Carlos Prates knocks Neil Magny out cold with one quick punch

Carlos Prates finishes Neil Magny at the end of Round 1 with one punch for the victory in the main event.

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."
