Carlos Prates Just Became The First Man To Ever Knock Out The Leech
CARLOS PRATES IS THE REAL. DEAL. Get the celebration cigs ready now....
Prates is now 3-0 in the UFC with 3 knockouts (4-0 with 4 knockouts if you count the Contender Series) and he just became the first fighter to ever finish "The Leech" aka Li Jingliang with strikes. Easily the best opponent he's ever faced, and he put an exclamation point on the finish, too! Prates really pieced Jingliang up bad for two rounds, dropping him multiple times like a predator playing with its prey before a kill, and then Prates KO'd him with a vicious hook that left The Leech unconscious for at least a minute.

Even Renato Moicano appreciated the work he saw in that cage, vowing to swear off training for his next fight in favor of cigs!
