Carlos Prates has achieved several remarkable UFC records in just eight fights. He reached seven UFC knockout victories faster than anyone in history, accomplishing it in eight bouts compared to nine for the previous record holders, both heavyweights. He also accumulated 14 knockdowns in just 17 incomplete rounds, the fastest rate in UFC history and the highest average per 15 minutes of fight time. Additionally, Prates earned seven Performance of the Night bonuses faster than any fighter ever, needing only eight fights versus the typical 15. The post notes that only 2.29% of UFC fighters have ever reached seven knockouts. Prates has knocked out two former UFC champions back-to-back, both via methods they'd never been finished with before, with one notably succumbing to leg kicks.
