Carlos Prates has made a huge splash in the UFC welterweight division. Before his fight at UFC Vegas 100, Carlos was on a roll with a series of knockouts. His opponent, Neil Magny, is known for his skills in stopping up-and-coming fighters. But Carlos had other plans. He showed that his power couldn't be ignored when he knocked out Magny in the first round.

This win added to Carlos' impressive record, making it 20-6 and four straight knockouts in the UFC. His nickname "The Nightmare" now means business.

When the fight ended, social media exploded with reactions from other pros. Former UFC champ Henry Cejudo tweeted, "Carlos Prates has a very bright future in the UFC. Welterweights beware! "

Some fighters had fun with their posts. Belal Muhammad joked, "What if cigarettes is the secret. " He also suggested a new match-up: "Magney vs Tony Ferguson. "

Renato Moicano praised Carlos, saying, "Carlos Prates is the real deal! " But Mike Davis sparked controversy with, "Did Neil Magny just take a dive? ! "

Terrance McKinney is looking forward to seeing Carlos fight Randy Brown. He tweeted, "Prates has nasty power, still wanna see that Randy Brown match up. "
