Eagle FC 47 Prediction:
When we look at these two competitors side by side, we can see that Santos has a significant size, length, and speed advantage over De Castro. Even considering the kind of opponents Santos has faced in the past and how much he wants this win to put a stop to his losing streak, we still think that Dos Santos is the superior fighter.
Prediction: Junior dos Santos will win the fight.
