Carlos Prates has achieved multiple unprecedented records in UFC history with his recent performances. He reached seven knockout victories faster than anyone in UFC history, accomplishing it in just eight fights compared to nine fights for the nearest competitors, both heavyweights. Only 2.29% of fighters who have competed in UFC's 33-year history (62 out of 2,710) have reached seven knockouts at all. Prates also set the record for fastest to 14 knockdowns in UFC history, achieving this in just 17 incomplete rounds, giving him the highest average knockdown rate per 15 minutes of fight time ever recorded. Additionally, he earned seven Performance of the Night bonuses faster than anyone, needing only eight fights compared to the average of 15 fights for other fighters. The analysis notes Prates has consecutively knocked out two former UFC champions who had never been knocked out before, representing one of the top three eight-fight runs in UFC history. The commentary suggests if Islam Makhachev defeats Garry, Prates, and Shavkat Rakhmonov, he would equal or surpass Jon Jones's legacy.
