In the main event at WSOF 14, Ryan Ford came out on the losing end of the stick to Jake Shields.
He was able to drop the American at one point early in the first round, but Shields’ grappling ability proved to be too much for the Canadian and wound up tapping him out with a rear-naked choke late in the first stanza.
Video: Ryan Ford broke arm on Sept. 30, still fought Jake Shields
A video surfaced on the internet following the loss and it was Ford stating that he had broken his ulnar (arm) on Sept. 30.
“Today is Oct. 2, Thursday. Part of this game is putting your body through hard work. And unfortunately, two days ago, on Tuesday, at the end of sparring, I broke my arm. I found that out yesterday after seeing the doctor for my X-ray results.
“You know, I don’t have a choice but to fight,” Ford said. “You know, it’s funny. I have the toughest challenge ahead of me on Oct. 11 against Jake Shields. And now I get thrown with another challenge: fighting him with a broken arm.”
