates sets multiple UFC records with seven-fight knockout streak

Carlos Prates has achieved the fastest accumulation of seven knockouts in UFC history, doing so in just eight fights. The closest competitors were heavyweights Junior dos Santos and Cain Velasquez who needed nine fights. Out of 2,710 fighters who have competed in UFC's 33-year history, only 62 have ever reached seven knockouts, representing just 2.29% of all fighters. Prates has also set records for the fastest 14 knockdowns in UFC history, accomplished in just 17 incomplete rounds, giving him the highest average knockdown percentage per 15 minutes of fight time. Additionally, he earned seven Performance of the Night bonuses faster than any fighter in history, requiring only eight fights compared to the average of 15. The post suggests that if Islam Makhachev defeats Ian Garry and Prates, he would equal Jon Jones' legacy, and surpass it with a victory over Shavkat Rakhmonov.
