Carlos Prates has achieved historic milestones in record time across multiple UFC statistical categories. He became the fastest fighter to accumulate seven knockout victories in UFC history, reaching that mark in just eight fights—faster than any other fighter including heavyweights like Junior dos Santos and Cain Velasquez who needed nine bouts. Only 2.29% of all UFC fighters in history have managed seven knockouts at all. Prates also set the record for fastest accumulation of 14 knockdowns, achieving it in under 17 full rounds, giving him the highest knockdown rate per 15 minutes in UFC history. Additionally, he earned seven Performance of the Night bonuses faster than anyone, needing just eight fights compared to the typical 15. His recent victories include back-to-back knockouts of former UFC champions who had never been knocked out before. The post suggests that if Islam Makhachev defeats both Ian Garry and Prates, he would equal Jon Jones' legacy, and defeating Shavkat Rakhmonov would surpass it.
