Three Prates opponents suffered first career knockout losses against him

Carlos Prates has an extraordinary record of being the first fighter to knock out several previously durable opponents. Leon Edwards had never been knocked out in 28 fights before facing Prates. Li Jingliang went 27 fights without a knockout loss until meeting Prates. Jack Della Maddalena had never been knocked out on the feet before Prates, with his only TKO loss coming via ground-and-pound when exhausted. This pattern demonstrates Prates' exceptional finishing ability and power, as he has broken through the defensive records of multiple proven veterans. The achievement underscores the danger Prates presents to any welterweight, regardless of their historical durability.
