Carlos Prates is one of the best Brazilian prospects in the UFC today

[Ser das Trevas]

I would be surprised if he didn't become a star. He's calm, precise and media-savvy.

 

[Lord Pyjamas]

Very nice setup KO!
Let's see him wrestle next time! But he is a bit old..
Still a fun guy to watch out for in the fights!
Just wish the UFC would bring them in earlier instead of using them as cheap exciting gatekeepers at the end of their careers.

I missed this fight but I remember him. He is a beast, fun style

Must see TV. JBG

 

[USA!USA!]

always fun to see new stars emerge - he has looked very good

 

[Gunsawles]

Im more excited for Mauricio Ruffy

 

[Ser das Trevas]

And there are some who say that "Brazil no longer produces good MMA/UFC fighters like it used to."

 

[Schoolboy Q]

Pretty much all his losses by finish, he’s good but I’m not expecting much.

 

[PEDRO IVO RUSSO MIRANDA]

I already dreaming with Prates vs MVP.
I know they're not close in rankings, but would be an amazing figth, and if it happens, I would like to see it when MVP still in his prime.

Im more excited for Mauricio Ruffy

Another one I'm also looking forward to.

 

[Ser das Trevas]

I may be tripping, but I've rarely seen a fighter with this level of precision and distance control. Maybe only Conor McGregor and Anderson Silva, we all know where they've both gone. Will Nightmare go far?

He fuckin picked Li apart, and then became the first person to end him sir.
Good fight tbf.

Prates' record was bad at the beginning of MMA, he changed gyms, went to Thailand, probably changed his style.

It's cyclical.

It's so cyclical that the early phase of Chimaev's career in 2020 SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY ANYMORE.

Is that what he is now? At 84 kg?

There is not enough current data on this.

 

[Ser das Trevas]

That's why we don't talk about GUYS LOST YEARS AGO.

MMA is very cyclical, I like to see it in a 2-year sample, but at most 3 years.

Talking about fighting in 2019, 2020 and nothing means the same.

 

[Carrotman23]

It should be his coming out moment but other people including Khamzat have ran through The Leech.

Beating the Leech is like beating Neil Magny, okay you got through the gate, now what can you do in real deep water.

 

[KO Shotz]

He's gonna be a title contender sooner than later.

Being the first person to KO Li was impressive, & he not only just caught him with a KO but he beat him tf up.
