'This Dude Is Legit' - Fans & Fighters React As Carlos Prates Adds Neil Magny To His List Of KO Victims At UFC Vegas 100

The violent start to Carlos Prates' Octagon career continued at the expense of veteran contender Neil Magny at UFC Vegas 100.

And if his brutal finishes of Trevin Giles, Charles Radtke, and Li Jingliang weren't enough to get some aboard the Prates hype train, his quick night at the office opposite "The Haitian Sensation" Saturday night likely did the trick.

The Brazilian immediately had his grappling defense tested by Magny, who looked to avoid his opponent's renowned power at any and all cost.

But the 37-year-old quickly found himself hurt and backpedaling after being struck by the prolific knockout artist. And with short time remaining in round one, "The Nightmare" shut Magny's lights out and faceplanted him with a glancing left hand.

Unsurprisingly, the MMA community was abuzz in the aftermath of the Brazilian's latest display of violence. Both fellow fighters and fans took to social media to express shock and awe.

The common theme? "Legit."

With the result, "The Nightmare's" winning run now stands at 11 straight fights spanning seven years. He's expected to inherit Magny's #15 spot inside the welterweight rankings come next week's update.
