Carlos Prates KO's Neil Magny to cap 2024 with 4-0 record

Going into 2024, very few fight fans were familiar with Carlos Prates. That will not be the case going into 2025.

Prates (21-6) put what will likely be the finishing touch on his 2024 campaign on Saturday, as he knocked out veteran Neil Magny (29-13) with a straight left hand in the main event of UFC Fight Night in Las Vegas. The victory was Prates' first in a UFC main event and moved him to 4-0 in the Octagon this year, with all four wins coming by knockout. It will also likely move Prates into the UFC's top-15 rankings at welterweight.

"I am feeling awesome," Prates said. "This has been the best year of my life, of my career. In 10 months, three [fight night] bonuses. It's been a lot of hard work from me and my team."
