Fighter achieves fastest seven knockouts in UFC history across all weight classes

A detailed statistical breakdown reveals that a fighter referred to as "Prates" has set multiple historic UFC records in just eight fights. He achieved seven knockout victories faster than anyone in UFC history, reaching that milestone in eight bouts compared to the previous record-holders, heavyweights Junior Dos Santos and Cain Velasquez, who needed nine fights. Out of 2,710 fighters who have competed in the UFC over 33 years, only 62 have ever accumulated seven knockouts, representing just 2.29% of all fighters. Additionally, Prates scored 14 knockdowns in just 17 incomplete rounds, the highest rate per 15 minutes of fight time in UFC history, and earned seven Performance of the Night bonuses in eight fights when the average fighter needs 15 bouts to accumulate seven such bonuses. The analysis notes he knocked out two former UFC champions back-to-back, both of whom had never been knocked out before, and one was stopped by leg kicks while still in peak form. The post suggests that if Islam Makhachev defeats fighters like Garry, Prates (or Morales/Topuria), and Rakhmonov, he would equal or surpass Jon Jones's legacy and fulfill Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov's dream of Russian MMA surpassing American MMA.
