Carlos Prates has achieved the fastest accumulation of seven knockout victories in UFC history, accomplishing this in just eight fights. This breaks the previous record held by heavyweights who needed nine fights. Out of 2,710 fighters who have competed in the UFC over 33 years, only 62 have achieved seven knockouts, making it a rare accomplishment. Prates also holds the record for fastest accumulation of 14 knockdowns in UFC history, achieving this in just 17 incomplete rounds—the highest average knockdown rate per 15 minutes of fight time. Additionally, he earned seven Performance of the Night bonuses faster than any fighter in UFC history, needing only eight fights compared to the average of 15. The post suggests that if Islam Makhachev defeats Ian Garry, Prates, and Shavkat Rakhmonov, he would rival Jon Jones's legacy.
