Matt Brown would welcome Carlos Prates breaking his UFC welterweight KO record

UFC veteran Matt Brown has stated he would be happy if Carlos Prates breaks his record for most knockouts in UFC welterweight history. Brown currently holds the record with 13 knockouts, while Prates has seven. Brown expressed admiration for Prates, revealing they have met and that Prates is a fan who studied Brown's instructional DVDs. Brown praised Prates' recent performance against Jack but acknowledged that his upcoming bout with Islam Makhachev represents a significant step up in competition. The post suggests Prates will at minimum tie Brown's record, though surpassing it will be difficult given the rising level of opposition.
