Carlos Prates becomes first to knockout three previously unfinished strikers

Carlos Prates has accomplished a rare feat by knocking out three fighters who had never been finished by strikes before facing him. Leon Edwards had never lost by knockout in 28 professional fights before Prates stopped him. Li Jingliang also had never been knocked out in 27 fights prior to their bout. Jack Della Maddalena had never been knocked out in standup exchanges, with his only TKO loss coming from ground-and-pound when he was exhausted in a grappling-heavy fight. This achievement underscores Prates's exceptional finishing ability and highlights how he has broken through the defenses of some of the division's most durable strikers.
