Eagle FC 47 results and highlights: Junior dos Santos injures shoulder, loses to Yorgan de Castro

Eagle FC 47 is in the books, and let’s just say that the top two fights ended in ways that nobody wanted it to end.

Former UFC heavyweight champion Junior dos Santos suffered a shoulder injury after throwing a punch early in the third and final round of his main event bout against Yorgan de Castro. It looked as if JDS was up two rounds to nil after ten minutes, working his jab and forcing de Castro to switch to southpaw after multiple leg kicks rendered Yorgan stationary. De Castro had some decent moments here and there, usually on the front foot when looking to pressure the Brazilian, but by the end of the second round it was clear the kicks were taking a toll.
