Multiple UFC fighters broke down Carlos Prates' exceptional knee strike technique following his victory, with particular focus on how the strikes changed the fight. Cory Sandhagen highlighted Prates' unique spring-loaded knee delivery system that generates unusual power without stepping, and noted how Prates cleverly converted the knee threat into high kicks by wrapping around the opponent's head when facing a southpaw. Sandhagen also praised Prates' use of chopping elbows to break through defensive guards. Jorge Masvidal emphasized how the knee threat alone disabled the opponent's offense, comparing the performance to Mortal Kombat and noting Prates' length advantage for his division. Dustin Poirier observed that Prates' confidence in his takedown defense allowed him to throw knees more aggressively.
