This heavyweight bout will create the number one contender in the heavyweight division, which is currently ruled by champion Rizvan Kuniev.
Former UFC heavyweight champion Dos Santos suffered a shoulder injury after punching early in the third and final round of his main bout against Jorgen de Castro. It was as if JDS had climbed two rounds to zero ten minutes later, working from his job and forcing de Castro to head to South Pau after several leg kicks. Make stationery. De Castro had some decent moments here and there, usually on the front foot when he put pressure on the Brazilian, but by the end of the second round, it was clear that the kick was having an effect.
And yet, for 38-year-old Dos Santos, it was his body that broke. His shoulder was gone and you could see the frustration on his face when the doctors tried to get his shoulder back in place, and finally, the fight was over. De Castro won the biggest win of his career, while the JDS dropped five in a row.

Silva shot the weary Lombard from the inside, knocking him down, and after knocking, he threw an illegal knee at Lombard's head. Lombard was given time to recover, but in the end, he did not continue. Lombard might have continued, but that was the end of the contest. Instead of DQ, we don't get any competition, which means that there is a relatively long famine for both men.
