The Ultimate Fighter Brazil 3 Finale has lost its second main event match-up. Junior dos Santos broke his hand during training and will be unable to fight Stipe Miocic in the TUF Brazil 3 Finale headliner on May 31 in Sao Paulo, Brazil. The Brazilian’s broken hand and withdrawal was first reported by Combate.com , and later confirmed by UFC officials. Dos Santos (16-3) had been hoping to rebound from his second loss to UFC heavyweight champion Cain Velasquez against Miocic, while simultaneously making his first start for the UFC on Brazilian soil. A broken left thumb, however, will reportedly take four to six weeks of rehabilitation, so he had to withdraw from the bout.
