Carlos Prates has achieved multiple UFC records at an unprecedented pace, earning 7 knockout victories faster than anyone in promotional history in just 8 fights. Only heavyweights Junior Dos Santos and Cain Velasquez reached that mark faster at 9 fights each. Out of 2,710 fighters who have competed in UFC over 33 years, only 62 have recorded 7 knockouts, representing just 2.29%. Prates also holds the record for fastest to 14 knockdowns, achieving this in just 17 incomplete rounds, giving him the highest average knockdown rate per 15 minutes in UFC history. He has earned 7 Performance of the Night bonuses in 8 fights, when the average fighter requires 15 bouts to accumulate 7 such bonuses. The analysis suggests that if Islam Makhachev defeats both Ian Garry and Prates, he would equal Jon Jones' legacy, and surpass it with a victory over Shavkat Rakhmonov.
