Middleweight veteran Jacare Souza suffered a damaged bone in his proper arm throughout his combat with Andre Muniz on the ultimate combat earlier than the UFC 262 pay-per-view fundamental card on Saturday. Muniz had trapped Souza’s arm and because the two hit the canvas on the aspect, his arm snapped as he prolonged his hips resulting in him pulling his limb.

Fighter Aljamain Sterling expressed his surprise on the way Jacare tried to twist himself in order to get out of the hold and only ended up injuring himself. He said it might be down to over confidence but that cost him.
It’s very surprising for a BJJ ace like Jacare, to try to stand up in a position like that where his arm is trapped. Maybe we get so good and over confident that we feel we can skip steps to get out of dangerous situations like that one. That cost him big. #UFC262— Aljamain Sterling (@funkmasterMMA) May 16, 2021
