Carlos Prates sets UFC records for fastest 7 knockouts and 14 knockdowns

Carlos Prates has achieved the fastest accumulation of seven knockout victories in UFC history, doing so in just eight fights. The closest competitors were heavyweights Junior dos Santos and Cain Velasquez, who needed nine bouts. Of the 2,710 fighters who have competed in the UFC over 33 years, only 62 have recorded seven knockouts, representing just 2.29 percent. Prates also set the record for fastest 14 knockdowns in UFC history, accomplishing this in just 17 incomplete rounds, and the fastest seven Performance of the Night bonuses. The post suggests that if Islam Makhachev defeats Ian Garry and then Prates, he would equal Jon Jones's legacy, and if he also beats Shavkat Rakhmonov, he would surpass Jones entirely.
