Carlos Prates has achieved unprecedented knockout records in UFC history faster than any fighter before him. He became the fastest to reach seven UFC knockout victories, doing so in just eight fights—faster than heavyweights like Junior Dos Santos and Cain Velasquez who needed nine. Prates also recorded 14 knockdowns in under 17 total rounds, the highest rate per 15 minutes of fight time in UFC history. Additionally, he earned seven Performance of the Night bonuses faster than anyone, requiring only eight fights compared to the average 15. The analysis describes Prates' eight-fight run as one of the top three most spectacular debuts in UFC history, noting he consecutively knocked out two UFC champions who had never been knocked out before. The post suggests that if Islam Makhachev defeats fighters like Garry, Prates, and Rakhmonov, he would equal or surpass Jon Jones' legacy.
