Former UFC heavyweight champion Junior Dos Santos was performing well in the main event of Eagle FC 47 until an unfortunate injury caused an abrupt end to the contest. Dos Santos entered the event aiming to snap a four-fight skid. Standing in his way was Yorgan De Castro, who was making the fight competitive before Dos Santos’ shoulder became dislocated just over a half-minute into the third round. Dos Santos became audibly upset as the realization began to set in that the fight was over because of the injury. Despite his best efforts to pop the shoulder back into place on his own and hope to continue fighting, it did not happen and the fight was stopped. After things settled down, Dos Santos provided an update on his situation via social media.
