Carlos Prates has achieved several historic UFC milestones in just eight fights. He reached seven knockout victories faster than anyone in UFC history, accomplishing this in eight bouts compared to the previous record of nine fights held by heavyweights Junior dos Santos and Cain Velasquez. Prates also set the record for fastest accumulation of 14 knockdowns, achieving this in just 17 incomplete rounds, and holds the highest average knockdown rate per 15 minutes of fight time in UFC history. Additionally, he earned seven Performance of the Night bonuses in record time, nearly twice as fast as the average of 15 fights needed by other fighters. The analyst suggests that if Islam Makhachev defeats Ian Garry and Prates, he would equal Jon Jones' legacy, and surpass him with an additional victory over Shavkat Rakhmonov.
